    Did the wizard ever get back to you about that brain?????

    Maybe so, but you would still need a hotel room in Norwalk, Indy and Byron.

    No one has been turned away from racing drag week. They sell out every year in the first 400 but a lot of people end up backing out or become no shows, same as the wait list. We will be going to drag week as well this year. Not racing but following the week and route to get an idea of how this all works. We have a few friends that have been quite successful the past few years at Drag Week. Our goal is to have a car and all the necessary back up parts needed to survive the week.

    That would be rough, plus I will have the wife with me. My girl don’t camp.

    I am taking my 69 Mustang, the one that I have had out at Roadkill Nights the last 2 years. It’s a big tire car, exhaust dumps at the rear axle and it has Kirkey seats so it should be a long, loud and miserable ride. I can’t wait!! Over the winter I plan on putting a Holley HP EFI set up on it, so drive ability should be really good.

    Right now, valve springs, lifters and rocker arms are the only thing I’m really worried about. The rest of my car is built really well. Valve springs seem to really take a beating.
