Good Evening or Good Morning if you are looking on hump day.... Its still summer out here in the desert southwest low 90's and breaking records daily , a cool off is in the works as today was in the mid 80's !!!! That is still 15 degrees above the norm for later Nov. Going down to 81 degrees on Saturday and Sunday 77.... LOL

Floyd , I been looking for that info too , went to lunch on Monday with a participant . But didn't hear about the winners as much as all the racer's from my area who went and my friend going a bunch of rounds. I think he my have made a little or broke even, hard to do when your pulling a 4 car trailer be hide a toter and buying 3 drums of alkyl and then spending over $1400 in entry fees...

Have A Great One Everyone...

YESS

I watched some of it. Some people broke a lot of stuff. Trey Sommers tossed the rods in his '56 on day one. He borrowed Mark Kirbys Grape Ale for the rest of the event.
Craig Dales crashed his dragster pretty bad. He's still in the hospital in Vegas with two broken arms. Supposed to be to be sent home tomorrow.

Evenin' all! I hope your over center day went well. Kinda hard getting back into the swing of things after the holiday, but I'm getting by. Nice stretch of weather for Pittsburgh in late November.

Fern, glad you got to go and have some fun. Carb worked ok? Looking good, saw Michael's pic of you.

Barry, I feel for you on that stuff. Very frustrating for sure.

Nick, that sounds great about now, a little chilly out there tonight.

You all have a good night!

Had more fun at my colonoscopy...js...
Pretty much packed here still negotiating well and septic. A real pain in the Azz literally..needs work let’s say and I’m not paying for it so it could fall through and ripple backwards however we are protected going in..it’s good to educate yourself then go in armed with data. Hope it works for us.. engineered septic is not cheap in Ca..

Fern been on a roll--after Piedmont had my last therapy on my neck then went to Baltimore to be with daughter for her chemo treatment. Got my new (used) F150 up to MD, inspected and tagged, done. Came back home and went out past Charlotte, 175mi, to get half a van for my friend in Baltimore. Getting ready to take that up and bring back 2 Smart cars. Got to get the leaves out of the gutters and get new tires mounted on my trailer. Also took a 66 Cutlass to the shredder. Darn shame to scrap these old cars but I am 76 years old and this stuff has got to go. Everyone have a good one. Oh, has anyone heard anything about Kevin Pollards races for next year? Nothing on here except a date??????

Happy Birthday to your little man Camaro,hey gang been overwhelmed as of late lots of ups and downs with my son was hoping to have home before Christmas but not looking like that's going to happen Dss folks are some of the most heartless people I've ever seen his next day in court is Jan.8 hoping and praying he can come home by then.
Got to tell y'all a good one the electric scooter Nicole and Scott spear headed and bought me with help from lots of friends has been a God Send but I'm waiting for the 4th rear end assembly it's still under warranty bless them for getting a warranty they sent someone out the first two times to install on the third one they sent I asked them if I could install to help on costs so after him asking about my mechanical ability and I told him I'm a Old drag racer he said we'll send it to you and you can install so today this would be the fourth one I hated to call but it's still under warranty so he said no problem I'll get another one out to you and after talking about what's been happening he thinks it mite be the offset of the wheels could be the problem he offered me a job lol repairing for other customers lol. Mite as well they're simple it has a weight limit of 330lbs he asked what I weighed I said 250 and he said don't worry about it we'll get it straightened out,what a great company unreal in this day and time for that kind of service.

Good Morning to all. what's everyone have planned for the weekend? Looks like I got garage duty , after last weeks motor install being done I need to make my work space as nice as the car. LOL

All my Buddy's are at PRI so I don't have a reason to go out and visit anyone , so I may make some real good progress if the wife doesn't have much for me this week.

Looks like the boss let me take off the Dec 29th to break in the motor and get it dialed in before the Hangover Nationals... How stupid on my part thinking I could do that with only two hits before eliminations on that Saturday ...LOL

You All Have a Great Weekend....

I'll take Chucks Slice of pie, he really doesn't need it...Hahaha
