I'll be there too.This time I think I'll drive the car on a trailer.We don't need any bus wrecks this time .I hope I can hit some high 10s with the fuel problem fixed.Wouldn't miss this one for the world,had a blast last time.Afraid the LUV won't be ready by then though if its in march.BTW the kids will definitely stay home this time!They like to drove me crazy last time.

Where is that track? It looks pretty cool.

 

[Tin Man]

The track is called Temple Academy Dragway. Here is a link to their site:

http://www.templeacademy.com/

It is about 45 miles North of Austin.

I see you live in Alvin (The home of Nolan Ryan). I went to ACC for about a year. I lived in Pearland for awhile.

I am interested in attending, I don't think it would be too bad a drive for me from San Antonio. I have no car to enter right now but love Buicks.

I will be there with one other person.

I will be driving my 87 Buick GN.

TE-61 should be here next week. Hopefully no more 13 second slips for me anymore.

Race date correction

ok Ya'll The 10th of April is not the race date --- Reason: It is easter weekend and I am sure there are some people who would prefer to be at home instead of a hotel easter morning. So we are going to move the race to either the last week of march or 1st week of April. Date will be determined shortly- Let everyone know...
