Thumbs up Super Chevy - Gainesville - October 20th-22nd!

I'll be there with our usual gang of racers/drinkers/party people Just look for the green Nova and you'll find us!

Anyone else heading out? This will be the last one for Gainesville it seems, as the 2007 Super Chevy schedule has Gainesville missing in action. The only dates for Florida next year are Bradenton in February and Moroso in September.

Racing and show as always, been that way every year.

Friday is TNT for weekend racers from 12 to 5 for an additional $25. I've made 8 runs in one year, as turnout Friday can be light with racers just dropping trailers and teching in.

I may head out there to watch some races and test out the new camera, but it depends on how busy I'll be that weekend.

So, it seems like not many people are going....
I want to go to either this or the silver springs show, but seeing as how I want to better my first and only time at the track of a 14.0 ill probably go to gainesville.
Ive got to take off work so I can't really do both, plus $32 for silver springs sucks..

I just wanna say YOU ALL SUCK. We'd so be there, but we can't get out of town 2 weeks in a row. Hope to see you all at the NPD Show at Silver Springs this weekend!

I am planning on going. HorsePower Motorsports crew bringing some suprises too. I would really love to get together with other folks on the cook out/ hang out thing. Derek, do you guys have anything planned?

It's only $32 if you aren't bringing a car and walking in. Go with a buddy with a car entered and it drops to $17, or enter a car at the same price.

Super Chevy isn't cheap either at $20-25 a day, but also well worth it. I'll be out having a good time as always.

Not really a huge planner here. We race until we lose (hopefully late ) then lots of chicken wings, beer, more food, more beer, then crawl home and repeat the next day! Sounds like fun eh?

We'll likely stake out a corner, so come by and say hello. You can look for the blue and red Novas, as well as a few early 64-65 Novas, a first and second gen Camaro, and likely a few other cars. I'll likely have the National Parts Depot tent out there somewhere...
