Zack Millholland will be twisting the throttle on Greenie.  It's a PITA that my body is taking so long to repair itself, keeping me watching, not doing  Karl BTW: BillyS, BobS, Linda, Jessie, Helenita, Karl, BillW will be there also; we were planning Ohio & Loring & WOS last night.

Made a few small changes to Amy car and are planning on being there if the mogo keeps working. This will be the last race for this year as Amy's teaching schedule and school (She's working on her second Masters Degree) will eat up racing time. Hope to get her over 140 in july.  Frank

Thinking about going. Just got my new trans. Need to put it in. Lost 3/4th right off the lin in April. Maybe I'm in the record books for first breakdown on track at Willmington. Long tow home courtesy of Uhaul. Expensive weekend. Not use to that. Now I'm a little nervous. Might pospone Bonneville till next year. Would like to see everyone in July when I'm not freezing. Us F bodys need to stick together. Kerry

I'm in. Just booked at the Wilmington Inn. Couldn't get my usual room so had to settle for the one next door! Also pretty sure I have resolved my data logging issue.

Best of luck Maty guys! It'll be great to see the Time Bomb scorch the track again.
Me and the truck will be back and hopefully will make a significant improvement in speed as I finally do something about that speed limiter. When I get the Camaro back on the track the tow truck will likely be quicker than the race car!

The 974 Studebaker team is planning on being at the July Ohio Mile. Made a gear and tire change. May be just a little more, just maybe.

Hooley, I just did some aero calculations on you tater! Divide your car number by 4 and take off the local state sales tax 6.5% and I get 228.64! That ought to do it!!  This calculation will work for other machines, too! 4 is the k-factor - just adjust that to suit!  Maybe I should post this to a certain new aero forum??  Nahhhh!  See ya in July!

Woody I used the Studes year, divided by an adjusted K factor and then subtracted the sales tax and Hooly will run a 229.86. In theory, all else being equal, proper lucky draws being worn etc, etc, etc. Is this aero forum material too??
See ya in July!

I'm going to have to skip the July event. Going to force myself to get the car driveable this summer, and could use all the extra time I can get. Should be back in September though.
