Like I said before on here and was pooh poohed - there is no substitute for bad air like a BLOWER

I think they will turn down the "wick" a little on the CJs for the sake of competition - avoid rule changes which will not favor the CJs and keep the class going - watch the MPHs

Whatever you do - do it with style as you and your pop always do

After all of this rant - I still wish we were there and yes we would run the FSS (?)

Work duties at the bank and college for Andy take priority this year

I think 9.0's will win . Butner car with race oil can run that and so can Holbrook and Skillman . Im going with Butner car for the win he has the most experince and is the best driver

Billy, I would give you the chance but these CJ's, Drag Paks and COPO's are a little rich for my blood (slang for suffering bank account). Considering you have a little experience, you might be considered the ringer of the bunch. Still two days until they go down track, you might find a taker.
