Chris, Every time I've been up there it's drawn a good crowd. It's really cool to see the big rigs going down the track!

I am planning on going to this, Mike or John, with one of my boys. Will there be enough people to park as group or are you both going to compete?

I'll probably race not sure what John will do. We usually all park together at the track. I'll see if Brian B. will bring one of his tents to set up.

Great! I know you guys will be there earlier than me. I'm expecting to be there sometime between 11-12. It says racing starts at 2 till around 8. When I get there will I be given some options to get in the track or what?

Is the plan still to be there on Saturday? With the weather report calling for....wait for it....RAIN, I am leaning towards Sunday. Any thoughts?

In the future we may have to initially plan things for during the week. That way mother nature won't schedule the rain on the weekends

The weather ain't looking good for Saturday ,,,, but Sunday is looking real good. I'm only about 25 minutes from the track and I'll be there as long as it ain't raining.

Hey guys, I have been talking with Mike D. and it is looking like the rain is going to be bad on Saturday. So,.....at this time, we are planning on coming up there on Sunday. As Dennis said, the rain should be out of there by then.
I am planning on making a few "passes" with the 96' but not running all the rounds as my rear diff ring/pinion are about gone. 300,000 miles will do that!
