Who's Going to Epping?

[SSTCamaro]

With nothing happening on the NHRA side of the house next weekend, who's heading to Epping for the IHRA Nationals?

Count me in, I have not been to Epping in a few years since NHRA stepped on the schedule with Etown, looking forward to it Pete.

Gary

PS Lynn, give me call when u get a chance

.........and were looking forward to seeing you Gary

I have not been to Epping yet, and I really wanted to go this year since the company I now work for is based in Boston, but unfortunately the inside of my car currently looks like this:



So, its still going to be a while before I'm out. I'm still hopeful to be out before the end of the year, but that hope is growing dimmer and dimmer by the day.

Anyway, good luck to all of you, and more importantly, have fun!

I know, I know...pretty lame, huh? But, that's all I got to offer at the moment (well, I do have more pictures, but I wasn't going to bore everyone with all of those...it's bad enough I bore all of you to death with my posts).

Regardless, this is definitely not what I had in mind at the beginning of the racing season (i.e. lots of money spent with not a single pass down the track). I guess on the plus side all of my stuff will be brand new for next year...

I'm sure it will be nice when you get it done.....good luck....

P.S. I still can't figure out how Asta landed such a nice looking woman.....

Ha ha...yeah, if I spent a little less time typing and a little more time working on my car, it might be finished, right? In this case though, I'm at the mercy of the chassis shop. It's actually coming along well, and they've done a pretty good job of keeping the project moving (of course, so have I by feeding them $$$). Theoretically, they should be starting on the tin work this week. I don't know how long it's going to take them to do it, but there's a LOT of tin work to do. Once that's done the chassis has to be painted, and the tin anodized (anything that isn't already going to be anodized black), and then I have to wire the whole car (that's where less typing and more working will come in handy).

If everything goes well (and I don't run out of money), I could possibly be at the Columbus Sportsnationals, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't skeptical about making that. I'm not giving up hope yet though...

I'm guessing it must be his charm and good looks....

I haven't met her in person, but she seems like she has a good head on her shoulders too. Brains and beauty??? I'm guessing she's using Asta for his money (I wish I could say my wife was doing the same thing to me!)
