Before I forget, I want to thank all the folks at the track who work hard so we can have fun: Bob B, Bobby O, FrankT, Tony, Keith, Josh, Nick, Steve, Larry, Don, FrankC, Doug, Pam, Greg, the water box guys, the ticket booth guys, and anyone I'm forgetting. You all work thankless jobs, but we're glad you're there. I'm planning on going through my tranny, maybe go to a manual valve body, and upgrading the converter to a true stall, so I can leave off the 3rd being shallow again. (Hey Rich, wanna tear up a tranny?) I'd love to find a body shop as a sponsor who would put the quarters and paint on. I think the engine will be left alone for '07. Oh, and some practice tree racing, whenever we figure that out. What did you run, BlackDog? I didn't start going regularly until '96, joined points in '99 and since. While I might envy you in FL come January, you might envy us come July!

I raced a 13-second streetable Z28 outta The Motorworks for a time, then raced in West-by-God-Virginnie and Ohio: by '96, I'd sold-off some of my stuff and was out-of the sport, but kept the Z28. I ran my ol' Corvette the Saturday before Thanksgiving in 72* temps, and got sun-burned doing-so: I don't think I'm ever coming-back to Taxylvaniastan..... | |||

Very cool! The Brewers are good people. If you have any pics from when you ran up here, it would be cool to see them. Oh yeah? Well I ran my Cutlass the Saturday AFTER Thanksgiving at PRP! Ok, so it was freak weather, but who would argue with a crystal clear, sunny 65 degree day in late November in PA? You might be back up here... one of them hurricanes might pick you up and replant you!

Mark (Sr.) and I grew-up half a block away from each-other, and he really didn't go to the track all that-much until I kinda 'dragged' him-along with me, making-sure the car ran OK, so we go WAY-back together: I even took video tape of their wedding entourage, doing burnouts after the ceremony on the way to the reception, in their street/strip cars, on the streets of their hometown. I think my ex-wife has almost all of my old photographs from Keystone, showing the hillside where the moto-cross track used to be situated, and the 'old', L.E.D./ connected-to-nothing 'spot-boxes' behind the starting-line, ofetn with burned-out numbers: I got some old, hand-written ET-cards from the old-days, laying-around somewhere, probably in the console of the Camaro..... | |||

Sounds like you guys have some plans. Mark I like the black primer look. I raced one of my Jr cars in grey primer for half the season. I definitly want to have a practice tree race this winter. It will be a good time. As for me this winter I dont know what is going to happen. Want to do a lot of stuff but we will see if the money fairy comes along and drops a lump in my lap. One thing for sure is that the HEMI is coming out. Havent decided if the car is going to be slower or faster.... AJ | |||

yep the prime / flat black look is cool. ....I love a flat black job with some really nice polished or powder coated rims. Mark your going to like the glide. Most important, keep the shiny side up | |||

AJ, were you going to Lake Cumberland before they called it off? Brianna, way to be up front about it! Gimmee presents! Anyone see the pics on PRP's site?

Cuck, No I wasnt going to Lake Cumberland this year. I called it an end to the season after the Halloween race. Kyle, I know they are but they also cost an arm an a leg to get em there. The HEMI needs to come out and be looked over. Going to get bearings and maybe a cam. You will see the HEMI back at the tack soon ennough in somthing. Maybe not Betsy but it will be back. AJ | |||

yea AJ i can agree with ya there...i priced stuff for my dad's coronet and it ain't cheap...there's alot more bang for the buck with the wedge stuff. I'd just figured i'd bust your chops... Mark-i like the black primer look too, i think it'd look pretty damn good on your car | |||

Bill I came up with an idea that will benefit all of us! Since this is the season of giving you can give AJ the dragster for Christmas, this way you will get rid of the dragster, AJ will get a dragster and I will get presents now and in the future. Its a win-win situation! | ||
