Let me know what time you guys will be heading up and I will try and meet you out at the highway.
I'm up in the Corning area and closest exit I can actually remember the number for is 636 - I can wait on the getonramp for ya'll to cruise on by and then run up with ya.
Since I won't have the kids I can bring a cooler of snacks and drinks and just sleep in the van - so I'm gonna plan it that way??? Notice I said "plan it" :wink:

This sounds like even more folks than the earlier meet!!
Can't wait
Later
Dan

Easiest thing to do is have someone at the top end to make sure they are not dumping or pedalling like they do on Pinks. :lol: :lol:

I really don't think anyone will be dumping to get $25. It would really kill their chances for a consistent run in the eliminations. :D

Half track ET x 1.55= bogie...off by more than 2 tenths ... time tossed...i.e. pick any full pasws time ticket you got say 8.569 1/8.. multipy by 1.55 to get a ...hang on gotta do the math.. uh yeah.. 13.281.. real timeslip 13.379... another..13.289 half... x1.55...20.597...real ticket... 20.569...works for me ...

HI Jesse; Why not show up anyway at Redding and watch the largest number of slant6 cars West of the Mississippi run together? You don't need to bring your car..just come out and support our group. You will get to see what others have done with their cars, get ideas for future plans, and see first hand how things have worked out. Should save you a lot of time and $$$. On Saturday, the track opens at noon and again on Sunday, at 9:00 am. Please try to make one of these days as it will be good to meet you in person..See you at Redding...

Good luck and see you all there.

Looking forward to seeing you there TF!

The /6 Drag Racing community is made up of some great people!

Now if I can only get my machine to rock & Roll!

Looks like we'll be leaving from Fopar's place around noon. Put a Burger on the fire for us! We'll be wailing down the freeway once we clear the border!



:D :D :D
