  4. ^ looking great, hopefully that will keep you guys awake at the starting line! :p

    Time to look after that clutch now, cause that belt-driven air cleaner can make that clutch REALLY smoke!!

    Looking forward to racing you guys next July;)

    Sub zero wind chill tonight. Nothing sounds better than a meltdown in July.
     
  6. 80-something & humid sounds a whole lot better...

    That mystery motor lost some of its MOJO at the Fall Out! Hope they find it!

    Carly got herself a job so she can buy herself some new harnesses...and MAYBE some "go faster" parts! She had a great year started at the beginning of the summer running 16 second quarter miles and finishing at the Fall Out running a best time of 12.86.

    Not that it really matters for the race track but we have new dual exhaust and a fresh alignment on the leaning tower of power. Sounds great idling, sounds like a bumble bee when you wind it up What can I guess for an E.T. 16 seconds?

    I've already taken a few miles off the right rear tire. Had to prove to these kids it would do a burn out.

    I hope the Meltdown crew is well rested. I predict a flooding of emails is close to beginning

    I hope I can stay up that late.
    Yesterday has a long and tough day.
    Not to say today was any better.

    My reply email is dated 1/2/18 @ 12:00am too, hoping to beat my number 7 entry number from a couple years back.

    Done... Scout and Prefect - After last year's Premature Pre-Registration / Red light start - I waited a couple of Mississippi's this year before pulling the trigger. Sent document is time stamped 12:00:03. That likely puts me as a solid top 50 or so...

    I was ready and no plans for any upgrades - until I found shrapnel in the #1 cylinder. I'll be ready

    Wow... 400 emails in 9 hours and it has filled the email storage limit so people are now getting bounced back...

    If you didn't get an auto reply saying we received it, let me know.

    You fellas are crazy. Only reason I registered at 1:30 instead of 5:30 is because I had to pee.

    My daughter wants to know if she gets in. If she can have her senior pictures taken on the track? If any photographers are interested shoot me a message
