Post subject:  Wilkesboro Race date for 2008
Its official Danny Dunn has us scheduled for JULY 19TH. East Coast racers there no events scheduled weeks before or after this race so it might be a good time to mark your calender and make plans to attend. We can easily set a new attendence record and will most assuredly be a 50 point race. Remember the last two years a street car has won the big money, so come get your share of Tim Harrolds big purse. P.S. note the Farmington event on May 10th. is also has a big purse.
Thanks
Ron Hamby

I have yet to be able to attend this event :evil: Every year it seems to land on the weekend I have to work, and this year is no different. :evil:

I might be able to get to use some vacation time for it this year, we'll see how it shakes out. :roll:

It Aint Over Until I Win

Possum, I was talking to Mike last night about coming down. It looks like at least $700 in just gas money to tow there. Not sure if I can afford that, plus taking days off without pay to make the trip. I'm not eligible for vacation until August. :(

I would like to get to an 1/8th mile race and bomb the B/N record though. :lol:

I'm pretty sure I can run fast enough in the 1/8th to get bounced for no bar. :twisted:

Is that a challenge? :twisted: July gives me plenty of time, to improve my Valiant. :lol: :lol: Only 2 secs to go. :roll: :roll:

Well Charlie, my car always did run a lot better in the short half of the track than the big end. I have gone in the high 7:40's a few times, but by 1000 feet it lays over like a rock.

I put taller tires and more gear in it for this year, and am adding a new fuel system from cell to regulator. I'm hoping I can run a high 7:3X. 7:35 is the bubble for a bar. :lol:

You car has always been quicker then mine, but you are giving me something to shoot for. My best 1/8, so far, is an 8.45. That means I need to improve by 1 full second, to be with your target. I'm pretty confident, I can pick up a 1/2 second pretty easily. We'll have to see what happens, by July. :D See you at WRP :twisted:

PS: My Cuda has done low 8's in the 1/8, and my Valiant is 50 more cubes and 500 less weight. So I have a shot.

PPS: Do you think you can get into "B" nitrous, without going on a diet? :P
