Sorry to hear that Clive. Glad to see that you will be represented in the list races.
Probably should have let that Cat drive the cars over the ocean. Would have been quicker.

Sponsors



Ecbill
A sweet '57 Nomad custom flamed paint job on a pull back chassis. Thank you Bill!


Finistauri
Miscellaneous good items from bodies, to shunts, tires, and braids. Thank you Mike!


Alpink
Assorted small action figures. I have started a pretty cool collection of these just from what Al has donated in the past. Thank you Al!


Dynomike
100 count 1989 and 1990 IHRA Drag Cards....very cool. Also some neat little roller bottles. Not sure what to use them on but I'm sure our builders can find a use for them. Thank you Mike!


Skillet
Sam knew that I was not giving away trophies this time so he stepped up and provided these mini versions. They were labelled but had gotten messed up in the mail. One will go to each Class Winner and Best Appearing. Thank you Sam!


Angry Jeff Racing
Some of the new stuff and a little of the old for everybody.

Thank you for your sponsorship it is appreciated!!

Ok here we go finally.......it's about time right?
Well I need to touch all the bases. All the pre race stuff is taken care of now it's time to run these cars and see what you guys sent. I will only be Qualifying Gasser and 4 Gear Stock. 4 Gear Unlimited will be random placement on the ladder. Gasser and 4 Gear Stock will run at 18v and Gear Unlimited at 26v. Each car will make one pass in each lane. The best ET will dictate ladder placement. It's 5pm here now. I still have several hours left in me. Let's see what I can get done. I will try to get some times posted tonight....but no promises.

Track has been wiped down....temperature is 68deg. Qualifying starts now.
