Anyone interested in going to Mason Dixon to race on June 28th? They have their Rockin Chair Nationals that weekend. It is kind of a oldies/Nostalgia event and is usually well attended. I think I am going. Let me know!

I believe I can make it there. Watching, not racing, BUT...the Belvedere is almost on 4 wheels again. Progress.

Thanks for asking, Rick. Hope you have a great time. We'll be getting back on the 28th from a family trip, so nope for me. I had ball with y'all in May!

See ya at Carlisle!

I am still planning to go Saturday. I am going to run the car exactly like I did last month except for changing the valve setting back to .024 or .026 instead of the .032 I ran last time. I ran about .15 slower than I normally do, so I want to test it. I'll leave the 4.56 gears in the car. Of course the weather is always different too, so we shall see. :D :D

Looks like 80-85 degrees outside for Saturday, which is not far off from when I ran it last time. :D :D

It is 93 Here today, and was 100 in Columbus, Ohio on Monday afternoon.


Have a good run!

Sorry I cannot come down, Ruster is still out of commission until I can dedicate some time to work on it.

Yeah it was About 93 here too. I kind of draw a line at 90 degrees. If it is over that and it is just me going to have fun, 90 is about my limit. If it is a Slant 6 race that is a different story.

I got to thinking about the last time I was down there racing. I bet I had some money at the tower because I got down to 3 cars. I didn't even think about it. It may be too late! :D :D

I won't be going this time Rick. - Sorry, it sounds like it will be a fun Saturday with some cool cars... I just thought about you getting 3rd the other day! I had assumed you got something for that but I didn't ever ask. I wonder how long they would keep it for you if you didn't come pick it up? Haha!

It was a decent day. There was a good turnout with a lot of cool old cars. I got to meet our friend on here that has the little T bucket. He went a couple rounds in his class I think. My car ran fine! 8.20 in the 1/8, which is about normal for 90 degrees and 70% humidity. I won my first rd. and while in the Tahoe cooling down I somehow missed the call for my class! :? Not even sure how I did it. But I just chalked it up for finding another way to lose. :D :D I loaded up and was just heading out and it down poured. So they probably didn't get to finish anyway. I got home and ate a bowl of ice cream and life was all good again! :mrgreen:

That's so Rick!

Well at least you got to meet another slanter and get some ice cream. Now all you need is a nickel swap meet and a peach milkshake and you will be set!

Swap meet will be next Friday! And the peach milkshake will happen tonight! :D :D Yes, I think the man with the T bucket was named Gene?
