It's gonna be a hot mutha.............

Its gunna be hot?????????? Man what a relief. Someone told me there was going to be a huge snow (thats white stuff that falls out of the sky for all you southern guys,) storm in MO the week of the drags.... Here I waisted all that time trying to figuring out a way to hang the snow plow on the front of the coupe and just wasn't getting the job done. Now I can just change the oil and load up the trunk with a good cooler with cold stuff inside and not wonder how I was going to keep warm.

Ok back to reality, its August, its suppose to be hot. The hotel has air conditioning, if (when?) we need some. Gene

 

Looks like we may get lucky and it cool off right before we get there. Sweet.

 

I have the trusty floor mounted swamp cooler ready for ice just waiting to be set in my coupe. Yesterday was HOT here in Dallas.. I almost shut the cowl vent.

 

Cowl vent=furnace blower......

 

Slip in slide.... hell yeah

 

Could be record heat today, down the road here in Arkansas. 101 F with a heat index of 108 possible.

 

101, shit! I was out putting the trans back in my truck at 114!!

That was the official temp at the airport. I was out in the driveway, no shade!

101 is going to be like a cool spell. Looking forward to it.

forecasting the weather 2 weeks out in kansas/missouri? you guys must know something I don't.

hot or not, we'll be there!

 

That's what I want to hear.

 

But everyone forgets year one..............................

 

I haven't! That was one awesome pig!!! I appreciated not having to do the hot grill time as well.

 

huge slip and slides are fun... just dont get real drunk and decide dish soap makes ya go faster ... it does but plays hell on your eyes... not that i have done it i just heard...

 

We've got that problem covered:

 

Here Trent is in action...

 

Yep. The ground was to hard to dig a pit that year.

 

Weather says: Joplin Friday 90 degrees, scattered t-storms. 'Course, it's MO, stick around a few and it'll change. Heat in the morn, a/c in the eve. I love the midwest!!

 

The hurricanes is coming. Let the season begin.

 

Man, my welding gloves still smell like smoked prok from that day!

 

Well it looks like it may not be so hot after all.

 

yep, but this may throw us in Texas a curve.

After this spring/summer you all will feel out of place if it's not raining.

 

I know.....I wait all freaking year for this.....

I'm going no matter what.

 

I hear ya bro!!!

 

This weather link is driving me CRAZY!!!!! I go to it about 12 time a day and it's a DIFFERENT forecast almost every time. I guess I should just stop looking at it cause I'm going no matter what the weather.

 

Yeah we got 8 inches of rain last night. Hopefully it will get out of the area before Friday.

 

8 inches WOW. I don't we have had 1 or 2 inches here all summer long.

 

We have had 48 inches this year so far......we usually get less than that all year.

 

Here in Mid Missouri it's dryer than a popcorn fart. The only moisture we have is what runs down your face.

 

Yeah as of today calling for rain in Joplin fri, sat, and sun, all scattered T-storms. I'm driving my roadster which has no top at all, rain or shine!! Just hope I miss the showers!

 

I haven't had 8 inches in a long time..
