Hey, I could get in on that plus size driver deal !

Hey Dwight, I see you are in Ark. We use to race a lot at Prescott. Are there any other tracks in Ark now ?

Do you recognize this old Ark track ? TJ took this pic in around '75 or '76, I think. Pretty cool, huh ? A mobile timing tower and a 5-amber tree.

That is the old Carlisle Drag-O-Way. I cut my teeth there. If the picture is from 75-76, odds are I was there. Before that, I worked with the crew that ran it. The mobile timing tower was a huge improvement over what was before that! Here's another pic:

Jeanie and I raced our old '56 Chevy Jr. Stocker there many times.

In the swamp, it is perfectly logical to wait on the starting line for the beer to be served. Ain't that the way it's done? Now a couple of bacon wrapped shrimp with that beer, or even better, a nice glass of white wine. That is real racing. And as many of you know, drinking a nice wine in a solo cup is simply not acceptable. I really worry about lots of you folks. Think Class, Cooth, and Culture.

You guys are funny!
You can be skinny too so long as you have a full size American Car.
And
It will not make you look fat!
