  8. Dont be bashfull boys and girls. Register and come to the drags!!!! I know some folk think that this is only for the "HAMB Cool kids" but dweebs are welcome as well [​IMG]

    Seriously, if you are hesitant, you wont find an event with less ego,posturing or spraying than the DRAGS. We will have fun, I am roasting a 200 pound porker in a pit. Come and be sociable.

    this dweeb just doesn't have enough fun tokens to swing the trip at 10 MPG at two somthin a gallon, for one (albeit good) day of fun. it'd be a different story if i knew i wouldn't break it racing but i can't risk having to try to figure out hauling it home! and my car still has it's billet wheels on! [​IMG]
     
  10. I'll be there, but I don't know what I'll be driving. [​IMG] The Roadster's up on jacks. The Rocky Rambler was just removed from the barn yesterday, after a 10 month rest, the 18 Dodge Mod hasn't even been started on, (still yard art) And the Minibike isn't painted, and it's in pieces. I've spent way too much time working on other people’s cars, to work on my stuff. Right now the Rocky Rambler looks to be my best bet. It hasn't been driven, or started in over 10 months, until yesterday. It did start on the third crank when I removed it from the barn after all that time, amazing! [​IMG] If I bring the Rambler, it'll be on a trailer. I don't own one, so there's another problem. I want to have a good day at the drags, so driving a car that's not proven, isn't going to happen. I don't need to miss the drags because of a broken down car. So I'll be there. Dean [​IMG]

    I know about 5 of my Missouri buddies going that aren't registered. (they're rebels...) I figure for every one registered, there are at least two people going that aren't. Should be a pretty good turn out.

    By the way, Root, the Henry J is NOT going to make it. A guy from Massechusetts saw it on the Gasser Madness site and decided it needs to go home with him. Done deal. She's gone... [​IMG]

    Are you kidding me???

    That car was the one I was itching to see run at the HAMB Drags this year.

    I sure hope someone else is bringing something new that they built.

    Guys..I'm SORRY. I know I'm a panty-waist bitch. I built this car for the sole purpose of waxin ass at the Drags, but I couldn't pass up this guys offer. I can build my next two cars with the money the Henry went for.


    For the record, the Henry would have DESTROYED all competition in the street class. This car would wax the shit out of my Model A with out breaking a sweat. The car is truly insane...

    If it is any consolation, I will be there in the Model A again this year, lookin for a shot at the title. Also, this winter, the Model A gets a quick change w/ nasty "Joplin Gears" for whuppin ass and a puss gear for gettin there.

    AND, I'm workin on a deal for a 53 Studebaker basket case. Look for her to make the S. Carolina- Bonneville- HAMB Drags run for 2006....Stay tuned...

    SAM. I thought you were not gonna make it this year? If you show up and I don't have the Henry, I will feel like a DOUBLE panty-waist bitch.

    Will you all love me anyway??? -Abone.

    Yeah yeah...it was the fastest car blah blah blah.....I can't believe you did this to me!! [​IMG] I have my dad all stoked about seeing this car.

    So did this guy just approach you or were you trying to save the thrashing you were gonna get from Rocky's old Rambler?

    The fact that I'm afraid of the Rambler had nothing to do with it...



    Actually, I bumped in to this guy on the Gasser Madness site. I sent him a pic and he said, I'll take it, NOW! He has a Nostalgia Drags in two weeks and wanted the car in time to shake out any bugs and get used to the car etc...

    I truly feel like a puss. My kid was PISSED. I'll have to let him drive it tommorrow before it goes....(yea, he just turned 7. He is a DRIVER, BABY!!!)

    Save me a spot at the puss bitch table...-Abone.
     
  24. Man, I dont feel like such a heel for not having the T done now! [​IMG]

    I will be standing next to 'abone in the male pussy section of the track.

    Flamedabone, tell him to bring it to the drags. It should have been in the deal for him to shake it down at MO-KAN.

    Surely SOMEONE ELSE will bring a Henry-J for me to grudge race in memory of my old buddy Jerry,(Branson). I Still miss the phone calls.

    Glad to see it financed the trip, and a couple more hot rods. Looks like you got it going on. Sell one for enough to build two. Thats what I should do.

    See you in Joplin, McCray
     
  26. I was going to fly out to see you run... but now I'll just save my money and come out in a couple years to race something. [​IMG]

    Ok, just kidding... but your Henry J was the car I was most itching to see run... lets just hope some others get built for this years drags.

    Also... about it being able to whup up on your Model A... well, I guess I believe it when I see timing slips.

    I ain't doubting your abilities one bit... but your Model A ran good... when and where is the guy going to race it??
    Maybe you can report back to us on how it does.

    Sam.
