Question Chicagoland-anyone free Sun. to help Pro-Mod, T/S type car

.

Looking for one person to head down to US 41. Need help removing body, packing chutes, towing car, ect ect.
Prefer someone with track experience, but reliable car guy is all that I ask. I just need a hand, nothing too complicated.
Too late in the season to not be prepared. Leaving from the RT 66 area, heading south to Kankakee, east to track.
Can pick up on the way, but remember, will have truck & trailer, no dead ends. Can meet at shop or track if you prefer.

Just really really want to make a full pass this year. Will bring sandwich's & drinks, pay for ticket. Thanks guys.

Damn man, I would love to do it, and would be all about it.. Unfortunately I have to work. You ever need a hand with anything on a Friday or Saturday, let me know.

Good luck w/ the passes.

I sure hope it's not the new clutch you were telling me about. Hooking too good??
According to the new crew chief, track was working good.
I believe we had a 1.17 & 1.18 60' on my crappy aborted runs.

Going to try again. Probably a little chilly, but good enough for some 1/8th mile attempts.

Free ride, sandwich's, pop. Some work required, thanks.
