Kearney... Hmmm... I need to decide and discuss with the wife. That is our vacation weekend away from the kids to Brainard International Raceway.

If you guys can promise me a few days of fun and things that should never be discussed again I may be able to talk her into it.

Chris,

If half the people come who say they will, we will have a blast. The Slanted Family does not disappoint. You will see some wicked Slant 6 iron go head to head, and learn a ton about good people and good engine+car building tricks. Mike Jeffrey is in the top 3 Slant 6 engine builders in the country, and is hosting this race.

I will be bringing my '68 Dart (currently residing in Minneapolis) and Seymour will bring a car from Minn. We could maybe caravan out together. There should be several people coming from TX, IL, IA, SD, in addition to a few from the East and the West.

Cheers,

Lou

You dont necessarily have to bring a slant car.......


Ive been to both a western and eastern race without a slantcar.

Its worth meeting the people and seeing their junk. I like to think I can drink their beer as well.


You can just fly in and join the Enterprise Rentals Racing Team. Thats what the Big Name racers do....

I had real fun a couple of years ago in Las Vegas just helping out racers.

I now put "Recurving Distibutors In the Wild With Doug Dutra " on my resume.....I came home with enough confidence to do mine...

By actively helping you can steal everyones good ideas and avoid everyones bad ideas. .....like tipis in the pits nstuff....

:?: Chris, if you make it out to Kearney, I promise I can answer any of your questions just like zombies that you'll see at BIR........

:shock: "Rick, is your butt on fire!!??"

:roll: "Well Chris, the Texas Pooper Scooper team is working really hard, and we're coming together as a team (clumsely insert sponser stroke here), we've been doing some testing, (clumsely insert sponser stroke here), and I just wanna say high to Roscoe's second cousin, once removed, who shot himself in the leg trying to clean his pistol while drinking Poweraide..............." :lol:

Lou, Sounds great!

Well I would love to See Sams car In person,, Haven't seen him around here on the forum in a while.. But His car seems like a whole lot of modern retrofit trickery... Like somethin you would see in hotrod or Car craft.


this 10 second cunda sounds interesting too.


Greg

You can also be a part of dismantling a free Slant motor to get it into the side door of the wife's new Chrysler minivan. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Talked to Mike tonight and he is very excited about this race.

I promised Mike that I would be there either with the Daytona or the red car. I have not disassembled any part of it yet just in case. :shock:

There will also be a trip to the local Pizza Hut on Saturday night for those interested.

Wonder if they will have a great salad like the one in Winchester? :D :D :D

Wow. Aug 15,16. We have Woodburn the 8th and 9th, then Medford the 29th and 30th.

That's a heck of a load for August, but could be tweaked into a long bit of vacation.

Lemme think on it. :?
