Having a few drinks tonight to prepare for our mini vacation at the Casino starting tomorrow!

We had loads of fun, but too much drinky & food!

I walked away with $700+ ahead from gambling, all from video poker. The biggest jackpot won was $500!

Hope all is well with everyone!

Morn y'all
My boy is on his way to Shafter, CA. this morning for their annual 1/2 mile drag races.They don't have et's it's just side by side first one to the end wines. Last time he was there he went 157 in his factory stock Shelby GT500. This year he is hoping for 180 mph. He swapped the supercharger for twin turbos. He has double the hp this time.

Happy Mothers day weekend to all the mothers out there.

Floyd, that sounds like a blast. I have another 68 Camaro I started a project on years ago, to make street/strip instead of full time bracket car. Still very unfinished. Would be really cool to finish it and find something like that 1/2 mile, or even full mile racing to give it a go.

Hey Brian, good deal on leaving while ahead. That's about what I just spent on some high quality VP racin fuel Thursday, LOL ....

Y'all have a great weekend and spoil them mommas out there...

The race is held at a small air field in Sfaftner.
It got to windy and hot o the traction went away. He only got 3 passes an the best was 165. It went on the trailer okay, nothing broke so a good day.

Good Mouring. Going to Norwalk today to test.

We got tracks everywhere and not a race in sight for a foot braker. 200+ miles at $6.00 a gallon just don't light my fire. Real good top bulb race at Darlington, 2 10s for $155. Piedmont has either dirt drags or drifting, whatever that is. Oh well guess I'll mow the grass. Everyone have a good day.

Fern, that’s pretty darn surprising. I made it to Rockingham for the weekend. Test session today. Learned a couple things. I’ll probably forget them by tomorrow morning though. lol…

I had a fight reloading the grease gun & the gun won; That's all I'm going to say about that!

Hope all is well with everyone!

Now I'm curious.... Did the grease gun survive? LOL... As many times as I've unloaded/loaded them little *******s, I always hate it, 'cause they're little *******s. I've retired one or two into the floor out of frustration... LOL...

Just got home from 3 days at Rockingham. Had a great time. Super tired, mainly from the 2.5 hour drive and sleeping Friday/Saturday nights in the back seat of the truck. Not necessarily uncomfy, but not really comfy either... If I ever get the dually back on the road, back seats come out and a bed goes in.... I'll update my race recap on the other thread later, after dinner and nap... Hope y'all are doing well. Hey Fern, I'm planning to be at The Farm with CCRA at the end of the month...

Good evening folks... Hope all is well out there. Managed to find time to work on the hotrod this weekend. Decided it's time to add the 2nd battery that I've been planning for a while. Tracking the high gear electrical problem, I also found the MSD ground was only finger tight and grounded to the cage beside the wiring panel. Moved that to the negative on battery, where it belongs. May or may not have been or contributed to the problem, but being "kinda" loose, I'm sure it would have sooner or later. Also found the hole in my slick, dead in the middle of contact patch. Pretty damm small and I assume it may be fixable. Hope so, damm thing has a whoppin 25 runs on it... Car going in for a front end checkup This week as well. Hopefully I'll have my poop squared away for the Gear Jammers race at The Farm coming up...

Hope all y'all are doing well out there.
