A couple guys that were at the Showdown said that they were goin' to Nats East because the traditional park area was back. Smokey
at least one road rat from ny should be there and maybe some prospecters thursday friday and saturday
I believe that was 2003, the first year I met the So-What guys, and Scottyville was inside the fairgrounds. It was a blast. Big Olds has a top and windows now. I do need to make it back there one of these years.
I may have room on the lot for a small camper or tent. We're across the street from the fairgrounds. If interested send me a PM. Clark
I'll be really interested to see how York plays out this year. I'm sure that fuel, lodging and other costs will dissuade some from attending. Plus, I noticed that the entrance fee for spectators this year will be $14. If I recall, it was $12 last year and just a few years ago it was $9. So now, I've got a 17% admission charge to deal with on top of gas. Figuring 200 miles of travel plus $28 to get in along with my wife and that's an expensive joy ride if they're not going to be many cars. I'll see you guys Saturday, anyway.
used to go to york then sneaked out one day and went to "all ford carlise" had more fun and never went back.
is there a dirt track there ?? kind a sick of going to shows and siting and watching with nothing to do .
Don't know about York, but there's a fine dirt track across the street from my vet hospital in Selinsgrove, 75 miles north. www.[B]selinsgrove[/B]speedway.com/
I can't make it this year. Saving up for Bonneville. Everyone make sure to say "Hi Bart" to my pops if you see him cruising around, it really confuses him.

I'll be there Friday. Unfortunatley, my '31 won't be ready (kids and job got in the way this year - it's that last 5% of the work that KILLS you), but my Dad is bringing his '35 P/U, so I'll hitch a ride in with him. I was hoping my car would be back on the road, but it's been to York about ten times in the past 15 years, so I'm not that pressed. As long as we bring SOMEthing. Jay
hey theres latimore speedway not to far away from york it has the eastern motorsports museum cool place
We have been out to that dirt track and it's pretty cool.....good local flavor, I'm not sure if it's still there but there was some go-kart tracks a couple miles pass the speedway onthe right, me and my old man had a blast one year running the shit out of them.
Yep......that was the first time I met you in person. You and "beatnick" had driven all night through the rain from Detriot without a roof and we were there to greet you..... THAT'S when I knew you were the "real deal!!!"
I'll be at York with the 34. Unfortunately, so might the rain and the T-storms. 20 - 30 % chance everyday, but who cares. Those numbers mean there's a 70 - 80 % chance it won't rain. If it does, I got Rain X, a roof over my head, new tires and one slow assed windshield wiper. Only thing I ain't got is heat, air and defrost.
