Cool Mr.Belvedere I look forward to seeing you! We are sitting somewhere over there also, around the starting line. Maybe we can get a time and place to meet? I would like to have all us MOPARTS people meet between rounds?

Im not really familiar with in-floor heating. Does that provide heating for the building, or is it for when your working in your slippers. Just curious how it works. Looks good

Guys, don't be so upset about no There will have plenty to purchase, at probably $6.00 per, but the Ice Cream is worth the $1.00, so if you get a beer and some Ice Cream you can look at it as $3.50 a piece.. I will be there first thing Friday morning, I caught on with TAFC team from Canada, so will be helping them all weekend. Should be a fun eventful weekend, hope all MOPARTS members have fun and if I can get away will try to meet up with everyone. Cory

well today the racing started out bad by the track not holding on the starting line. it seams the sealer thay put on the staging lanes got on the track from the water box to the 60' and thay had to scrape and coat it. the 1st 10 cars spun and thay kept trying to spray the track only but to no avail.those 10 got to rerun after scraping,spraying and all was well from there4 on.i have some pics.

Dang, seemed like just about everybody in the fuel classes either blew up or had to peddle it to get down the track.
Seemed like the track surface was an issue.

How about each day, we meet near the ice cream @ 1pm & 6pm ?
Okay, 1st off it was an AWESOME weekend weatherwise, I thought. I didn't bring my camera, so I got no pics..We had a blast, as we set up our pop up canopies out in the general parking. We had a group of 12 this year. After we got "our area" set up, we made into the stands{on Saturday}. We were near the top of the Force section in row "f". I figured that 1pm was coming around, so I asked my wife if she wanted to come along to meet up with some Moparts members. That leads to the 2nd..
We got to the ice cream stand at around 12:45.. I didn't see anyone with a Mopar shirt or anyone looking like they were waiting to meet anyone.. . I Rick around 1:10. He was in the Funny car pit area and I couldn't hear and/or remember the cell # he gave me, as that is when the Top Fuel cars were making their passes. We stuck around til about 1:25 and decided to to walk around some and try to Rick. My wife was okay with the length of time because she was able to use a clean bathroom with running water.. . No luck so we walked around the pits. I got Larry Dixon's signature and chatted with him briefly. My wife liked that. He was a real cool guy.
I ended the day there a little bummed cause I didn't see any of ya.
Sunday there was a guy in the Force section near us {in the f row again} that was wearing a Hemi Dart t-shirt. Not sure if that was a member here or not. Didn't talk to him.
All in all the weekend was great. We got back home around 3pm today.. I hope we can try and meet up again sometime..
Rick, I called ya again yesterday to see where ya were. I left my cell and thought you'd call back.. I wanted to possibly hook up with later..
MetalStorm, we were at the Super 8 in Elyria. How close were we? You too Rick and anyone else in the area. Just curious. Also, do you know anything about that black Dakota? We saw him win his one and only pass on Sunday and thought for sure he'd back out. Not sure what had happened to him. I was real interested in it because we run the same et's.

Well, well, well..I wasn't positive where we were staying this year. I wasn't the one who made the reserv. Otherwise I woulda let you know. Got a pic of you?? We filled our water bottles at that particular fountain. The short people one. We did that before we left the area..

Facing the fountain were you to right? I kinda think I remember seeing someone sitting there. My wife and I were right out in the open in front of the ice cream stands' window around at people. She's blonde and taller than me and I was wearing a white tshirt with YellowBullet.com on the back and tan cargo style shorts with a brown NHRA hat..

Rick, after we talked Saturday, Patty and I walked through the pits. We were standing at Cory Macs pit when they came back after their run. We were waiting for him to become available. When did you get that pic ^^^ taken?? Probably just missed you too.
