Ok, I'll post all the new info and updates for Mason Dixon II here. It looks like some new folks are already planning to come. I'll start the list and we will add to it as people chime in.

Current list that I think are planning to come.

Seymour Pederson
Ron Rarker
Ron Hamby
Brian Mimken
Ryan Covalt
Rick Covalt
Lou Madsen 1
Lou Madsen 2
Fzmax
Greg Ondayko
Phil S
Romeo Furio

4-5 local folks ( Please post here and let us know your coming)

Maynard Gress ?
Charles Brooks Jr. (Big Slant Fan)?
Chris (from 10 minutes away)?
Thomas Heflin ?
Others I can't recall

More details to come.

I am working on some Tee shirt designs and I am going to try and sell them and make some $$ and donate all of the profits to this race. Of course anyone who wants to add a few bucks towards the purse please let me know. Last year we had about a $700 payout. Hopefully we can get close to that again. I really think we could have 14-16 racers pretty easily since we had 9 last year. The track gave us a 100% payback on our entry fee so that would be $550 right there.

I'm starting to get excited again!! :lol: :lol:

Chris - AKA Valiant one! You need to get in on this you cheeseball!


I know it's a real far drive for you and all :roll:

How are things with your 4 speed dart!

Hope to see you there, ahem, I mean you better be there or we're sending out the search party!

I'm planning on being there with my Volare. Dan is planning on coming but he will most likely be racing his 65 Belvidere.

Dan is a V8 guy. He was really impressed with how I got my Valiant to move but it was still "only" a 16 second car. He wants to run 13's. I keep trying to point out to him that my convertable is probably only an 18 second car but I can start and DRIVE it anytime I want, my Volare is probably only an 18 second car but it will be inspected and legal in a few days. He has a 65 barracuda he can't drive, a 65 Belvidere he can't drive and a 70 Barracuda covertable that dosent run well enough to take to a cruise night. He has spent countless hours and $$$ on all 3 of them but well...

We'll keep workin' on ol' Joesnow...

I hope to have 3 Slant cars in the 14s or better this year. Maybe one 13s, one 14s, and one 15s if I'm realistic. Two of them can be driven 2000+ miles at the drop of a hat.

I penciled in that race, as something to shoot for, as far as having a car and money ready. Very iffy though. It's a long tow for me.

I've just penciled in that show and race as well - I just picked up a running driving 87 D100 shortbed slant 904 truck. I'm sure it will be slow as molasses but what the heck!

Glad to hear it, Charlie and Don. This could be quite a turnout this year.

Rick, if you have contact info for Thomas Heflin (black Dart) and Maynard Gress (yellow Dart), we should try to get ahold of them. Maybe refer them to the SSRN link or get them a printed copy too?

I'm betting 15+ cars, and we'll hope for 17 (50 pt race)... :D :D

Cheers,

Lou

I already have a PM in to Maynard. I think Thomas told me he did not have internet access, but I think I still have his phone number. I will give him a call and let him know that the runner up from last year is required to return the following year.
