What kind of dress?

A strapless, blue, sequined mini dress would be quite appropriate for this event.

Thanks alot Lloyd

It's great to see the interest in this event from spectatoters to possibly 16 racers already! Also Really Happy to we have our photo buff to help preserve the moment for those participating.

If we get it set up as a Test & Tune, open to the public, to keep the cost down. You would think there might not be a large public tuneout for a Monday night event. could be wrong but let's see what the poll says. Besides they would be watching us wishing they had a SSR too!

Hmmmm.... Now I see Paul and Blue are gonna play. I heard that Paul may have a 4.56 gear installed by then and I know Blue has had one for a while. Looks like a silver will be able to beat them fair and square! Also it looks like the racers and the non-racers are split at 50/50...cool, I was hopin' this would be a go!

I am there ...............PAPA

And the superchargers don't scare me, I have pasta power. As for the pits well, what happens in the pits stays in the pits lol, Then water balloons at 10 paces. As for the ladies well have always been a sucker for a pretty face, so i am keeping my eyes closed from the starting line to the finish. Who wants to race first???? And by then i should have lost more weigh too lmao..........NOW JUST A NOTE!! HELMETS don't know thier rules but here you need them, even more being drop tops. Iam bring two with me so just in case. Funny wont wear one on my harley but there it would be a good idea. Fun is Fun but SAFTY always come first.. then second, third and i win....................................

I would like to race, but SSR ONLY, as I have been to the Gateway international on open track night, no slicks, with my other truck. Most I have met have acted like a bunch of idiots and the local rice burners with their fart cans, are very annoying. That is way I have never gone with the SSR. Plus the local manufacturer reps have showed up coping Vin's to void warranties. This is not some story, but fact.

This event is not being held at the Gateway International.......it's at the Ozark International Dragstrip, just outside of Springfield. Gateway is located in St. Louis. Ozark is a small dragstrip which runs 1/8 and 1/4 mile runs. This event is being held on a Monday night, so it shouldn't be too crowded.

poppa I think you have smoked one too many banana peels.......maybe you slipped on a banana peel and damaged something.... everybody waving at you is the fact that they do not like the color, they are trying to hail a cab......

OK Grasshopper, you know, I actually did try banana peels in 1965 in Korea but that's another story.
Never mind hailing cabs. What about the girls who are flashing?
You are going to think I'm driving a school bus .... because I'm really going to take you to school and teach you a lesson on the track in Springfield .... So go smoke that. Ha!

Yeah what is going on with these red guys, I smell a sneak attack. By the way about letting your mother-in-law drive You are a very brave man and that conclusion was drawn from several different viewpoints. I can't wait to meet you.
By the way. Are you a good loser ? ;^)
