That's cute. Are you still infatuated with George? But to answer your question, no. I am my own person and don't feel the need to swing like Tarzan.

Please let us know when the track is back up to the stellar status it was when Denny was there. I would like to bring my car back and run a 11.90 @ 125 in the right lane

Why would I be infatuated with George? I don't need to go to every NMCA event and park so close to his door that you can't get out of the car

I parked next to John (CrawlinRS) as he is my friend, and it was at ONE NMCA race. I don't even talk to George that much; only at the track, but he just happened to pit next to us. Once again you prove to be an ignornat juvenile ****. I know you are just going through withdrawls not being able to suckle at Denny's sack. I understand. Anything else you would like to try and throw at me that you know nothing about but only speculate on?

Both times in the last two weeks that I was there, they made announcements that they would let cars run until midnight.

It's startin' to sound like school thing with did you see what he did/said or poor this or that one...WHO CARES. They are their problems and not ours...anyone remember that it's kind of fun trying to get 1,320 feet in a hurry?

I'm a track newbie with a mostly stock car and am just going to have some fun. Anyone else?

Who knows what to think about that track, I'll believe everything is settled when I can see a copy of the court filings.

I must agree I popped my 13, 12, 11 and 10 second cherries there !! Both of the cars I have went the fastest at U.S. 41 compared to anywhere else.

I've also been in the 8's there..... I call it my home track....

I am glad the correct owners are back in charge, as I was about ready to end my season....

Me too, I went 12's all the way to 9.4 there. I just really like Papa Norm and would like to see this all get resolved. I coordinated many private track rentals with him and was saddened by his passing.

I hope you guys don't want time slips. The last I heard the timing system was stolen.

But.....if you listened or checked the sites provided.......

The people who were running the track for the past month or so (illegally) took or vandalized much of the equipment that was at the track since they were being removed. The guy that orchestrated it was a big POS and very sleazy.

So....since the timing system, radio, equipment and other **** is gone, it needs to be replaced. We all know that stuff is VERY expensive so the insurance company is involved and we all know how that is.

I've been waiting to test my car now for awhile and I know how hard it is to be patient, but it takes time to get sorted out after something extreme of this nature
