Event Coverage Run What Ya Brung Nostalgia Drags- Reynolds, GA Nov 8,2014

Saturday night bump. Where's Speedy? Where's Stewed and Burnout??

 

I am here. Wife & I took a day cruz. Then stopped by at one of our local CRUZ-ins. Been gone all day. So lets fire back up the trash talking. I am like Wendy's take a # and get in line. I am looking forward to turning the can of worms into, fish bait. And Brads monster, into BAD A,s warm up race. Then again If I lose. I guess you can call me CALM A

 

Oh Hell!!!!!!!! Speedy is back, and the trash talk resumes1

 

This you Speedy?



Anywho...



Days To Go KL

 

No not me.

 

this is one of my buddies here. I am in the black jacket with the white strip.

 

Been goofing off and enjoying good roadstewr driving weather last few days, but I'm getting back on BGII preparations today. When you get as old and slow as I am, it takes 2 days to do what shoulda took 2 hours! LOL
Mulette, have you made a trial fit on those trailer fenders??

 

It's about to rain here. I was just about to head out to see if I can get some door prizes from some local parts houses and speed shops. I guess that will have to wait until tomorrow. Hopefully I can procure another free Dyno Run for the main door prize again.

Trying to find more past pics and keep this up top

 

Man what happened? It sure is quite in here.

 

I am here Speedy. Just trying to figure out a way to make a package shelf in the '35. That way I can have some Kleenex in the back gl*** for those I do outrun

 

I can't call Josh out till I make sure I can get down the track

 

Awesome! Is Josh planning on bringing the digger too?

 

Yea I might need some. I heard there may be, a low flying leer Jet for me to run.

 

If not I will run you. 1/8 mile only. My **** is a brick in the 1/4. Do you want me to add you to the list?

 

Maybe Hog Mtn Dave is coming too He'll run ya. Bad thing is being a driver, you miss watching a lot of races.

 

Yea I know. My wife gets to watch all the racing. Maybe I will just trade places with her. She can run the truck, & I can watch.

 

Nah too much fun to not drag some *** I'd feel too much like a wallflower if I let my better half have all the fun I just need to get her a better camera/video recorder

 

uh-oh.

I think I've got you covered by a few HP and potentially a few lbs

 

You are probably right. But give me the punch, & run 1/8 mile and we are on. I can add you to the list if you like.

 

Didn't read all the way back - but what bolt pattern is on BGII Dave? Might be able to bolt on my slicks.

 

Tony, my 10.5X 29.5 Hoosiers are already mounted on my 10" American Racing "Daisy" wheels which are 4.5" bolt patteren with about 3" backspace, and they clear the wheel arch panel by about 1.250" which I think is just about right. The tires have been used, but they still have all the wear indicator holes on them. I plan to bolt them on @ shop and load on the trailer for the trip down.Thx for the offer though.
Scot is the one needing slicks.

 

Ok Scot what is your bolt pattern? There are 2 different ones in my Palamides. 5 on 5.5 and something else ....

 

Thank you for asking Tony, but come to find out my bolt pattern is 5 on 4 3/4". Sounds like yours are possibly drilled for 5 on 5" and 5 on 5 1/2"

 

Here's one for Dave









Days till go time!!!

 

Ain't Guilty!! Not me!!!!! Only t5i 5 I everowned was a dirt oval car. But the color was almost the same. When it came time to paint it, one of the guys came up with a gallon of Sherwin-Williams indusrial enamel in the safety orange color. We kept that up even when it got to where we had to find a Sherwin Williams dealer that would order it for us..

 

Yeah Dave I found that pic online this morning. I figured you would get a kick out of it. I didn't think it was you though, cause in '70 you were just a Dirty Young Man LOL Great story on the tri 5 you did own. Got any pics of your roundy round days?

 

Everybody help me bump this thread today like a race cam. KL
