So we're in Vegas for the Division 7 ET Finals and what does the guy do? He drives his diesel push RV out to the track so that my party can stay in it.. Also he cleaned it inside and out as well as topped off the fuel so that we can run the generator without any interuptions..

Here we are sitting in the pits at the racetrack in total comfort..

Thanks Al... You've taken hospitality to another level...

That was SUPER of him to do that

Nice

Thats awesome! I have had the pleasure of speaking with him on the phone and doing business with him. No doubt he is a class act

Al is one of the good ones, but so are you Don. I wouldn't hesitate to let you use or borrow my stuff either (if i had anything worth borrowing )

Good Luck this weekend!

THAT'S generosity, and a class act.

So, what did it run in the quarter?

Al, to me, has always been a personable guy..he cares..

what a guy..

Oh man.. it only gets better!!! On the first run.. the one that J posted.. The motor in my car let loose and its done for the year.. Since this is an ET Finals and since we want to support the team.. We agreed to race the tow vehicle just for that 1st round point..


But no.. thats not good enough for Al.. He wants to pull the electronics in his Cuda and let me race his 8 second 160+ mph car..

LOL.. I know I'm being a fool for not accepting his offer, but I had to put my foot down and tell him no...

His kindness this whole weekend was total class and there is no way I could repay him..

Run the motor home!!...Do it...DO it...

LOL.. I asked Al if I could run the RV.. He just laughed, so i took that as a no... lol

I did cut a .08x light leaving off the 2nd yellow in the tow vehicle..

Gee Don.. That was awfully nice of Kathy.. er... Al..

Have a great time.

Since Al is offering Barracudas, I'm sure glad mine is home now.

Pretty sure he is Color Blind.. Who knows which Barracuda he would bring you.

BTW. Which Duster did you take there?


Chris..

Chris.. he offered the orange Cuda since the black one is no longer there... but then Al said I wouldnt like the black one because its too slow



I brought the 70 with us.. On Monday night we pulled the trans and opened up the bottom end lookinbg for an odd noise.. come to find out the noise was in the top end...

Shoulda brought the 73

Chris.. We ended up breaking and cracking both rocket shafts, lost 4 rockers, 1 push rod, 1 lifter and 1 camshaft..

And repeatedly, Al kept saying, I got those spare parts at home, we can get you back up n running..

Dang man.. Al is too much

This kind of stuff is what I like about drag racers, there are some great people in this sport.
