On the Road with the Over the Hill Ohio Gang, Chapter 3, XXX
 

Hey we have made it to Belle rose, it stormed real bad last night but pits took it very well. Only about a dozen rigs here. The bar will open on Weds. We have a few days to mess around and take it easy, i'll get stats done and do some farming and online drag racing while sitting here. Here is some pictures we took coming from gainesville to here. We will be here for 2 weeks as we are here for the 10K SS/Stock event the following weekend also.
I'll post more later when pits start getting alive.

Re: On the Road with the Over the Hill Ohio Gang, Chapter 3,
 

hey gang we didnt have a bad weekend but it wasnt the best here at Belle rose, Rich won class and went 3 rounds in CIC race but went red in rd 1 of SS with a -003, but did run on dial. I also helped Dave & DeDe Layer dialing their car in we won the Strange award in rd2 with 10.020 on a 10.02, i knew it would run the same in rd 3 but was being chased so i had him dial a 10.01 it ran a 10.020 again, Dave went to the semi's where it got dark and you cant use blinders and he went -.009 red. Great weekend for the Layers for sure. We are all staying all week and running the Southland Performance SS/Stk 10k combo next Saturday. Work on my tan this week, lol
