I'll be there, but I'll be bringing a cool slant car. :lol:

Maybe you'll outgrow that rash V8 racing foolishness when you grow up Sergio! :mrgreen:

I'm holding my breath hoping you never do! Have fun! :D

Hi CJ I hope to be allowed to pit with the allmighty sl 6 bunch,I have been working on this one for three years. I will do a sl6 justice later on when grow up. I just had my 64 th birthday and my car ran 134 mph in the quarter i told my wife by my 70th i better be going 150 or i may have to quit. She said quit now now and race sl6 only.Smart woman.But on a serious note there are a few undecided that i am trying to get there.

Well, the property values will only be effected for a few days! You can bring your silly 150 mph V8 car over if you really want to! :wink:

Sounds fun! I look forward to seeing it. Do you think you can get Edd to bring his Demon?

Allen and I are registered and ready to go. :wink: :roll:

Guzzi Mark has his car "dialed-in"... he needs to stop Fu..iddling with it for a few weeks. :wink: :lol:

Ceej, Wicked Six, Andrew (the Kidd) all should make it.
I need to talk with Rick Valent and "the other Rick"... they are usually there. Romio F. usually has his car in the mix...
And then there are the "others" that just show-up for the $50.00 per round win money.
Last year we had SL6 12 cars in the bracket.

See this message thread in the Events section for more up-dates... as we get closer.

Hey Doug and Everyone-
I might be the other Rick- green 69 slant Dart.
I would love to be there. Don't know though-
won't be bringing the car. Have had some extremely
serious financial setbacks!
Good luck to everyone else!

Well I'm trying to get there.Lost my job a couple of weeks ago (didn't really like it anyways) but as last year I'm waiting on the motor shop.They have had my motor for 2 1/2 months and said it would be completed in plenty of time.Well now they said they ran into a problem with the lifters last friday.I start a new job tomorrow and probly won't see my motor back until the end of this week so it ain't looking good.If by some fluke I get there it proably won't be pretty,no test and tune and a whole bunch of changes .On the up side I know they'll be plenty of help to sort it out.I'm trying as best as I can but super bummed out. :oops:

Hang in there! A lot of us have been in the same spot you're in. Don't stress about getting the car there this year. Just plan to attend as a spectator again. You have to admit that was almost as much fun as actually racing (if not more so).

Every race I was able to make it to back in 2002-2004 and one in 2006 was a mad thrash to work things out at the track. I made it, but I would have had much more time to get to know people if I hadn't pushed so hard.

Enjoy the people,... the racing will come eventually.
