Cooter if you have time a really big sack of cash would be great!
Safe travels and it will be great to see y’all.

Hey guys, we are here at Bristol Motor Speedway in the stacking area, at the Thunder Valley Nationals. Its raining today, but the rest of the week looks great with temps in the mid to upper 70's and no rain in the forecast. Here is my first part of the trip as we roll into Bristol...

I love seeing the road trips. My only complaints are the sudden whip-arounds from out the windshield back inside to face you. It can be quite startling.

Parking starts at 800am, stacking is almost full. Almost 8% of the entry’s in stock are current or former world champs. It should be a fun race. Two run’s Friday and four round’s Saturday. Sunday semi’s and finals.

We all run the same road and attend a lot of the same races but when the Boss does his video it just makes it more exciting.

Parking went well for the first nine rigs. Number 10 inline, the taxi cab hauler, the driver of the rig was no where to be found. Joe Tysinger did a great job of backing up and threading the needle between two rigs to get out. We backed up to give him room to maneuver. Then we got the go a head to turn around and go inside.
The track look very nice all green and very hilly.

One of the best parts of racing is the exchange of ideas from other racers and engine builders. Suspension, tires, and track prep are usually at the top of the list.

Are you running stock or s/s ?

Larry Hill · 06-08-2023, 11:28 AM

Stock. We should qualify a little better than Chicago. Plus there are few cars in FS/D

Hey guys, part 2 rolling into Bristol. I will have a ride through the pits tomorrow along with photos from qualifying.
