Chicago area pure stockers, to the strip

no not Diamonds or Admiral Theatre, as fun as that would be :Brow: , I'm talking about heading to US41 in Morocco, Indiana for some test and tune fun on Sunday Oct 25. The track is open from noon to 5pm. If anyone wants to join the small group I've talked to, come on out. The more the merrier. :beers2:

Morocco is a great little track. Super nice people, 1/4 mile strip and I always get tons of runs in. I'm constructing a new building right now and am pretty tied up with that. Otherwise I'd be there in a heart beat :TU: Hold that thought for next spring and I'll make it then with the little Chevy II.

I just ran there last Sunday. Enjoy some good 60 ft times :TU:

Jody

 

I might come up and maybee I can get Stan Palma to go also .Ive never raced there before and its not to far from Indy.

 

Depending on the weather, I'm a definite maybe.

 

Wow, thought about putting the car to bed for the winter. I guess their is a chance for one more run at it. We have a football game Saturday but Sunday the 25th might work. :3gears:

Eddie is planning on bringing out the Sc/rambler... I'll be there with my heap... Panczuk's are planning on attending with their '69 H/O... a couple other non-pure stockers as well.

rumor has it that Chris is even going to bring the W-31... apparently it has an aversion to daylight, so we'll see if it survives the long trip out of the garage. o No:

With our midwest weather patterns, worst case we shovel the track before we race...

 

Luke,
I was giving Chris heck about the W31 coming out it's slumber too Hope you guys have fun. If I get my stuff together my new family wagon (70 Cutlass flattop) will go down the strip at the local BOP race in Nov.

Lerum works down the street............

 

Steve,

Not even sure I want to know how you'd know that?:laugh:

Rich C.

 

I'm thinking heavily about this . You can tell cause there's smoke pouring out of my ears.ou:

It sounds like a winner to me,weather pending!

Have mercy on me with the HO Jody!

Rich C.

PS : Lerum, I ordered the exhaust bungs. You know what that means.

 

Yep,..........get her done and we'll rock and roll.

Jim

 

My son said if I'm real good he might let me bring the SC.ou: I love that kid.

Rich email me if your going. Bob

 

Jim.... You da man !!! I'll be in touch.Thanks! :beers2:



Bob .... I will do that. The more I'm looking at this,the more I like it. I'm really leaning this way now.:TU:


Chris and Luke... You've started a fire!:3gears:

Rich C.

 

Rich, I'm glad your not asking about BUNG HOLES (pun intended) because I would have to refer you back to Steve and Chris. I think their new race team is the "Pure Stock Pimps, where men hang with men" . LOL..................:kodak:

Jim

Sorry, I couldn't let that one go!:Brow: Chris is wondering,.....How did I get dragged into this one?????

 

yes, actually I am :grin:



If the weather is good, and we know it will be, this could turn into a mini Pure Stock-type event/shootout. US41 won't know what hit them

 

well, it'll go in an enclosed trailer. besides, I don't want the original paint (and rust) to fade :Smarty:

 

This is gonna be crazy. Just the way we like it. Maybe we should call 41 and get some dedicated lanes. :beers2:

 

jim Lerum;can we almost say the LS-6 chevelle SS may crack the 11's ,before the the end of the year?chris teed

 

Oh.....................I don't know,...........I gotta really 60 foot the thing to have a chance. I gotta look at the data,...uzzled: ....LOL..!!! I think the data says I would have to page "Jimmy Johnston the hired gun":eek2:.
