AUGIE DOG:

Yes, they do have a pretty good sized "swap and sell" meet at MATR. I know they camp at MATR but am not sure about the hookups there.

I will get you a DTR Form.

John, Hope to see you guys there. I am heading over fri night to run some 1/4 mile stuff. Hope to get some 9.60's out the car. Can't wait to see the red rocket in action.

you can stay overnight, but I don't think they have anything available as far as hook ups, but I could be wrong. We will race fri night, party, sleep in the enclosed trailer, and race all day Sat.
see everyone there.

Ron

I am hoping,,,,,,, NO,,,,,,, make that I am not going to miss this year like I did the last Rock meet! I'll either take a vacation that week or I'll just work an overtime or two and burn a couple of days with one of those "I've got an eye disease and I just can't see coming into work!" excuses. I'm scheduled to be working the 4-12 shift all week end that week.
If they would let me park the 5th wheel at the track, I would try to come down Friday and leave Sunday morning. I'll have to check for campgrounds around there, plus the track has a number to call to ask. I'll figure something out, but I'm pretty sure I'll be there one way or another.

See y'all then,,,,,

It would be great to see you make it down this year buddy! See if you can drag Ed along with you, as I know he would enjoy it too! There should be some good drag racing there. I asked Tim about a "NC/VA DTR Shootout" between all the our trucks just for fun and he was not too enthused about "heads-up" racing, but mentioned maybe trying a "bracket" event between us all. Personally, I like the "heads-up" format myself. I think it would be fun to do that, but we'll see how it goes. I do intend to hopefully have a "rematch" with Charles (mmmmtorque) in his modified 05' Dodge SRT-10 Viper Pickup.

Hope to see you guys there Dennis!

Yeah right John,,,,,,,,, you're a really funny guy,,,,,,,
The only way I will race ya "heads-up",,,,, is if you let me hold your truck keys and throw them out the window when I leave on the green! However, I still think you could run me down before I hit the traps....

Thanks for the heads up on the campground Mcmopar, I'll check into it.

Sorry, I should have been more clear in my post! What I meant was the faster trucks like Tim's, Cris', Bobby Downes, Johnner, Jess' etc. competing "heads-up!"

Cris needs to get that top turbo fixed back up to lower his 80lb drive pressures. Or has he?

Yep, and reasonable. $10 bucks or so. Inside the track you can camp too but it is $100-$150 or something. I like the other one better. It is across the main highway from the speedway (not the dragway). Pine.....something I think.

Unfortunately I'm not going to be able to make it......opening day of turkey season. Y'all have fun, wish it was a different weekend. It was a blast last year.
