Rob Has been incognito for a bit, and Clay City is just around the corner so I thought I'd help him out a bit. Lets start a list of who is coming. Please let Rob when you know for sure!

Rob Simmons -------likely with 2 non running cars
Wayne Venable-------likely with the piggie on jack stands, somewhere north of the track
Lou Madsen
Ryan Covalt
Whitney Covalt
Brian Mimken
Ron Hamby


I'm sure there are lots more so let Rob know ASAP!

Rick :lol: :lol:

I plan on being there as well. Let's hope my car will make it without any problems. :roll:

Got the car aligned, but still not perfect. Spent 2 hrs with the alignment guy yesterday, and the car's suspension is doing wome weird things that we can't figure out. Might have to try putting the factory upper A-arms back on and/or swapping out the front shocks.

Thanks for the cover on getting the Roll Call started Rick. :wink: I wish you could make it too.

The house thing in Georgia has been eating my lunch the last three weeks.

Angie is down there now for the final painting, cleaning and carpet install.

We'll make one more trip down there after Clay City for tree trimming and yard work.

The folks at Mountain Park Dragway have always treated us very well.

Payouts will be the same for both Saturday and Sunday.

I was going to talk up a purse for a Fast Four race, but I got such little response in my "Fast Four and Grudge Matches Galore" thread that I let it drop. :(

I'll still offer $100 to the winner of a Top Eliminator or Fast Four race though.

I'll call the "Maynardville Madmen" to see who all is coming.

I assume the whole Bruner Clan will be there and hopefully Larry Chesney will be able to come.

Surely Allana will have her Lancer radiator issue fixed by then, so hopefuly we'll have two Hargis Lancers there. :wink:

The last time I talked to Howard Davis he was having some teething issues with his new motor, so not sure if he'll make it or not. :(

I didn't get the feeling that Barry Harrison was very interested in getting his Valiant fired back up. :(

When I saw Ron Parker at Dale Rose's funeral I didn't get the feeling that he would be there either. :(

Bagel ain't comin'... :(

Cookie,... What can be said about Cookie...? :roll:

I'll be there with at least GodsRods Duster II and possibly Chase's Demonster as well. Will either one of them run...? I dunno! :shock: :lol:

Well I was planning on racing at Clay City, BUT I got my radiator today and guess what? it is 4 inches too wide!! I called US Radiators/ CoolCraft to find out what the deal was since they promised that they could build one to factory specifications for my little Lancer. When I ordered it I went into detail that this is a two year, one model only radiator that it fits up into the header and "oh yes mama, it will fit, we build them to the factory specifications" We will be getting a refund, but still no dang radiator. I am SOOOO FRUSTRATED right now. We are getting all of our no good Lancer Radiators together and taking them to our radiator man and hoping that between four junk ones he can come up with something.

Still a pretty good turnout, assuming everyone comes. Thanks, Rob. Should be some fast times for everyone!
