The 10th annual Slant Six race at Wilkesboro Raceway Park is now less than two weeks away. This has always been one of our classic races since the beginning. The turnout has always been fantastic and the racing too.
Lets support Tim Harrold for putting out the big purse year after year. Bring any slant six you have to the Dealership for display to the public on Sat. July 17 at 10:00 am until sometime after lunch and we will head to the track later in the afternoon. Gates open at 4:00 with practice around 5:30 pm.
Lets do a roll call. Let us know you are comming. WRP's web site is http://www.wilkesbororacewaypark.com/.

I am coming for sure, and should have 2 cars (Project V and Slantkota). Maybe I can talk James Longhurst into coming and running my truck...

Unfortunately I have a wedding to attend that weekend, and my car is not anywhere near ready...

Sorry to disappoint you Ron. Hopefully next year.

Wilkesboro and Clay City are the two races I have been looking forward to attending for years. I wasn't able to escape from Afghanistan in time for Wilkesboro this year, but next year for sure!

Rats.
This one snuck up on me and I'm not going to be able to make it this year.
I shall return, though!

Greg, it is a 1-day meet, and eliminations have run late into the night when we had a large turnout.

We are going to miss you guys that can't come. We are hoping for some unannounced people to show up. Keeping our fingers crossed. Greg hope TNT goes well. It will be great to see the ruster go down the track.

Please tell me I have LESS than a 33% chance of getting it right if I guess!

I really hope a lot of "non board members" showed up.

Hopefully the Drakes, Fosters, Parkers, and other typical supporters of this historic race were there.

"Keep the home fires burnin' please!" I'll be there next year.
