Tom, It was lots of fun having yall' down . Get that baby to the track and get everthing ready for the big one in November. I'll bring the fried okra, you bring the 100% agave and the lemons .
I'll admit, I didn't have the cajones to attempt shots w/ Tom at 2 in the afternoon, perhaps we can try the next ones a bit later in the evening? That stuff smelled a bit vicious for me, I'll bring the goldschlagger for the after party

Tom, just read the thread. Glad to see you back in the saddle buddy. Now come on over here to Cecil in the fall for some -2000DA days and lets have some fun! Hope the weather holds for some testing. Been raining here in the east every weekend.

Good luck with the car and stay safe!

Mikey

Tony it's already up. I am just waiting on the developer to get me a Banner ad together. Maybe I'll just call him back and ask him to get me some thing super simple together. I am a paying sponsor on 4 different sites and don't have a banner on any of them . www.mmtracing.com It's very simple and strait to the point, just like I like it .

Yep, one in the same Brian. I gave you a call and left a message. Your IT.

PRP has a bunch of rice cars on thursday. It would be better to come down tuesday for tnt and a gamblers race. I hear you get 8 to 10 runs on tuesday.

PRP is located on 22 east about 10 miles east of the 66 and 22 interchange.

VipZ28, Blane you don't know what you were missing. That is some good Agave man. Casa Noble.

Thanks Mikey, you bet I'll come out and race. It sure will be fun. Thanks again Mikey.

About time? You said man. It was a long wait Fenris Ulf. thanks aman.

Tom

Hey Sean, see all those banners to the right? I created most of them - at no charge! I'll have you a banner up by this weekend, and start you off in 3rd quarter (July 1st). Thanks

www.weather.com isn't calling for rain but the 'DA is probably going to be around 3700' with 93 degree temps. Can you say correction factor???

I'm 100% NHRA and IHRA legal. I hooked up my neutral saftey switch and it works. My cut off switch now cuts the engine off like right now. I have a SFI damper, flex plate, certified 12 point cage, 5 point harness, etc etc etc. 100%.

Tomorrow I need to install some wire loom, wash and wax the car, buff the lug nuts and washers and go to the track and run some 10.90's give or take a second or so I have a warm fuzzy feeling inside

I hope the weather holds. There is some ugly storms headed our way.
