    32 miles of pure, unadulterated hell :(. I must admit that I was able to hitch a few rides along the way. Those and the bars I ran across that sold 25 cent tap beer were all that saved me ;).
     
  3. You better be ready and sitting the curb waiting when i pull up

    I only have pickled eggs....we will have to keep windows rolled down...
     
  7. I was thinking trail mix, pretzels etc. Maybe you’d better start walking now
     
  8. Anyone from the Milwaukee area going down that could relay a std trans to KY? If so give me a shout. @Bird man has a tranny I need and I will be going by Lloyds at the end of the month.

    Bill's Auto Works and scotty t like this.
  10. How late do you guys plan on drag racing.
    Probably will arrive Friday night
    Driving my OT. :(
     
  11. Well it is with great sorrow that I have to admit that I will be coming in one of my OT GMC transporting trucks! I tried my very best with the time I had to get the Nash or the GP to the point that I could trust them, but just couldn't do it!!!

    I will say that my Wife Laura has been So Very Supportive, she told me last night that " You tried your best & we will still have a great time meeting the folks from the HAMB "& you have all winter to finish/build the cars you have started! Guys...I am so blessed to have a woman like this & we WILL have a great time over the next 4 days!!!!

    Faced with the choice of putting the XLR-V in the trailer & making a couple of passes in the mid 12's or driving her 2020 Subaru down....I opted to drive one of my transporting trucks to at least save face! LOL

    Can't wait to put faces to names & spend some "Bench Racing" time with everyone who attends as well as seeing some of the guys I have met when I got the chance to transport their babies!!!

    I was really close & will gladly take the ribbing associated with NOT bringing a car, but had I made time to finish one of mine...Someone else would have not received one of theirs in a timely fashion! :p:rolleyes::D

    God Bless

    It'll probably be late, all depends on the weather at this point, showing rain tmrw night and Friday morning, but he's advertising a race Friday night, usually just a trophy race and test and tune, here's what he's showing for Friday and Saturday

    Glad you still coming down Bill
    It’ll be great to meet a fellow Ohioan.
    Your wife IS a keeper.
    Mine too!!
     
  19. Well... what I am driving to Lloydfest might not fit, but I think they are cool, because they continue to get my sorry @ss around the country & back to the tune of 600,000+ miles on each!:D

    What ever it takes to get there, because you know we are going to have a blast!

    God bless

    Picked up another $435 in donations from Williams paint supply today. He donated a full set of buffing compounds, 3 bottles, package of foam pads, a 7" buffer, 2 t-shirts, and a Sata go pro camera :D Lewis flooring donated a Dewalt cordless drill driver kit, and I've got a shit ton of tools to give away. Trying to do better than the normal bottle of car wash soap lol. Went over to the track to talk to Tim some more. Asked if we can build a fire, he said "you better! Have you seen what the temperature is gonna be lol"
