    It's starting to look like you flatlanders are "SKEEERD" :jd:

    Really, you sound like you need a day of playing to set your mind straight. :beer

    Hope you can break away, 'cause we're gonna have fun, regardless of the racing!! :3gears:

    Fridays' comin'!!!!! I can't wait till this weekend. Just one problem, I have a leak coming from the rear of the oil pan. :Dou: I have to get it fixed before Friday!!! If not I'll either have to sit this race out, or I'll drive my car 500 miles round trip with a drippy oil pan. :Do No: I really hope it's not a rear main. Got my fingers crossed. Kevin

    Yeaaaaaaaaaa where is the bowling smilie ? We are gonna have us a prerace, friday night slugfest at the bowling alley there in town. ''Maybe'' if yall are good we'll come up with a prize for the bowling king after fridays competition. :beer :beer . I have called my buddy and warned him that we are coming in around 7:30-8:00 friday evening. So pack your balls up( :eek2: ) and come throw a couple lines with us. Gonna be fun.

    As far as my car.......some of yall know but some don't. After ''big bang #2'' earlier this year, I am going hardcore now. Rock stock 455'' so LOOK OUT :Brow: . But who cares, its all for fun right ? With a little luck the thing will start in the next couple days. We'll see how it goes. If someone could arrange for a couple hours of free time for me I would appreciate it a bunch.

    See yall in a couple days...............


    Later.....................


    ps- Hey Gibson, J.C. said he would be here Sat. morning so as to oversee your work :Smarty: , just to make sure we do everything correct, :rolleyes: .

    Hey man welcome aboard. You say your in Ks., where bouts are ya ? We have a nice little ''click'' here that run together most of the time. We'll have to meet up and get you in on the ''tour''.

    In regards to Atwood , yea the intent is to have this be a yearly deal. The town has what they call a ''Fall Frolic''. This race deal is part of the program. They have a nice list of things that are going on all day. Its fun, and I think all that attended last year can agree to that.

    Feel free to drop me a line anytime if you have any questions about racing around Ks. I will sure help if I can.............

    Later....................... :TU:

    ps- if you want to, you might give us at least a first name so we know who we're talking too. We're a friendly group here :beer :3gears:

    Hope yall got rooms.........

    I hope everyone here that is planning on attending got in on the room deal. I know John C. called yesterday and as of about 4 pm they are ALL GONE. :Brow: . From what I can tell we will be the biggest group there as it sounds like ''most'' of the regulars from Ks. and Colo. are gonna be there. Along with King and Messinger representing the ''bugeaters''. One of the days we need to get the Schmelzers(sp), P.D., and Todd down here too for this. Can't imagine yall wouldn't have some fun too.

    Personally I just hope someone, anyone, else from Ks. gets to show up. Its looking like I am gonna be the lone flatlander there and taking the abuse for/from everyone :error: . I ain't ''SKEERT'' ........lets have some fun.

    If anyone else is coming and needs room let me know(or give me a call if you have my numbers). I have a couple ''plans'' in action for just such a case. Better get to work on the car sometime I guess. Considering it still hasn't fired up with this motor........................ :3gears:


    Later........................

    Hi Guys,

    We canceled Vegas due to Michael's job situation. Just can't see spending that much money right now. Not to mention what would go in the slot machines. His last day of work will be October 29th and the company who won the contract still hasn't said for sure if they are going to hire the NCR guys. It would make sense as its the same accounts, the guys have a relationship with them and the new company doesn't have people here. Or is that too logical?! Atwood is closer and considerably less costly so as of this very instant, we plan to see you Saturday!

    Hey John C - did you get my message today? You didn't call back.

    Jim,

    Did you use every smilie on that one man ???? As far as working on the silver car, If it dont run shortly we may not have too. Had to order stuff today in fact. If it aint a thrash it ain't racing. Grub, we'll figure something out I'm sure.

    Later...................

    ps, LOVE the NOS line in your sig
