Great, glad you can make it. The more the merrier.

Still haven't got to test the new engine. Rained out, again, last night.

Track rained out again. Looks like I'm coming up with a untested powerplant.

Good news Ryan. I think we are going to have a good number of cars. Four rounds Friday and Saturday. See you there.

I plan on coming to at least see everyone and spectate.
It's the closest meet to my house, so how could I miss?

I'm working every available moment on the Valiant, but I don't yet know if it will be ready for the trip. It's getting closer, and I hope to be able to at least do some around-town jaunts before trying to make it that far. New engine isn't even broken in yet...

I'll probably bring a few extra parts as well if anyone wants.

Sadly, I will not make it to this race. :cry: Anna and I are in the middle of gutting the kitchen in our new home in the mountains, and we are hoping to finish moving in by the end of next week. I was really looking forward to this new race. :evil:

Best of luck to everyone!

Been watching the weather and conversing with Charlie S..

the wife and I and friends are definately still in for the road trip to Crossville,,

the weather looks great on Friday,, Saturday not as much...

if the forecast says the same,, is it possible that Friday and Saturday's schedule would be compressed into one day, Friday?

Just asking...
