I'll be there, I am not on the list and WhiteKnuckles is not on the list, it is a little behind. There will more than 15 Marauders racing. Landmark Dodge will be bringing their Dodge to the race...I understand that it has already run a sub 11 second pass.

We do need volunteers for several areas in you are coming but not racing.

Great Rich, glad you are going. John Nero and I are working on meeting on Friday morning, Nov 7th at the exit just after The Turnpike & I-75 around 9 am. Maybe you and Dennis can meet up with us to caravan up. Both John and I are trailering our cars, so we will be taking it easy at the speed limit.

I also need someone to use my video camera for some runs. I have an in-car mount I am going to use as well.

Tom, sounds like a plan. Need to know Exit # and location and I am in.

Rich, can you see me now? I think I am as invisble as a bad smell but haven't had the acid test, yet. Ga. will be a good trial. Dennis

I have a stop to make in St. Augustine. I have your cell, so I'll keep in touch!

I bet Jamie wouldn't mind helping out with the camera stuff. After all, she DID film the 'Lucky-13' at New Smyrna! Perhaps if we use our camera, you might have BOTH perspectives on your runs!

Sounds good Rich. Great idea for the runs. Then we can do a split screen effect, in and out of the car. I really need to get some good footage on drag racing.

I was thinking cut back and forth from in-car to out-of-car so we could enjoy the run for TWICE AS LONG when we play it back!!!!!

I'll call you guys when I leave St Augustine.

Hey Guys, I have been at the Silver Dollar track here in Reynolds, GA the last two days watching the SSHS8 Big Dog contender Speedfactory/Injected Engineering Charger T&T, meanwhile, breaking the LX platform World Record last night, and then again today, SMASHING the record big time! Better put your A game on! Here is the video from last night.

We just might be up a little late for a 6AMer, Tom. You might want to shoot for 7.:beer: ? Looks like the overnight low Friday night is 39, the track, as you may remember; is like a hockey rink till the temp gets up and the sun goes to work on it. As I recall, sideways at 105mph surrounded by concrete walls is not a lot of fun, causes a very severe puckering and perhaps extra laundry time. We are meeting Friday Morning, as in tomorrow and will see you and Cheese, I hope for a pop and dinner Friday evening. does anyone think this might be fun? :banana2:Dennis:burnout:

I was asked to post this by one of our Mopar friends. This is regarding the VP fuel station at the track.

Hey Mike,

Can you post this on the sites you've been promoting this on? I emailed the VP guy, and this was his response:

I will be there then. If you can spead the word, tell the people we have 15 different kinds of VP Racing Fuel (sold by the gallon or per 55 gallon drum) including methanol onsite. As well as upper lube, fuel jugs, jug parts, VP shirts, and more.

Credit Cards accepted

Fuel available by the gallon:
Unleaded 93, 101

I will not be able to make Friday nite TNT. It looks like I will have to work the DC late tomorrow night. I do plan on arriving Saturday about 9:30 AM with my pit crew (my son Chris). I will take dancing tickets at 10:00 am for a small fee. Dom (if he arrives) is first for my $50 trip offer, then all Marks to the front of the line (blowers first), then TS, then R/Ts, then the slower SRT8s. See ya all there..........
