Hope someone has a good place for my laptop on Thursday (at Vegas), lol I'm a College Basketball Junkie as I've been watching 3 to 4 games at a time since Weds. 2 TV's, laptop & regular computer in my room, lol. Anyhow its March Madness and I want to keep an eye on my games. I finished in the top 5,000 last year in the country on my picks, need to trim that down under 2,000. See everybody either Weds (i fly in on Weds) or Thursday.

Don Bales is coming out Joe... He has a flat screen that swings out of the cargo area and is a big fan of College Hoops...(He is from Indiana after-all) I am sure we will be able to keep track of all the action on and off the drag strip....So the elephant cage will have a place to watch all the hoops as well...I will be coming in with the cruise from Salt Lake....See you on Thursday or Fri. morning....Paul.....

After talking to Lil Joe at the CC events Shootout in Norwalk last year, (nicest guy & crew in the world) There was talk that he may run the (4) CC Events this year with the "bracket" car. This was just word I heard from a few in the pits. As you all know, Norwalk is the only "Shootout" of the CC events. The rest of the events are bracket race style that bring out a few legal super cars and some cool bracket cars.
In working with The Blankenship Family, that runs the Chrysler Classic Events Series, we have looked at doing a 4 race Super Stock AH AA legal series if Sponsorship could be found to support such a venture. With the ecomomy in the tank, the interest level in sponsorship support has been minimal.
I am still looking at a few different options, and trying to drum up sponsorship for that to happen. The hope is that we can do something in the future to give this class a great place to race and keep the fan-base as well as the racers happy....The CC Events series is the only ALL-Mopar racing/show series out there and the "bracket" racing is awesome...To able to host the A/A A/H Super Stock Class would be a great addition for the Series....As it stands Norwalk is the only "Hemi Shoot-out " on the CC Events Schedule.....

I did not think that the other 3 events would hold a SS/AH shootout. I just heard rumors of Lil Joe maybe bracket racing all 4 of them.
I know with the economy being crappy, car counts are going to be down. Do you all think if I epoxy some old plug wires to my valve covers Charlie will let me pass as a Hemi Car? Probally going to need all the cars he can get. Just a idea???
The thought was with the Hemi Shoot-out money from Mopar seeming to go away, that the CC Events Shows could be a place for the Super Stock A/A A/H to be a show case event in it's own right... A draw if you will... We also hoped to have a decent purse for each race, but as of right now, the economy has kept the Sponsorship opportunitys down as well.....There are just so many new cars being built and the class is as strong as ever... I think that a Series of Hemi Shoot-outs out side of the NHRA can only help the class.... I also have seen that the rumour is Mopar is back in the game with Sponsorship for Indy and a few other races... I hope that is true and they can support these guys.....

I'm sitting at the columbus airport waiting on my flight. Don, Thanks, you know I'll be around for sure. The CC deal, i hope it works cause i know for sure there will no more big money NHRA hemi shootouts. Indy might get some $$ but that would be it. If you guys want, I'll talk to some of you at Vegas and make sure we might have a plan B for indy and do it the old way and have our own money in it for a pay day, and bring in sponsor money on our own without having jump through hoops to say. See some of you in Vegas, and non hemi SS/AH guys but posters on here, stop me and say hi if your out there

I dont know what everyone went, but I do know this.
I drove heberts car today, first run shut off and went 9.07
2nd run went 81 151
3rd run went 78 151
rains went 77 150
houser went 85 I think
viera went 86 I think
tony mandella was driving one of ogburns cars, never made it down when I watched,
Ogburn went 90 something I think.
raybourne never hooked up when I watched either.
Heberts new car worked really well, we didnt test our cars cause I am too cheap to pay 300.00 a car for 5 hrs.
I probably wont have time to post tomorrow, we run at 11, 1, 3.
