damn... would have been nice to see you make some runs

I'm shocked that there is basically no interest to drag race with this weather.

I totally be there too if my car wasn't asleep for the winter. I could bring my hooptie but it's on it's last leg and I don't think it would even make it to Byron. I guess it's time to buy a new DD. Come on guys Larry needs Byron to open so he can put a 9 second slip on the fridge. Good Luck rounding some cars up Larry.

Larry, my ECU from Ion did not arrive today, so, no go. I might just try to make a run at GLD next Sunday or the next if weather permits, and if they're still open. Wanna, go?

Byron is a no go, so my plan is to hit GLD. The track is to be open, but they do suggest calling in the a.m.

Butch..drive up and make some motor runs
