Answering the call of the wild
On May 31st I will be running the full road course with my AAR Cuda at Watkins Glen International Racetrack with the Phoenix CMR Driving School. Due to tire testing by Nascar this year's event will be one day instead of 2. The nascar boys will be showing up as we play so who knows who or what we will see...

I have a few openings on my guest list for spectators so this is an invitation for moparts members to come enjoy a day of horsepower and speed esp you guys who get their pleasure only 7-12 seconds at a time.....

9secPhil you get first dibs on an invite.

For any newbies that don't know...my car is not stock-it's a real AAR as it would be no fun with a clone. I drive it to the track-no trailer-I live 90 miles away-and it goes 130mph on the back straightaway with ease. As always I made a few changes to the car so it's smoother,faster, meaner.

PM's only if you have the need for speed.

I don't see a rollcage in the car. Is it not required? Car looks good, but I think you can still have fun in a clone.

Feel free to call me any time if you run into any problems while your in the area. shop 607-594-4002 cell 607-227-2166. I would have loved to go but work comes first....Maybe Vic (slippery440) or Jim (bigcube) can come up to watch...Have fun and be safe. Again, your more then welcome to stay here....Phill

It's really a lot of fun. And entertaining to watch because of the huge variety of cars. We had a track 57 Chevy, Ferrari F40, 74 Duster, and some wing cars.... The spectators I see come out seem pleasantly surprised.
