It is about time to start our list of who is planning to come to the races on May 6&7. Please post back here and let us know you are coming. With only a couple races on the schedule this year, lets try and have some good turnouts at these events. We will have decent payouts for winners and runner-ups. Payouts for the slower car that goes the furtherest. Plus some great gifts from Gill Welding for the Winner & R/U.

I have had multiple e-mails into Elmer about running 1/8 Mile on Saturday and 1/4 mile on Sunday. That is still what I will try to do if he allows it. It probably will be fine but no guarentee.

So who all is coming?

Rick Covalt- 65 Valiant
Ryan Covalt - My Truck
Andrew Shank
Greg Ondayko
Lou Ladsen
Dan/Mandi Gravatt
Brian Droschak
Brian Mimken- Can't make it
Charlie Schmid - No car

Matt Deemer - No
Phil Stoneback- No
Ken Anderson ??
Derrick Sword- No

I'm going to try. Won't know till it gets closer. Engine is still out of car and not fully assembled.
Come on folks, if I can make it about 900 miles from Florida, you "locals" can show up.

I plan on going with Ruster.
It is currently not broken which is good.
I never did get the Edge Converter ordered, just too much el$e going on, but I can get it out of storage in the next week or 2, Throw the Proper tires and wheels on then hopefully can hit a Local TNT before towing out.

I know of a few other "locals" in the Covalt clan who have some slant 6 vehicles too :-)

Maybe they can come and race?

If the weather looks good all weekend, that is my plan! I really do not want to get this thing very wet or dirty. Sounds weenie I know, but it is 89 years old...

Finally heard back from Elmer and it looks like we can run 1/8th mile Saturday and 1/4 mile Sunday. So anyone looking to break some record here is your chance. :D
