Speedworld lists a "club day" Sunday 1/30/05
Any interest in entering a Buick club?
We could all get together and run.

[Buick Power]

If you can get a hold of Nick Micale, he is usually involved with getting the Buick guys together in PHX. He is a GN guy, but there are only a few V8 guys that come out of the wood work. You can mention it to Mike T. @ TA Performance and he and his friends like Tom Spresser and Al Stimler might be interested. Then there is Chris Carson, Randy Hollister and Mike Modena. There is a hand full of other guys but I don't know all their names.

I can come out but I would have to race my Camaro or GTO.

Dave,
Are you still at TA? Or is that a different Dave?

[Buick Power]

Same Dave, but I'm not with TA any longer.

Howdy, How far is the track from Las Vegas?

Howdy, How far is the track from Las Vegas?
265 miles

[Buick Power]

Hey bill, there is a lot of open fields and even an old Motocross track out there, so may be you could show Buick Power in a different way!

FYI - Bill has a Stage 2 455 with N2O (right?), Home Made rock crawler!!!!!

Dave

[mltdwn12]

Hmmm, I might go out to watch and shoot some pictures and video, especially if some Buicks show up :)

Craig

[yldkat55]

I plan on attending, anyone else in?

[70gsrick]

I'm in...I'll need three tanks of gas to get there but I'm in. :laugh:

Anyone on the south side have a trailer I can rent?

[MandMautomotive]

1/30/05 is a club day race. I thought if we could get some Buick guys together we could race as a group. Not much interest in 1/30/05 here. 4/3/05 is a must. They might even have racing on 4/2/05 PM with over night camping/storage.

I can get there, run my car and get home in one tank. About 120 miles round trip and two miles of racing. If we can get a few Buicks to be a "group" lets do 1/30/05

[kwanderi]

I might be interested in hooking up with you guys. I believe SpeedWorld is out on the west side too.

Keith

[MandMautomotive]

Okay, 1/30 is close. Let's see a show of hands. Rick, You had a link to the local racers?

JP

[70gsrick]

I'm in,

I have Nick's E-mail ArizonaGN@Earthlink.net. He's a real nice guy. I got a couple of GS hoods off of him. He lives pretty close to your shop. I think he's off of Greenway and I-17 if I remember right. He may even be on this board, not sure. I'll rent a trailer or God forbid I might drive up there. :eek2:

[70gsrick]

BTW...is it ever gonna stop raining here? I'm thinking of building an Ark!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My entire back yard is flooded!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MandMautomotive]

Well it quit raining!
I left a message at speed world and sent Nick an email. I will post what I find out.
A trailer is nice to have, but it really is not a bad drive if you take the 303
across from the ten.

[chaz]

i want to go, have to watch though, trans is still broke. have to check my work schedule. chaz :TU:

[70gsrick]

Where would I catch the 303?

Here is a link to a map.
I got an email from Nick. The "Arizona Performance Buicks" club is already registered. So any Buicks that show up can just say you are with them.
Hopefully it will be a nice day. Racing starts at 9:00am. :TU:

[chaz]

anyone know how much it will cost to get into this event. :puzzled: i cannot find any info from speedworlds site, and how will i be able to recognize you guys. chaz

[70gsrick]

I'm not sure of the cost but I wouldn't think it would be much more than $20 bucks. But watch me be wrong, it's happening alot lately :Dou: .
It should be easy to find us as the lot is pretty small but we will undoubtedly be huddled around the GS's!! :Brow:

But just in case here's a picture... :laugh:

[70gsrick]

I couldn't help myself!!!!!!!!!!!! :laugh: :TU:

[Buick Power]

Racing is $20, spectating is less between $10-15.

Dave

[chaz]

thankyou gentlemen. chaz :laugh:

[yldkat55]

You going with us, Dave?

[70gsrick]

Dave,
Do you ever race your Riv?

[austingta]

But just in case here's a picture... :laugh:

What happened to that airplane to make you have to jump out? Did the motor quit? Prolly a F**D. They break down a lot.

Hey... wait a minute! You didn't jump out of a perfectly good airplane, did you?

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
