    Well I finally got a chance to post some pics of the HAmb Drags and our trip to and from. As you all know my truck was unable to make it due to some motor issues so i decided to go ahead and go and take the late model. Made the wife alot happier though ot atleast alot cooler. I thought Missouri was supposed to be cooler. Anyhow we had no problems on the way up or down but during the cruise my pops Master Cylinder decided it wanted to take a dump. After about 20 miles into the cruise there was no more clutch. We ran into a Local Napa thinking great what better of a Auto Parts Store to have. well they did not have a master cylinder but had a slave cylinder. So we thought maybe it was the slave cylinder. No could not be that easy. 70.00 dollars later and still no worky. So he limped it back to the motel and after driving to about 10 other auto parts stores we finally found one, changed it out, and we were of to the drags. I guess it lasted long enough, trip to Paso Robles, CA two trips to bowling Green, KY, Austin, Tx and many others. At the track the Car ran real good just those bias ply tires sure like to spin half way down the track. Pops even let me take a few spins it it. Wow what a blast. Sure want to build something fast for next year. Anyway heres some shots we got. Had a blast and glad we got to put some faces with names here on the Hamb. 3-wlarry. Thanks for the beer at the track and glad we got to meet all the hambers we made it around to.

    Larry cant wait to see your ride traveling next year. Wow it is gonna be awesome. Monkeys truck was one of my favorites. Never knew that was his. Nice interior too. That panel truck was burning them tires up all night. Loved to see it run. Hope you guys made it back to Colorado okay.

    Reggie it is funny you say that. I had to go to Paso Robles to meet Mercury Charlie. I had to go to Missouri to meet you. Arent we all from texas? Ha ha. Kindoff funny. I guess all that matters is we know each other now. Your car looked great up there even going down the track.

    Tman,
    glad we could run together. I was having a blast driving Graham's car like "I stole it"...kinda did, since he can't drive it(just wished I fit in it). There sure is a neat at***ude at these things.
