Kearney dates are now CONFIRMED with Mike and the track.

Aug. 21,22 (both are Slant 6 points race days)

Let's get a head count!! I feel like we'll have 10-15 cars if folks really show up.

Lodging info:

Here's the place a few of us stayed last year, right across the street from the Pizza Hut. Pool, nice rooms, low price ($50/nt).

Midtown Western Inn
1401 2nd Avenue
(14 blocks North of I-80 on right side)
Kearney, NE 68847
(308) 237-3153
800-333-1401

Here's where a bunch more of us stayed last year, just south of I80. Nicer facilities, and still pretty affordable.

224 2nd Avenue S
Kearney, Nebraska 68847-9380
Phone: 308/224-3485

See all you crazies in August!!

Lou

I raced with Glen this weekend and we are planning to go.Maybe a third and possibly another from the west. Since i was highly rewarded for my win last year i am putting up $300 in the pot, $150 to each race winner. And another $50 bounty for whoever takes me out first. Easy money for someone. Can we post the entry fee and any other details ,any one sponsoring ,trophies etc.?

I am definitely in, and could possibly bring 2 cars if the stars align.

Let's do it!

I am still planning to be there, probably for both days this year. Realistically not all on the list will show up, Ryan is only coming on Sunday. If you are counting on eight or more cars you may be disappointed.

The plan is to go. But, being self-employed might keep me from going. I have too much work to do. That is a good thing, but really cuts into my "weekends off".

I'm going to try my hardest to be there.

Wasn't there some local guys that were going to bring their rides next year (next year is here I guess). Maybe Mike J knows these people. I thought I heard this rumor last year. I'm bringing two cars but one will be a turbo 318. Later

I'll be there...

For those who don't remember me ;)

http://www.slantsix.org/forum/viewtopic ... c&start=15

I was at the first MATS back in 03 and raced there. I have not driven the Duster since that last pass when Mike J took me out. So have some cobwebs to blow out.

I now live about 45 minutes from Kearney. If anybody needs shop space during the event, I'll have shop, tools, welder, etc available if needed.

Great idea Mark,I love you but if i go faster you will hate me ,if i break it you will kill me,if i crash it i will kill myself. Better idea i will get a two car trailer pick you up on the way to Kearney and bring the car back to my place and to Samoa two weeks later,we can tent at the track,it wont be too horribly expensive.

Wow, this is great!

I may really be motivated to drive the '64 out from VA and bring 2 cars. Didn't know you had moved so close, GunPilot. We'll see what I can blow up on the track and then use your garage... I just drove my '64 up to MA from VA today and had a ball. Man, people drive slow... I think I barely had it over 100 twice.
