Well, I'll be out there with SOMETHING but I don't know if it will be a U car or if it will even be driving the rear wheels. I guess that I could bring the 1K car but that would be like bringing a bag of marshmellows to a gunfight. And then there's that whole "integrity" thing. I wouldn't want to go destroying the "integrity" of Stock Eliminator now would I? Of course I could just title and tag it and drive it out there because, ya know, it is a real car with a real VIN but that's another type of "integrity" now, isn't it?

This is an independent event. Bags of marshmallows are required (those toasted coconut ones would be AWESOME!), and any gunfights will be solely administered by Grand Marshall Denysenko. Anyone displaying integrity will be flogged.

And if you can get the line lock to work on the Turismo, that would be great! I've had trouble wearing out the tires.

Remember, following Lucas Oil Class Eliminations, there will also be a Junior Stock Shootout, sponsored by Hammerhead and the Buckeye S/SS Series. No additional entry fee, open to any car in K/S (K/SA) or slower classes. (includes D/PS-slower, S/GTF-slower, and FWD cars)

Jack, Don't let Billy give you the run around here.
He's got what's probably the second or third best combo for U/SA waiting in the wings..

He just needs some encouragement from us..
C'mon Billy...NO AHFS!

There is going to be more than one surprise in U/SA.
It will be very interesting!

Robert Swartz · 01-18-2014, 12:00 PM

Bad thing is, it's gonna take 12's to be a player. My car (if it's ready and done by then) won't be there, yet. Timing will be the issue with our car. Do we have to pre-enter or can we pay at the gate? If we show, somebody is probably guaranteed a 1st rd win in class, imagine we'll be the slowest car there.

Tod made a comment to me the other nite though. If all these Fords show up. Shaw's Caddy made an appearance. Jack's Wagon, Billy's 1K car. Add a PU or two, plus whatever other combinations show. U/SA eliminator will look like a "Buy Here, Pay Here" car lot! On top of that could be the class with the most entries. Be like running class was 35-40 some years ago.

Maybe I spoke out of turn. Have all the trucks been factored out? Still ought to be an interesting mix of cars.
