I have my last one monday morning. Having this weekend off is probably a blessing because I would have been racing.

Its supposed to rain all weekend anyway. I hope to be back out for TNT to get some runs on the old stang.

Has anyone else received the Week In Racing from PRP ? Mine came through about 1 hour ago, but there's no content.

Mine came through fine.

Congrats, Mark! I admire anyone who could make it through school, especially straight through. I liked the other aspects of college more than class, and actually attending class.

Dan, I have myself set up to get it here and at home. It has the content, just as I wrote it. Did you enable the HTML on your ID?

Looks like a 200+ mile drive to get out of the rain this weekend... Anyone going south?

Not me. Taking a week off. Going to fix my car up, so it will start 1st round next week.

Still trying to piece my junk together. This is the only time I consider a swingset.

CC3-Dan, how do you like PRP so far? How has the car run?

So far so good at PRP, great people, great food! Still adjusting to the track and altitude difference, car is nearly 0.2 slower than we were in Bowling Green in mid March (2,000-2,500' DA difference). It has been fairly consistent except for the first round last week. Picked up almost 0.03 from our TTs, must have been from the oil down and clean up just before we ran. Didn't help #1 son took a nap on the starting line either.

Kaleb tells me the track is great from his perspective. Moves around a little on the big end but confident enough in not using the chute anymore. My daughter will be home from college in another week or so. We'll see how the two drivers-one car concept works... Can't yet get approval from the capital appropriations committee (Mom) for the second car but still working on it. We all walked away from racing because it got too big before. Not going to let that happen again!

Can't go wrong over at Carmen's! Big Grin Glad to hear everything is working out well. So how do you decide who gets to drive? Rock, scissors, paper? Thumbwrestling? Of course, whoever isn't running can always unhook the truck and run it with the us in Street. Big Grin

FYI, there is a station on Freeport Rd, going south past the New Ken bridge, listed as Springdale, used to be Orris, now it's a Glassmere. They have Citgo racing fuel for 6.39, pretty sure the pump said 110 octane.
