    That's the girls weekend in East Tawas at our beach cottage. Maybe Megan and I can escape for a couple of hours one of the days.

    In my mind the Flathead Nationals will always be the drag race at Bandimere Speedway. Of course, its official name is the High Al***ude Flathead and Inline Nationals, but it has always been called the Flathead Nationals. It's kind of like having a car show called The March Meet. Just ain't the same.

    So, do you need to present yourself as stupid, unable to grapple with grammar and spelling to be into flatheads? If so, I may have to change the power plants in my two old Fords.:confused:

    "Only flathead powered vehicles can compete for prizes"
    Shouldn't that be may?:D

    Just found out about this via the GMB Social Group. It is near me but I have non flatty unless I drive a tractor! The boys and I may stop by just for the ambiance.

    And yes, it is the inaguaral event, whatever they are calling it.

    I wasn't trying to be a smart ***. There already is an event popularly known as the Flathead Nationals. It's drag race held by the group formerly known as the Flatheaders of Denver, now called the Vintage Drag Racing ***ociation.

    My question about the drag race was a serious one. If there is a drag race, I will list it in the schedule of nostalgia drag races on my web site. If it doesn't, I won't because I don't list car shows that don't have a drag race as well. It's that simple. It sounds like there isn't a drag race, but I wanted to be sure.

    God knows, I love flatheads and hope the event is a screaming success.
