Day of the Drags - Start your engines!!!

Cool. I talked to Mr. Merc50 last night and he wasn't sure who was coming. Hope ya'll make it. Is Elrod gonna be working on his new project, or is he thinkin' on coming down as well?

 

Looks like a several of the Chups will be there. Last time I talked to the Reirsons they were planning on bringing their Junior fuel front engine dragster. I know quit a few of the guys have been getting thier cars ready for this since last year! Cant wait!

That's good news Boom Boom!
The more dragsters the better!
The more Chups the less beer for everyone else!

 

Outstanding. I figured he was wrong, but I wanted to make sure. Glad ya'll Northies are coming down.

 

thanks outlaw. back seat's better than a ****** or whatever the **** a compact ford rental is... course, i could always race in the rental cl***........naw

by the way, i'll be in thurs a.m.

 

If any of your hot rods get a little sick at the track and you need to leave it behind, I have enough room to securely store it. Hopefully no one will need it...but just in case you do, just look for me at the track.

Electrical problems are worked out and I should be rollin in on Friday night.Lefty should be riding shotgun.

I only got one race thats planned and thats against a Hudson that did'nt learn his lesson last year.

I did'nt book a room but figure I'll find a place when I get there. B*** found a cheap little place south of the club at last years Roundup. I think he said its called Executive suite.Super cheap.Austin guys, anyone ever been killed there.

 

Not this week.

 

What's your local weather man saying?
The weather channel goes from one end of the spectrum to the other...daily.

 

i'm an hour south of the track....local forecast said last night rain friday night.....partly cloudy and in the 60's Saturday with only a 20% chance of rain.....but ... we are in Texas...so the forecast means ****... a front is supposed to move through thursday afternoon - so thursday and friday rain chances high....Sat. looks good so far and cooler less humid weather for the drags! ( we are at about 85% humidity right now)
Damn i can't wait for Sat.!

I booked a room at the Best Western on South I35, not far from the club, $53 a night. Hotel phone # 512-447-5511

 

It's upposed to have an 80% chance of rain here in OKC, that's what was worrying me. We are about 5 hours North.

 

who is leaving on saturday morning? it would be nice to cruise together.

 

They forcasted 50% chance today here in Austin and we have'nt had a drop.
It's at 20% Saturday. It's gonna be fine.

 

I'm counting on it.......
I don't care if it rains cats and dogs on Sunday or Friday...it can be cloudy ALL day...just keep the track dry!!

How many 8x8 blue tarps would it take to go a 1/4 mile?

 

20% chance...It'll be dry...if for some freak reason it does rain it will be the ****tered variety and will p*** quickly......should be a good fast track with the cool weather..... is anyone bringing a digital video recorder?
or are the Kontinentals planning to make one?

 

165 blue tarps to cover the 1320, and thats not counting the burnout box, staging lanes, ar shutdown. Plus it's only 8' wide... lol

I THINK IT'LL BE FINE SATURDAY...

 

How's the traffic coming into Ft. Worth? Are the roads still under eternal construction?
Unfortunately, I will hit FT worth at 5:30 p.m. Friday afternoon......

 

Hey RootHawg!, You will be OK up until the Raceway. After that its gonna **** until you get through CowTown. I figure your comin down 35. 5:30 on Friday is not a good time anywhere trafficwise. Make sure you have a cold RC and a moonpie to p*** the time and dream about burnin up that quarter mile!

 

Instead of racing for pink slips, Outlaw and Flatblack should race for birth certificates and the loser has to change his name...

 

ive got 50 dollars on tyler!!!

 

Hey Mr.Fatlucky, you'll have the sparkly bike for the weekend...I am spraying the silly art cl*** flake on it tonight.

-Jason

 

Well, looks like I'm moving all our stuff into the new house on Saturday afternoon. Gonna regret not being there!

 

I want some of that action kartbraker, I don't think Tyler can take him so I'll go $50 on Tyler.

Jason I have some stailess spreader bar tubing for you.
I'll try to remember it on Saturday.

Elrod your gay.

 

i hope big ric is ready. you know those fat 40's
have a lot of wind resistance over those big fenders!!
i'm ready to see kartbreaker's t in action!

 

to see kartbreaker's T in action you'll have to video tape it and then replay it in slow-mo

S.R.T.!!!

 

poor little death rod...she still aint running right.insted of running like a scaulded *** ape...shes running like a scaulded apes ***. but i still have a few tricks up my sleave.

 

I'll be there. There is a group from Houston leaving from 290 and 2920 at the LUV's Truck Stop. We will be leaving from there at 7:00 Saturday morning driving to the track. Anyone leaving from the area is welcome to join the caravan. See yall at the track!

 

All looks pretty set for this weekend. Cool front just came thru, humidity and temp is dropping. The event shirts just arrived, got the stamping set for the timing plaques today and just got the 100 MPH Club patches in and they are pretty slick and gonna be a coveted item for those of you who can p*** the century mark in the 1/4. Talked to Merc Charlie today and his little T may be the car to beat....new cam, new posi r/e, and few other hop ups to make that thing even faster than it was before. I better get busy in the back yard if Ol' Gold's gonna earn a patch.
