Talking Countdown to ATLANTA!

So, how many of you are staying up late this week to tighten up those last few bolts on your hotrod?

How many of you are still begging your boss to let you off work this weekend?

How many of you are READY and set on KILL!

How many of you think you have what it takes to win a class, and don't want to post about your combo until your victims show up and accept defeat.(that's okay, you don't have to post)

Any predictions on who will get stomped or who will dominate?

Get ready folks, the magazine and TV media will be looking for a good show. Polish those rides up, and get them running perfect!

See you this FRIDAY morning, bright and early! Atlanta Dragway, here we come.
