Time runs at the old airport??

Bring her along.... 200 miles per hour is very romantic!

Some where I saw they needed volunteers. Weather being what is can be, I'm interested. Would you be cruising as a group? If so, from where?

Most of the guys that are going are close to there or even north of there I think. I may run up there but not sure if anyone else from Ky is going. I'm just playing it by ear at this time.

WE will be there running an El Camino.

Got any pics of this rocket ship?

Its a street car. I built it for the HOTROD Power Tour 2009. We started Land speed racing shortly thereafter. Its been 132 at Maxton.

Sounds like a fun car. That's what it's all about.

i will be there saturday. i am having a bonfire / open house after the racing is over. bring your favorite adult beverages. the fridge will be stocked with soda

Thanks Mike. Sounds like a good place for a after party.

I sent an email and ask if it was okay to put up a canopy and the price to get in just to watch. This was his reply for whoever is interested.

Not. Crazy about the campos idea. 15$ entry

Thanks for the info. It just might help me decide if I am going up or not.........

I been on the fence and I guess most of you have too. I wasn't too sure about going and was hoping to get a big group to go out. I think I'm going to sit this one out. The weather will be cold and no one is sure what they are going to do. I'm wanting to go but I think I'll wait for the next one. Hopefully by then some of the guys will be more interested in going.

Spectators $10 a day or $15 for the weekend. I'm on the fence too.

That will still cost you $10!

'Less you stay there all weekend.

So $10 is a deal breaker for you? What would you expect it to cost for a day?

I'm a poor mofoger and I'm lucky I can afford beef jerky for dinner. I'm on the fence trying to pay for other shit and the daughter got hitched and that was a load that I had to deal with. The price is right for the event and I really want to go but as it stands I have no idea if I can make it. As a lot of people have said " family and fiends come first". Damn I'm one long winded som beech. Hope to to you all soon.

Just making a joke (apparently not a good one) about "puddin head" being "on the fence".....
don't see anybody saying the cost of admission would be a deal breaker because it was unreasonable.

The email I got back from them was the turning page for me. He never said 10 only the $15. While even 15 bucks is not a bad deal for that and well worth it but as Terry said some have other obligations. Even at 10 bucks for a family of 5 is $50.00. Toss in $30.00 for gas there and back and then lunch for 5 and I'm in it for almost $100.00. I'm not knocking anyone for going or not going just money to me is tight right now. I will be going but I can't make this one. Just have other irons in the fire. A new air compressor is on the list of have to haves since mine took a dump.
I'm not preaching just smiling and explaining.
