I am shooting for the 10.00 class next year. Thanks again to all of my KY friends and Tn brothers for their help and support. Big chuck I want to see you back in bg next year with a new Ride and hope you get better.


Damon and Blake Sorry that I didn't get to talk to you guys much. I will try and do better next time..

Alky will fix the heat issue................

If I hadn't been running E85 I think I would have been out in the first 5 miles...

If it had been 20* hotter I think it would have knocked out 95% of the cars. My car hit 210* at one point while we were creeping with the wind at our back. I got DQ for my alternator crapping out and switching batteries.

Sorry to hear you got D.Q. Casey.
I saw where those bike riders got police motorcycle escorts.

I was not aware at the time that we were supposed to obey stop signs and light signals within the city limits..... I must have missed that @ the drivers meeting, but I did listen to everything those guys said.

Thanks. I probably would've had more fun of course if the car was running right and I got some good passes. Sux that I have to wait another year.

I either need to run my car more or just sell everything. The more I think about it, its cheaper than therapy....

Don't sale it ! Life is to short Have fun!

When we got to BG we didn't have any runs on the car with the new engine . We had a engine to go down two weeks before BG. Tuesday the week of BG the engine was still on the stand and no oil pan and timming cover , but we made it! Thanks again to Red for his help in helping me get the engine in by Tuesday night as well as Mikey and Mick. Blake came through with the Parts and a big thanks to him for that as well as good prices.

I also want to thank red again for posting Pics . I Haven't Had a chance to see because it is blocked here at school.

There is another TS race in early May @ the NMCA race @ Beech Bend

Did you get to run any in the Sunday Bracket races ?

x2 on the NMCA, there are less cars and you get to beat up on brand X guys. Good times.

I'll be looking forward to taking that 11 second title from you Whitey!

I sure didnt. I had to pay the piper on sunday for my two days in BG. I was on my way to Destin. Did they get to run much? I heard they got rained out.
