    I'll be there for the first couple days. Sadly I'm not able to do the HAMB BBQ this year though, due to some personal things, sorry guys. Hope to see some faces there though.

    Our plan is to leave Saturday morning, be there by Monday. Not driving the A:( it's running a bit warm for that kind of drive. Also going to do the drive to check out Alvord Lake in Oregon. "29hotrod55custom" is working on setting up races there.

    We have a contingent from MI & CO coming out. I'm putting a new trans into my roadster for this trip & I think that I have my buddy talked into bringing out his 32 3-wdo too!

    Here's a pic of our cars inside Greenfield Village @ the 75th Anniv of the Deuce last summer.

    CAN'T WAIT!!!

  25. I'll be there, I'm catching a ride with some guy named Lucky Burton.
     
  26. Michael,

    Sweet racecar! ... Just curious ... what class? ... Jim Howe's 307.555 mph has held onto the A / Blown Fuel Modified Roadster record since 1991 ... you guys plan on knocking on that door?

    Here's to a hard, dry & smooth surface this year ... and Salty Rooster-tails! :)

    UPDATE: I saw on the SCTA website that the Jesel & LeFevers #701 racecar is pre-entered in the C motor / Unblown Gas Modified Roadster class ... current C/GMR record was set last year @ 255.747 mph... so I guess you're setting your sights on a minimum of 258.304 mph (255.747 + 1%)?
