I took Project V around the block and laid 2 black marks on my driveway yesterday. It appears to be ship shape and ready to race, with new 3.80 rear pig and new Josh Skinner tranny. Hope to get a pair of drag slicks on it and get out to Radford for a t'n't before Hagerstown...

3.25. This one is a Truetrac too, so hopefully ltd slip will work better. Marks on driveway are symmetric, but we'll see on sticky pavement.

Looks like I can make the drive up, but most likely will be in a daily driver. My slant truck is down (exhaust and ignition). I'll be picking up Audrey - Stephaniebrite77's 65 Dart - down in NC this coming Sunday and anticipate driving it home with a buddy following in our truck. Just got to make sure there's no backing up since there's no reverse. So most likely I'll have to pull the 65 transmission. I do have a nice working 66 slant transmission, but that will entail additional work since it's rod actuated instead of cable. Got 3 weeks after I get back so we'll see.

That's good news Don. Will you be coming just on Sunday? don't worry there will be plenty of daily drivers.

I just checked the Mason Dixon Schedule for the weekend of our race, and they do not appear to be open on Friday evening at all. I will get in contact with Elmer to verify the details, but it looks like there will not be any test & tune at M-D that night. It is possible that there may be something at 75-80 Dragstrip, below Fredrick Md. About 45 Minutes from Mason Dixon.

I will post more details in the next couple days.

Don't worry about rain. There will not be any. The only reason it rained, last year, was because I drove over 2,000 miles round trip for the race. Can't make it this year. I did get in the Fri nite TnT, however. Most expensive TnT, I ever attended. Did have a good time meeting other Slanters, and bench racining. Plus a visit with my brother, who lives in Montgomery county Maryland, and hadn't seen for about 5 years. Have fun, folks.

It's been a loooong year and I haven't been on this board much lately, but I'll be there with the Valiant. Saturday most likely, but I may be able to make both days this year.
