I'll be there...maybe driving depending on the street legality of my car! But deff. gonna be there with my old man! A meet and greet would be cool!

 

I'll be there,but I was sad to find out from the organizers that we will have to park our hot rods out in the spectator lot. Pits will be for competitors only due to limited space.The ECTA does not have use of the whole facility,just one runway.

There is a cruise-in in downtown Wilmington on the 28th from 6pm-9pm.

Can't wait !

 

Glad this came up I forgot all about it!!!! My son lives in Dayton O. will be making the trip for sure.

 

Heard they have already filled the race spots

 

That's awesome! I hope this venue is a success will last for years to come.

 

Were heading to Ohio in April to run our flathead Ford powered lakester also coming along will by the teams 200-MPH blown Street Roadster. We are not sure how much pit space we will have but its possible we could hold the greet and meet in the pits on Saturday if all is going well with the race cars. Heres a video of the lakester leaving the line one last time at Maxton so far shes run 162.595 MPH in the standing mile not bad for a 1950 motor.
Pre registration max of 175 vehicles for the April has been reached its going to be a great event.

I'm making changes to mine so I can DRIVE it there. Thanks for the reminder as I just penciled it on the calender. Anyone have Motel info?

 

Lots of places in the area to stay. Wilmington is about 40 min outside Cincinnati.

 

175 spots is the cap, with a waiting list. We'll be there, running the Geezer ExpressII in the Hot Rod Top Speed Challenge. Please take a minute and stop by. Great bunch of people show up running some really interesting "junk". Don't miss it!!

be there for the week end to pick up some things, wish the car was done enough for inspection.

 

I've got a room. Looking forward to a great time.

 

Time, place?

 

Can't wait! We'll be there with Bubba's and the Bonneville truck!

 

Just got asked to go along with Ridge Runner and Bearing Burner. I'm hoping to make it to my first Landspeed event.

 

My partner and I will be there. Building a stude for the salt. We need pics and alot of info. Hope to meet like minded people.

 

Been to the salt, Maxton, and Loring within the last couple of years and am really looking forward to Ohio. Only about a four hour drive! I am stoked!

 

Glad to see its going to be a good turn out. As it gets closer I will post something about a HAMB meet & greet. I am super excited!

 

I will be there doing Motorcycle Tech Inspections and running the laydown bike.

I'm going as well.

I've always wanted to go, but hated to make the 9 hour trip.

Now that it's just 4 hours away, I guess that i have no excuse

Putting the motor and transmission back in the lakester this weekend. Bringing the car to the Frank Marata Auto Show in Hartford next week. Looks like we will actually be ahead of schedule for a change for the April event.

 

Sounds good to me!
Gonna try to drag a few guys down from the Columbus area.
