I guess that means you are not willing to share any track secrets with us "out-o-towners" huh?? :lol:

Like where the pot hole is...or which lane is 7" shorter...etc.

It's not the bamboozler you should be concerned with.....its the driver. :D :D

Well can you at least tell me if they sell alcohol at the track. And before you ask..the racing kind not the drinking kind! :lol:

Just want to know how much we need to bring with us.

Tom, in GA they call racing alcohol 'drinkin gas'.
My GA prediction is, I won't be there for my 1st SS Race. I made a bonehead mistake. Scrambled around last couple of weeks, got everything ready, called work to take my last two sick days off (I work weekends), called Charlie S to see if and when he's leaving, that's when I found out I had the WRONG weekend! For some reason I thought the race was on the 20th. At least I didn't drive 500 miles for nothing, just missing the race is bad enough as I can't take off for work again. :cry:
If the Silver Dollar race date stands, I'll see every one there next memorial day.

Tom they don.t sell any type of alochol at the track so bring about 50 gals. I think your car has two or three bamboozlers in it two for the engin/trans and one for the driver maybe more. Thanks Possum Parker :D :D

Hey Ron - went to a heads-up 6.70 race Sat. They were running a .400 protree so there is no bambozzler that will help the driver on that tree! 6 rounds and all my lights were .460-.488. Not bad for a duck with a little old slant six huh?

I predict that a possum is going to get treed in GA this weekend.
:lol:

Filled up all 5 jugs today. We are ready!

See ya Saturday. Should get to Calhoun around 7pm on Friday. Sorry to hear you wont make it Cecil. Just means you have to make a run at rookie of the year in 2004!
