Quick questions, is the mopars at the rock still a go? Has the track & area around aberdeen been effected by the hurricane? Thx in advance Dave ss/ea #1355

Rockingham is a long way from the hurricane damage.

Talking about hurricane helene which swept thru this part of South Carolina casuing alot of damage. some areas still haven't recovered. I'm assuming the event is still on. Thx Dave ss/ea #1355

I'm referring to Helene also. All the Helene damage was way west of Rockingham, NC.

Good to hear, planning on making it to the event. Thx again Dave ss/ea #1355

Dave, I just checked the NOAA website, and it says sunny with a high of 69 on Saturday at Rockingham. If you're racing, you should pull some good timeslips out of that nice weather! I used to bring my 71 Challenger convertible to race at the show. It was ALWAYS 3 tenths faster at Rockingham than Bristol or Atlanta.
All of the problems associated with Helene were in Western North Carolina and Upstate South Carolina, which are 4 hours to the west of the track. I live in Candler, NC, very close to where the eye of the storm went thru. Our city water still isn't safe to drink because our reservoir got severely damaged. No damage at my house though, other than a tree fell and busted the split rail fence by the far end of my driveway. We were very fortunate compared to others in our area.

thx for the noaa update. i've never been to rockingham. so that's why I"'ve been asking all these questions, yeah, when helene hit we got hit here in central SC, but not as bad as Greenville or Ashville NC or Atlanta. Sorry to hear about the damage to ur place. If you , make it to rockingham be sure to stop by and say hello, that goes out to all moparts members, Thx to everybody who contributed hope to see some there, Dave ss/ea #1355

Dave, is your car a 67 RO car? I'll try to walk the pits and look you up.

Dave....I looked for you today, but couldn't find you. You may have been in the staging lanes when I looked. Great turnout at the show today!!

Sorry we missed each other, yeah it was crowded, by the time I got there I parked & unloaded just to the left of the main gate as u drove out. Only got 1 hit at the track, test & tune, cut an .003 lite then blew the tires off. i wasn't the only 1 though most cars were spinning like mad. They finally dragged the track but the tractor kept dragging thru the water box bringing water onto the track, then they never resprayed. Sunday I took 1/2 a turn looser on the front shocks, & 1/2 # of air from the tires not many cars had gone down the track so when i came up she went into a giant wheelstand but headed for the right wall so i got out of it. Next shot she again blew the tires off, so don't know if my tires have gone away or something else, but i know track was not optimal like a division meet. we'll figure it out. thx 4 looking would've been nice to meet. Dave ss/ea #1355

I looked for you, but didn't see you...hate we didn't get a chance to meet.
Might want to check your tires...most of the guys I talked to said the track was pretty good on Saturday.

We'll try again at the Spring 2025 show since they're doing it twice a year now. If you get a chance, post a pic of your car in this thread so I'll know what to look for.

Big white Belvedere ll named "Native American" when is the spring event happening? PM ur cell# & I'll send some pix I don't know how to post them here thx Dave ss/ea #1355

The Spring Mopars at the Rock event is on the dragway's schedule for April 5, 2025.
