count Norm in for sure.

I wouldn't miss Bistol this year, this will probably be one of the best Stant 6 races ever. The blue car is allergic to the wall down there, and I doubt I will ever race it at Bristol again. It does still have the Bristol Tech sticker on it from 1999 though. I am going to take the Blazer and drop off a load of parts at Meril's. I might borrow one of his extra cars and race, or I might just be there to take pictures and meet old friends.

I hope as many racers as possible get to this event.

Would love to go, but not likely. Money is just not available, at this time, and 2 weeks does not give me much chance of raising enough. I am really suprised, I was able to make 4 slant six races, already, this year. That is almost 6,000 miles of towing.

OK, Charlie gets a bye run - such a big supporter of Slant 6 racing!

Seymour will hopefully drive a Meril-mobile.
