    Bob has made some improvements to the track
    http://beaversprings.com/results/2010/New tower.htm
    Also has cut a deal with Pepsi and said all their trucks in the area have a 4' x5' Jalopy Showdown Drags sign on the back! Meeting with Bob soon, more updates to follow.

    If you are in Manchester, you will want one of the Selinsgrove hotels. The place is kind of in between everywhere. I do wish there was a closer hotel.
     
  13. Do you think I would be able to run this at the drags or would it be outta place.
    Or are you looking for a more vintage theme here
     
  14. That would be this car

    We'll be there Friday night. Can't wait! Last year was a blast!
     
  29. Along with the Jalopy Showdown in York Springs, they're the best shows in the northeast in my opinion. Sad to not be running anything this year, but the wife and I will be there, toting a few friends as well. Wish we could camp out, but not gonna happen this time, wife working until 2am. I'm sure she'd like her 5 hours of sleep in a real bed.
