Jack, thanks for the info. Glad he made it. He was as busy as a one legged man in an *** kicking contest trying to finish it!!!

Thanks to the Hills, Jack and Ken for your updates and photos. I have been to Indy for Wed-Fri and took over 2000 pictures. Sportsman on Wed and Thursday were the best. Looking forward to you verbal and photographic updates this week-end.

Good morning members -In a few short hours some of our dreams will come true - the biggest will be hitting the asphalt here at Indy - a sacred place to some- a place with a ton of history to others and a place many of us can't wait to come to .

So you want to talk weather - let me tell you that even at this hour its sticky so by the time 8:30 hits it'll be no fun left in the air.The racer that sits on the leaderboard at the end of this afternoon will have earned it for sure .

Thanks to Chevrolet and the NHRA the COPO Camaros are all parked together and if thats the brand for you its a sight to see when they're out parked along their trailers .

Speaking of Chevrolet they hosted a dinner last evening for COPO owners and a nice evening it was - thanks go out to Sandor Pizsar and Roger Allen from Chevy .

And on with the show as they say ...........back a little later with the dirt ! ! !

Any Chance for a photo of the MPR Copo?

Ken Miele · 08-28-2013, 07:37 AM

Good morning all, like Jack said its already warm and sticky. Here are some current numbers.

Temp 77
Humid 68%
Bar 29.04
DA 3074
Slight cross wind

How about the this two restored car haulers, how cool !. I could not resist, I was in Dan Fletcher's motorhome, spotted his five wins from his western swing this year, I would be happy with just one.

be back later....

Jack, At least you could have given Billy a COPO hat and nobody would have noticed him there at the Chevy get together. Thanks to you Patsy and Ken for all the posts. Hopefully see you on the top of the leader board.
