There are events all through the summer. Picking a date that does not conflict with some of them is impossible. The one contributing factor is picking a date that is open at the track. In that light, I would suggest contacting Carl to find a date that is available, then go for it. Any one of us will pick the event that is most important to him or her. What ever the date for the HAMB drags, I am there. Quote JimC, I like that photo too.... I wonder who took it? One clue! She makes AWESOME cookies!!! Jim
August is fine it seemed to work last year. Id rather take a chance on running in the heat, then having it moved up and it ******* on us and not running at all. Either way Ill be there.
Do we have an idea yet? I got a vacation request notice from the boss man, and would like to tell him when... Don't matter if it's approved, I'm gonna be there! Jay
A quote from Mike Bishop, AV8, on another thread that I thought I'd stick here incase Ryan is keeping track of how many want what dates and the exciting possiblities that could happen IF the drags are held the weekend after Speed Week. [ QUOTE ] If the HAMB drags are the weekend after Speed Week it's entirely possible that the Pacers roadster could be there. Gene Gilmore, who has ramrodded the restoration and has stewardship of the car will be at Bonneville with the Tardel-McKenzie crew, as will several others who are old Pacers. BTW, the roadster is not likely to equal its early performance. The new motor isn't nearly as crafty as the old one. In fact it's very close to being a stone-stock 327. It will be run on alcohol, however. Still, the BFD will probably kick its ***. FWIW, I plan on attending the HAMB drags if they are the weekend at the end of Speed Week. I'll have my own transportation this year and can hang out whenever, wherever. and with whomever I want! [/ QUOTE ] I certainly don't want to wish the summer away but August can't get here soon enough for me
Hey my ******* cruisin friend. Can I ***ume that you want to do the HAMB Drags on the way back from Wendover? I'm good with that date, just seems so far off. The PknBner
He guys, I haven't forgotten ya.... I am working with track owner now... Looks like Aug 21, but that could change...
