Car is still in the trailer full of anti-freeze.. ..By the end of the month hopefully I will have my motorhome..truck and trailer ready. Blow the dust of the Arrow and hit a gamblers race before heading up to Dunn Tire for a 2k race. Then points at PRP with a few IHRA races and big $ deals sprinkled in.

The Porsche dealer I work at is envolved in some road coarse stuff so I will probably be doing some of that also..


5.53 @ 125 1/8th on the launch control..more left in her!

Saw on Kanawha Valley's web-site (Winfield, W. Va.) they are going to have a Test/Tune and swap meet March 26. Sounds good, but a little too early for me...car is still in the trailer,,maybe in a couple weeks I'll be ready.


Hey Chapper, keep me informed about Kanawa valley,I have family in Athens and try to make it down on occation,was last down there a couple of years ago and the track was terrible and I have been hearing that they were not going to open this year after the sale fell thru, would like to come back this summer,,I always liked that track and a friend of mine, Jeff Johnson and his dad with the "Fast Forward" dakota run's there.


Light travels faster than the speed of sound,,,this is why some people seem bright untill you hear them speak.

I drove my 79 "300" 150 miles one way to sikeston last night and ended up in two finals. Foot brake I was .497 red and dead on 7.420 on 7.42 dial. Then 10 minute later in Pro I dialed 7.41 and went 7.405 on 7.41 dial. It was a 6.03 dial in Rustang in the other lane and I took .035 stripe cause I did'nt judge him right. I thought I was going to double up and got two runner ups. Still had alot of fun though. The 150 mile drive home in that loud a$$ car in the rain was'nt so much fun. Cheap day to race as the "300" got near 14mpg there and back. Car used 21 gallons of gas to go 300 miles on the highway and 7.5 gallons to make 19 1/8th mile passes.
