    Paul (INLAW MODEL A) deserves that credit. He has done a top shelf job with our website and has really stayed with it to keep everyone informed.

    Will it be worth a 300 mile trip (1 way) for only Sunday? Or will every thing be blownup by then? The temp will probably be bad, too. Right now we're still planning on leaving at 4:30 a.m. Sunday morn.
     
  20. You will be glad you made the trip I'm thinkin....

    There is a gas station right in town between the track and Sams drive-in. And you can get race fuel right at the track.

    We will be heading over tonight. See you all there.
     
  23. Tanks! See Yaa there!

    All the stations have 93 octane in Byron. Only fill up at Mobile if you have 10-1 compression or higher. It doesn't contain the ethanol the other stations have. It makes a BIG difference.
