I am old and kinda set in my ways...... That said, I had a blast last year watching the heads up cars at Norwalk.... Gary Robbins and all the other guys. Fun, fun, fun to watch.
Seems like there are quite a few cars around these days.

Any ideas on who might show up this year? Surprises? Big Time, Digby?

Edit to add.......

I will throw an offer of 100 dollars cash to the low qualifier after qualifying sessions are complete, not much I know, but it's a hundred dollar bill........

Not looking good for me. I received a call today that my headers should be welded up and ready to send out to get coated tomorrow. Hopefully picking up the car on Sunday. I'm going to re-ring and new bearings but will probably wait to order my nitrous kit since it is so late in the year. Property tax bill arrived yesterday too and ohhhhh boy. Looks like the black Duster will be playing in the box class. Lol

I'm going to try to make it but my engine isn't done yet.
I still have a lot do on the car itself .
But if I get the engine back in I will show up like last year untested .

I'm on the fence as the limited class I run in Texas has changed a August race to the same weekend as MMW !!

I wouldn't think Digby will make since duck's race is a couple week's after MMW.
Bigtime might but I have no idea.
Did Monty Smith ever get his car up and running again ?

Hey I might actually make this race...is there a bump for Big Dog or is it all run 5.70 and faster?? Ok I found this but I still don't get it....all run...but you can't dial more than .200 slower than the fastest car. So if I run 5.50's and the bump is 5.70 but the slowest car other than me runs 5.20 I have to dial 5.40????? Is that how I read it?
