Damn,
That is a hell of a hike but hope you change your mind or hit the lotto...
LOL... thanks DJ.... never know me and my buddy
MIGHT make it.... for us its 2 tow vehicles and trailers
and my rig is a Dodge diesel dually with a 43' trailer
but the trailer has LQ so we stay in it before and
after the event... plus if we DID go it would be
2 days on the road so we would stay in it on the road

Tulsa is my home track so if you guys have any questions just let me know. It's also where Billy and his family are from so I'm sure he and all his brothers will be going again this year and have some great stories to share with us.
I'm thinking about going on it with my wife 1968 Barracuda and go with my dad in his 1966 Barracuda but I haven't made my mind up yet.

I never understood why they do this in the midwestern states when Hot Rod Magazine is based in california. I wish it started in california and then moved east or wherever. Also isn't it a requirement for drag week that you drive the car to each track, not tow it with a trailer?

You can trailer TO the event base track... once the
event starts, no more support veh... you can tow a
trailer of limited size... but basically your on your
own but can buy parts or what ever on the way.... BUT
must stay with the block you start with.... its a
real good time

Those look great! Like I said before...I sure am enjoying that build! 
They were a PITA to build... close with the inner
fenders in there.... I'll have to get some updated
pics... just been so busy to get any... those headers
will be coated black to contrast with all the shiney
stuff under the hood
