Event Coverage Steel In Motion 5/19/2012 - Shadyside Dragway, Shelby N.C.

Can't wait to see everyone again this year! I'm gonna be wearing some sunscreen this time around.

 

This is awsome, hopefully this vet will be stateside to make it to the show!

 

No kidding, it was blazing out there last year.

 

Just got back from the Greelyville HAMB drags and there was alot of buzz about this event. I have it penciled in as I am still hoping to make it.

 

Hope you make it motoandy!!! It is going to be a blast!!!

 

we've got a caravan coming up from the lowcountry. we're gonna take the backroads fri. morning, take our time and enjoy the ride.

 

Curtis, Still need a pinstriper? I WILL be there, but if you're full, I might just be there for the fun (still rod-less, but I could bring my moto).

 

Plan on coming with the wife......

 

Doc, you got any 15x6 or x7 (same pattern)?

 

Brett, We currently have 5 pinstripers that are planning on working the show. It is totally up to you if you want to stripe. I know it is great to make money and put a smile on the folks face you stripe for but sucks when you miss out on a lot of the fun.

 

5x4.75 pattern?

 

We have a great addition being added to the event on Friday night!

The Cackle Crawl

That's right, the rides with engines that are capable of making the hair stand up on the back of your neck and give you goose bumps (you know the one's)will make an idle pass down the dragstrip Friday night!!! This will end the Friday night activities and bring on the anticipation to Saturday!

 

Yes, I could use 2 7" and 2 6". Thanks!

Oh, obviously I want older centers, no rallys!

 

I have a couple extra 15x7's laying around (not rallys)....I run them on my '66.

The 15x6 wheels should be easily found at any pull-a-part.....

 

yall gonna have some nitro cars?

 

Exactly what is required to run nitro? Just wondering.

 

Not "running" nitro cars, they're going to "crawl" down the track......

 

He's pulling the ole' "something suddenly came up"

 

That was so last January dude. I'm committed to Jalopy Showdown for Business opportunities but that all can change!!!!

Awe man, my cat had puppies and a broke my thumb. That's why I wasn't there!!!


I want to go to Shadyside since I know it's going to be killer!!! The rest of the guys will all be there whether I go or not and this year they are going to SHUT IT DOWN!!!!

 

b.a.l.l.s.

 

Shhhhhhhhh....

 

So, are the Iron Lords going to form a caravan like they did last year? If so, I'd like to know what time ya'll are meeting. I definitely needed the added security of the pack when my car broke down. Thanks again to those guys who helped me limp my car to the show and back.

 

SHUT IT DOWN!!! Oh yeah, this is gonna be fun!!!

 

uh....ok.

Smokin'

 

For those of you who would rather use a motel vs. camping, although not the cheapest but the closest option to the track is AmericInn 428 E College Avenue, Boiling Springs NC 28017 Phone 704-434-9996 or 800-634-3444

 

Can't wait to hit this show! I missed last year but will not this year. Our band is playing the Pre Party so should be fun. I am hoping my 49 will be done in time but doubt it. I still have to wire it, exhaust, run brake and fuel lines and tank, seat, have the inspector come check it out for my title, get it tagged, etc. I am pretty pissed about it though but nothing I can do about it with only 3 weeks left. ;(

 

I'm getting a group up headed out of Boiling Springs SC....
Hit me up if you want to roll out on Saturday....

 

Let me know when your heading out. We'll be driving the dodge since the 54 aint ready, Wouldn't miss it.

 

I'll be there, hopefully the 61 Caddy with be ready. I'm gonna need some pinstriping done! Can't wait, missed it last year
