    Well it looks like there will be two G-bodies not going this year . I have had zero time for my car in the last few months so of course the few days before the event I had planned to work on it in spare time to get a few things done before the drive, one important one was new lower rear control arms as the ones that I have had on the car the past few years were getting worn and I was warned by the GN guys that they are very hard on the frame...... Well a dream come true for me! Upon taking the right lower arm off I noticed that it ripped a weld off the frame that ties the front arm support to the top of the frame!!! I guess when the front wheel likes to come off the ground on a hard lauch something is going to pay the price, just very very bad timing for this to happen and Im pretty sick over it to top off a few very rough long weeks. I havent posted anything about the project car I picked up a few weeks ago but I bought a 97 GP GT a few weeks back to strip and build up so I have something to test with and to break parts with but it is not in any way ready for that long of drive and has a pretty tired engine and trans in it and I dont have the time to pull off a miracle to drop in something else to get me by. It looks like we are driving the Trailblazer down this year unless something magically happens in the next 24 hours. Ohh well, more beer storage space lol!

    thats what it was all about last year when i had to drive the impala. this year was all about having the GN down there. I could have had him rush the paint and had it in time, but decided ide be pissed in the long run

    hopefully the regal is a little more fun even tho i didnt get to do what ide like to in time to race it

    Looks like the track double booked events, so we aren't allowed to race on Friday.

    Anyone who plans on bringing their race gear, might as well leave it home this year.

    Way to go Nick! Mystie and I are technically FIRST here (three car convoy with us in the lead. Us, Kelly Hancock, and Nick and Kim). A couple pics in a few.

    BTW... just so everyone knows, The track screwed up the booking, so please don't hold this against Chris. Mystie saw they had something else booked on their site yesterday, she contacted Chris, and Chris immediately got in contact with the the track. Since the event they booked over us is a 3 day long big time event (more money), they apologized and bumped us. Just wanted to say that since I didn't want you all thinking Chris messed this up in anyway. They had already gave him their word and took his money, which from what I understand, they are refunding him.

    Got some pics uploaded.

    Driving up to a wall of rain, you can see it right in front of those two trucks. Nothing to downpour instantly.
