Ohio, June 2nd & 3rd who is going ? Updates
« on: May 16, 2012, 07:48:13 PM »
I am going and have rooms reserved again at the Wilmington Inn.

Working on a few tweaks to the Studebaker trying to get an extra 4.5mph.. Warmer and Dry would help too...

Safe travels to all headed to Ohio.

June is out, Amy's work and $$$ prevents this. We are aiming for July??. Hope you get that 5mph Charles. Got to get the air dam fab'ed and work on the master bathroom. that was the deal for building the new car. We had a blast at the first meet and we are trying for 140.00mph in july. Best to you Charles.

I'll be there with the Mighty Truck.  It'll be lowered and have a hard tonneau.  Hoping for 115 - maybe.

not going to make it this time, maybe a spectator in july, but will be there in sept, a little more power, a little more aggressive. going to the AHDRA race this weekend in atco nj, just 45min from the house, take some gear out of it and see if i can 3 gears out of her in the 1/4 mile...LOL

We will be there.  After the great time that we had in April, we are
looking forward to returning to the Ohio Mile.
For the first time we will be going to the Loring event in July. We enjoy spending time
with the great group of racers from NE.

Just an FYI if you were not satisfied with the food or drink on your first rip to Wilmington I can recommend a couple of places that you may not have found; the General Denver Hotel downtown Wilmington has a very good restuant/bar with a patio and live music on Sat.eve. also a bit out of the way is McD's Bub on Rt.22 south edge of Wilmington, go to the back room bar at McD's. Don't want anyone to go home hungry.  :cheers:
Oh, my car is entered in the June event, see you then.

Me and The Truck will be back.  Truck will be 3" lower in front, 4" lower in the back (almost done), and the tonneau is in place.  Let's see if aero helps the tugboat.

It hasn't been easy getting things done here with a very hectic work schedule.  Many days over 14 hours long and everyday has been Monday... :-D  Both bikes made noise this weekend and everything is looking good.  Just a once over, some wax and they will be complete.  See you all on Friday Morning. 

I have talked to James Hight and the turbo Susuki 650/750cc will be making an appearance there in June.  Looking forward to seeing that bike run there.
