Man, that would be crazy. We'll see what HSW and RPM can do in person, rather than over the phone and E-mail.

When you make the trip to RPM let me know, I am pretty local to them and I would love to meet a Alaskan F body guy.

I had so much fun and learned alot. I already told Megan we were going to meet you at the shootout. I have no problem sleeping in a rental car if I have to just to be there. Lol. I'm budgeting it in right now. So Next year I'll have everything covered.

I would love to but money would be a big issue. I cant even imagine what it would cost to trailer a car from NC to Alaska.

Whats the racing season like up there, how many months a year can you run?

It's only like 5000 miles LOL The trip is a mother phucker too. We race from Memorial Day to Labor Day as long as the weather cooperates. Basically every other weekend. It really is a nice track though.

We have the advantage of running with Funny Cars and nitro cars. That means the track is always spot on.

Man. I didn't think you'd bring your car. Well I guess if I had a motorhome I would probably bring my car too. Make sense.

Hey my car is still a punk *** pretty much stock street car so I could probably drive it that far. I'm hoping by next year this time I'll have a 10 second slip to show for my car and hopefully it will be a little less street friendly.
