It looks like the boss lady and myself will be coming.
Dave

 

Dave, are you and Courtney coming up for Fri. or just Sat.? If you need a place to crash just let me know, I have a spare bedroom.

 

Anyone know of a hotel that still has any kind of vacancy for Saturday night?

 

Are you looking for one in Vernon or in Wichita Falls? There should be plenty in the Wichita Falls area, I could get you a phone number to one that is close to the track if you would like.

If you are wanting one in Vernon, good luck. It's a small town and most of the hotels get booked up to a year in advance for this weekend.

 

Yeah that would be great! I was thinking of staying in Altus or Whichita Falls...

 

Midnite_LS1- Sent you a PM with several choices for lodging in Wichita Falls.

 

John,

What time are you leaving on Friday? I think I'm going to go Friday night as well. Like you said, better than hanging around here doing nothing.

 

I thought we would leave around 7 pm. I doubt if anything gets started until after dark and that's about 8:45.

 

Thought I would give everyone a little update on the track event.

There will be no classes with the exception of a 4.90 quick class (the only reason for this is the owner of the track just got his promod vette running and wants to get some big-tired chassis cars to run him).

.400 pro tree
NO TIMES WILL BE SHOWN (only a win light I believe)
If you want to run someone, go get them, set it up and get to the staging lanes.
The track won't close until there are no more cars in the staging lanes.

Myself, Nitro Dave, and a couple of the other NX guys will be at the track early so we can get a spot along the fence. We're going to be grilling burgers, hotdogs,etc. all afternoon so everyone is more than welcome to stop by and eat or just bs. I will ride the chopper out there so that we can be spotted a little easier for anyone that wants to stop by.

See everyone out there.

 

We can still get timeslips though, right?

 

Yea, you'll still get a timeslip but only your time will be printed on it and the times won't be shown on the scoreboards.

 

What time are we allowed to get into the track? I might go and park my truck in the pits somewhere convient early in the day so I won't be out in the boonies when I show up later that night.

 

LEE! Find me a motor ahhhhh!!!! It's me Chan.

 

Probley Saturday. We are staying at the Hotel Mathis....
Dave

 

I want a cheeseburger with mayo........hold the pickles.......

 

Lee- The track is going to open on Sat. morning (10:00am I think) for the bracket racing program. I am trying to get ahold of Darrell (track owner) to find out if we'll be allowed to stay at the track if we get there during the bracket program (so we can get a good spot and keep it for the street program). I know Billy O'Dell is going to the track Sat. afternoon to make a couple of test passes for the rebuilt motor and then he is going to leave the car in the trailer there until that evening when the street thing starts. I'll let you know something as soon as I know.

Dave- Sounds good. Don't be late, haha

John- Gotcha, we'll have plenty so just stop by. Look for the chopper, we'll be along the fence oppsosite the pits (don't want to take up the racers' space).

 

Sounds good, I will plan on meeting you at your house at about 6:30. On Saturday I am meeting Page at Autozone when he gets off work at 6:00. We will drive by your house to see if you are still there. If you have already left, we will meet you in Vernon. See ya Friday night!

 

I'm going to have to make a flying trip to Fastech tomorrow to pickup Johnny's car. I should be back in time to meet up at 7. Call me before you head towards the house.

 

Oh wait.. Gold Z you are old man sims? I thought you were my cousin Zac. I'm slow.

 

Hey FATHERFORD,

I see that you have a F-150 w/ nitrous, you bringing up the truck to race? Maybe we can line em' up Saturday night.
