Live from Reynolds,GA-NHRA LucasOil Series
 
Well almost live as I'm not there yet but finally on my way .As I sit in the Newark Airport I've realized that in a few short hours I'll be doing the test n tune and I can't wait .Many of my D2 friends have told me that Reynolds is a very racer friendly place and even with some rain on the way it will be a nice event for everyone attending .

On another note - this will be the first time since sometime in the seventies that I've missed the PA Dutch Classic -- sure wish I could do both ! ! !

They just called for boarding.............later .

It is a racer friendly place. We'll head out tonight, after work, we just can't get away before then, so no test and tune for us. We'll see you there, look for the 2 69 Camaros at one trailer in Stock.

Hey Jack,
We almost went to Reynolds, too, so we could have posted together. But the rain kept us away. We decided to go to the open in Kansas City instead. We aren't in the running for points like you are, so we decided to go where the weather looked better and just have a good time. I see where you are entered for Pomona also. I guess you will be going to the Las Vegas points race, too.
We wish you luck at all of those places.
Reynolds is a very friendly place to go. We went last year and had a great time.

I will be posting more later from Kansas City after we get on the road a little later today.

Jack, Only had one adult beverage last evening and I am sure they were talking a storm in the plains moving into Northwestern Kansas today and Nebraska. Weather .com confirms this prediction. Good Luck in Reynolds.

I'm not much of a drinking man but after that plane ride I could really use a stiff one -- maybe even two ! ! Cruising altitude was a mere 3,000 feet (no,there's not a zero missing)--we were so low that I never lost phone or Internet service .

I hurried up getting to the track only to find out that my car hasn't arrived yet-traffic was bad around D.C. last night and put everything behind . At the track its a sunny day with the temps in the low sixties -test n tune was supposed to start but nothings going down the track yet today -- not sure why but it is the deep South you know . At least they are doing tech ............Got to bum around awhile and visit folks -- great day for that............later .

OK, Jack. What does "but it is the deep South you know" supposed to mean? Don't make me have to come up there and show you what "southern hospitality" really means when it comes to you "yankees"! Have you ever seen the sign at the Florida/Georgia state line that says "Welcome to Florida! Now go home!" Jim

BTW Thanks for keeping us updated on what is going on there. Jim

Re: Live from Reynolds,GA-NHRA LucasOil Series
 
Jim -- My comments were not about your "Southern Hospitality" but more about our "Yankee" get it done now thoughts -- we're in much more of a hurry than folks in "Deep South" are ........Jim, I can see the hair on the back of your neck standing up from here --- ya gotta know that I'm not looking to revive the war ! ! ! !

BTW --You're welcome .
