The WOS speed is coming up fast, who is going ? who is ready to go ? My car AA\CGALT is almost ready just a little more work on the rollbar to conform to the new rule changes. Record is 246.011 in the class. I hope we have some good air. See you all there. Gary

If in doubt, it probably IS a mistake.

Just not going to happen - the seven-month gestation for my crank has me scrambling just to get the engine together in time for testing before the drag strip closes down.
So like the true-blue Cubs fan that I am, I say, again, with a note of resignation in my voice, and through clenched teeth -
Wait'll nextyear!
Wishing great success and awesome weather to those who race next month. WOS rocks.

Dan, have Mike M. send me the artwork for the engraved White Goose wine glasses, please. I asked him for it at SpeedWeek and still haven't got it. I'll ask if you'll PM me his address.
As for who's ready with what -- we intend to be there ready to race not only the ZX15S, but also the Ninjette 250T. And this time we'll have most of the stuff we forgot to take for SpeedWeek. I hope we will. . .
And we'll be doing another Salt Talks at WoS, don't forget. Hamburgers, hot dogs, grilled chicken breasts, and lots of other foodstuffs and for sure a bunch of prizes for the raffle/drawing. It'll be Wednesday evening around 5.30 - 7PM. See you there -- on the salt for racing and at the Bend in the Road for Salt Talks.

RustBucket Roller aka Lucky Bones is ready, but i ain't so sure I am... I've done a bunch of asphalt events but have never been on the salt. A lil bit aprehensive about the whole thing, being an old dog, them ole "new tricks" are daunting.  |

Old, ha, Karl, you are just a baby.I was older than you when I made my first 200mph run on the salt. You know what our mentor says, old age and treachery will overcome youth and enthusiasm every time. |
