I may be there both nights but friday for sure. Hope O'l Eore will run good, she's been out of daily use for almost 2 years and has not run at all sinse Deleon last year becose of a leeking IP. But I just put all new seals in it and a 3200GSK. Should be fun. I just made a new hitch tonight only has about 30 min but I think it turned out OK.

I pulled twice ( 261ft and 266ft) last night and will pull 2 more times tonight. Beat lots of 2nd and 3rd gens. There was only 1 other 1st gen there with twins and a P-pump I beat his 1st pull but he got me by 8ft on his second pull. So I think that I did realy good for a VE pump truck. I hope there are more 1st gens there tonight.

I got an email to day from a friend... That sled was involved in a pulling accident.. and was parked... 10-15 years ago.. This was its first time back out... I'm sure they'll have the bugs out of it next time... but I didn't hear where the sled is housed now??

Buck how did you do?? and who stayed to pull in the Modified Class... (and what time did they finish??)

I didn't hear about the sled breaking.. Just when they were having to crawl under it to find a gear... and then moving forward.. and then finding reverse... Just not a good event to be working out the kinks...
