Cool. Im going tot he bank here in a sec to deposit X-mas $$ and then off to see if the car is ready... should be around noon...... we had a LIL rubbing issue
Then i should be at Jenro's around 4 and then heading to Bass Pro around 530 to be there around 6pm....

Jenro's in up Independance off 264.
It will be on your left hand side in the same area as a Dairy Queen about 5 mi up Ind. right before it narrow's down to 2 lanes.

have you seen me?

closest tracks are in Richmond (Richmond Dragway), or Dinwiddie (Virginia Motorsports Park). With Dinwiddie having the better track of the two (my opinion).

Car shows die down in the winter
