Are the people at Temple going to be any nicer to us this year or at least get things running earlier?

The day after St. Patricks Day, common, you're killin' me. :beer Shouldn't matter though. Don't need to get there any earlier than 3 or 4:00 right!

Just kidding Phil. :laugh:

That’s it I have had enough of you! Jarrod is now assigned as:

The Complaint Department Manager for the Brand X Bash.

The job comes with no pay or benefits (Maybe BBQ but you have to Ask Frank Brooks nicely).

All complaints should be remedied in a timely manner "immediately"

In addition to your new responsibilities you are now given the additional title of: Track liaison to the track owner.

It is your job weather you choose to accept it to immediately address all problems with her!

Thanks for your help :eek2:

I wasn't going to say it, glad you did! :TU:

Can anyone say LIGHTNING?

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

[TXGS]

Not this Time. We are not even advertising that we are going to the track via the temple website, So we are going to have in a true sense a X Bash. the Track owner did appoligize about the lightning issue. :rant:

Frank I AM THE COOK Brooks

If it's not Scottish, it's crap!

[mrfido]

Sounds like a fun time. I will make plans for this. My 72 is getting a reworked rear end with 3.42s and a posi. Will be a major improvement over the open 2.56. :3gears:

I had to miss the Abilene Robert Burns dinner last night, and I'm still grumpy about it.

The year just won't be complete without hearing "Ode to a Haggis"

Not that I'm complaining at all - no sirree bob, I'll let Jarrod keep his new job...nope, not complaining at all...not me...

:laugh:

[jcamp116]

Better watch that tone, that kinda sounded like complaining to me.

OK, I can handle that title...do I get to bring my sidearm, and can I shoot at anybody who doesn't bow down low enough when a Buick is doing a burnout??? :Brow:

"You there! Behind the Dodge! That's not low enough - BamBamBamBamBam! :blast: "

[TXGS]

do I get to bring my sidearm, and can I shoot at anybody :eek2:

Ok, changed my mind..... James is no longer the body guard for Jarrod... Jarrod you are on your own Buddy....

However It is open season for lightnings I hear.... James Our unofficial "I am not involved by anymeans!" Lightning Hunter...

As for the late race well sorry guys thats the best I can do. But at least we have a scheduele to go by this time.

[jamyers]

OK, so I'll leave the .45 at home and bring an icechest full of water-balloons. (lightning...electricity...water...get it? I crack myself up!)

Seriously, Phil - no worries about the time - I'd be happy just to hang out and smell the burning rubber! :TU:

Is there going to be an award for RLC (runs like crap) this year?

This is an award specifically for the car and driver that have died in the middle of the track the most times. :Dou:

I have won the prestigious LLC (looks like crap) LSPBC award but would like to step up to the RLC category! :TU:

An Award for Dee. POJ (Piece of Junk award).... I have an old Carter 625 I could make into an award. But, The person who wins this award must assign it to the following years winner and must prominently and proudly display their award at all car shows/events for the following year or until the next Texas Buick event.... Award can not be recieved 2 years in a row.


Dee you are the first awardee of this fine piece of buick memorabilia :TU:

[70 Skylark Conv]

So is this Bash a real "shoot out" this time? Should I bring my 357? :blast:

Oh cool! For all of my hard work and effort (and embarrassment) I put into dying in the middle of the track at least 10 times, I need something to make me feel proud. :bglasses:

Also, reverse psychology says if I get an award for POJ, my car won't die next time on I'm the 1/4 mile track! :Dou:

Instead of being known as the GS girl, I'm starting to be called the girl that can't get her car down the track. :eek2: I'm getting a bad reputation. :ball:

[jamyers]

Hey, hey, hey - I don't check in for a coupla days, and what's all this talk about me being loaded?!?!? I represent them there remarks...note the time of this post, and guess where I've been.

I've got several itty-bitty Holley 1909 1-bbl parts carbs I'll donate to the trophy committee.

You know James that would be better. Mount it to a piece of plywood add a small aircleaner paint the hole think gold Then I will bring the letter stamps to the track and we will stamp the first awardies name on the top of the air cleaner lid.... :grin:
