They are not open this weekend. We are going to Bowling Green Kentucky to test on Saturday, you can follow us over if you want. We are leaving Jackson around 7:15 or so Saturday morning.

Come to BG, Bret. There is supposed to be a big bracket race this weekend I think. Check Beechbend's website to make sure. I was going to go to Jackson TN but a few f-body guys from around here are going to BG so I thought I would go to do some testing.

Hey Mike, who else is going with you over there? Does it take about 4 hours to get there? How much is it to test and tune?

It is roughly 3 1/2 hours, maybe 4 if you stop. I think Nathan is going over (Cape T/A), but he has not responded to my email. Dustin might ride over with me, but I am trying to get him to drive his rig over and we are going to meet a bunch of guys from Paducah at 9AM in Paducah. You can call me if you want, 450-8941.
