Slant Six Forum :: Clay City, KY - Oct. 6-7, 2012.

we could tie Mason-Dixon for the highest car count this year at 17

Next year I get 3 weeks of vacation, and I can split 2 up any way I want. I may actually get to go to more Slant races next year.

Rob, thanks for the offer on the car swapping. I told Whitney and she would love to drive one of your cars instead of the Dart. So if you don't mind running the Dart that would work out great. One question, do you like nitrous? If so how much?

I'm on vacation now but when I get back I plan on playing with the nitrous a little. Hopefully I can get some things figured out! I'm looking forward to Clay City. Just hoping for some nice weather for a change!

It would be great to see you at more races next year Dennis!

You've got all winter to get the 'Tuna together. Then you and Cookie can challenge Possum & me to some honest to goodness Grudge Matches!

Except you and Wookie still won't have running cars.

Hell, I may even have the 340 car done by then.

Hey we are worth the wait! Sides this is what Mater will look like after I squash him but good!

Or you can just stay with Rob till the banquet!

I can't speak for Cookie... He's YOUR protege.... So his shortcomings as a racer are YOUR failures as a mentor...

("Shortcomings/Failures" line adapted from the movie Gladiator in the scene where the son murders his father... Kinda like Cookie takin' a ready-to-race car given to him by Bagel and takin' it all apart...

Mike Andreas can't make it, so I took him off the "Hopefuls" list. Charlie Schmid too. I also took poor ole Cookie off the list. Get well soon my friend. With a little luck (maybe a lot) we could tie Mason-Dixon for the highest car count this year at 17. I don't see it happening, but it would be nice. If everyone on the top list AND the 5 remaining hopefuls race we could actually have 18 for the "win"... Rob Simmons Chase Simmons Lou Madsen Ryan Covalt Whitney Covalt Brian Mimken Ron Hamby Rodney Hargis Meril Bruner Gary Bruner Lukus Bruner Courtney Bruner Turbo Toad Hopefuls: Alanna Hargis Larry Chesney Seymour Pederson Jack Everhardt Mark Charapich Probably Nots, But You Never Knows.. : Norm Foster Ron Parker Howard Davis Barry Harrison Dennis Schumers Will Burns Any others...?

Mater and Cookie, The bounty was just for the first one to make it down a track in a Slant 6 racecar at a Slant 6 race. So, Rob, all you have to do is make a full pass and you have it. I said nothing about needing to win a round or grudge match. I also hope things improve for you soon, Wayne! Just clarifying... Lou

Quote: we could tie Mason-Dixon for the highest car count this year at 17 I think we are safe, because I'm not at all sure the first two on your list will even make it there! If you have 18 that would be great!!! Go for it. Rick

Went to the Doc today. New antibiotics - this makes the fourth kind. Two inhalers and an oral steroid. Trying to make it to work tommorrow. I would rather tow a non runnin' car to KY then put up with this! The positive side watchin some old tv shows on youtube inbetween naps. Watched an old Kolchak The Night Stalker with Darrin McGavin. Loved that show as a kid. I hear that Depp is bringin' him back. Thanks for all the get well stuff! Later guys!

Hey Lou, I know your offer is just for the first pass, but I don't feel right takin' it with Cookie laid up with pneumonia... I can wait 'til next season to put my whoopin' on him. (I officially decline your generous offer of a tank of gas [if I do indeed make a full pass in GodsRods Duster II during eliminations at Clay City.. ]) Cookie and I will pick this up again next season. Now, that DOESN'T mean I'm gonna lay off bustin' his chops all winter fer bein' nuthin' but a no account, car dismantlin', whiny boy, POSER! ('course, ever body already knowd I wuz gonna do that! ) Rick, Rick,... Rick... Enough with the "Negative Waves" dude!

Just hoping for some nice weather for a change! Hey Ryan, That's great! I'll get Chase behind the wheel of the GodsRods Duster II for him to get a feel for it (probably at the test & tune Friday night at Clay City ) That will leave "Stella" for Whitney to drive. I've never run nitrous and it makes me a little nervous, but I'm willing to try it if you're comfortable with that. You have bigger oatmeal raisin cookies than me running nitrous on your tow vehicle that far from home! You remember the weather at Clay City last year! Clear and COLD!! Great for racing, but dress warm! Extended forecasts aren't worth much, but right now it looks like this : Friday Clear. High of 72F. Winds less than 5 mph. Friday Night Clear. Low of 52F. Winds less than 5 mph. Saturday Clear. High of 68F. Winds less than 5 mph. Saturday Night Clear. Low of 50F. Winds less than 5 mph. Sunday Clear. High of 66F. Winds less than 5 mph. Sunday Night Clear. Low of 50F. Winds less than 5 mph.

Quote: Except you and Wookie still won't have running cars. Hell, I may even have the 340 car done by then. Whatever Dude... I'll post some pictures of GodsRods Duster II RACING at Clay City for you. I may not be behind the wheel, but it will be racing. I'll fiddle with the Challenger (and maybe GodsRods Duster III ) over the winter... I can't speak for Cookie... He's YOUR protege.... So his shortcomings as a racer are YOUR failures as a mentor... ("Shortcomings/Failures" line adapted from the movie Gladiator in the scene where the son murders his father...

Sides this is what Mater will look like after I squash him but good! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uoLoyg3JKRQ Yes, I am worth the wait! And I am also quite deliscious and go well with many things. So what if I'm technically a fruit! Ya'll two boys just get busy on yer junk and let me know when yer FINALLY ready fer yer whoopins. I'll still be here waitin' on ya... as usual...

Once was the time when I would have best him so hard his Gramma would have bruised.
