Are April registration forms available yet. I looked at the ECTA website
and could not see it.  I know that we can't register yet, but I would
like to print the form as a reminder.

Still proceding with the modifications on my truck, the heart cath a few weeks ago went ok then about a month ago I developed pneumonia for over four weeks. I jumped through hoops for my family Doc, my Cardiologist and my Resporatory Doc and my Wife to avoid going to the hospitol then last Tuesday afternoon I had an episode where I couldn't speak that anyone could understand, mouth and eye drooped on my pasenger side and I had weakness in my legs. I took a two hour ride in the MRI spaceship Thursday am but the results will not be back until mid week. It was either another stroke or a strong TIA which is a warning. I am planning on next April to be my fairwell race, wanted to see all the friends I have made the last two years. My goal if the wind will cooperate on my last pass is to get the 5830 lb. aerodynamic brick up tp 140 mph.
Don't worry guys I can tell when I don't need to drive and I am going to set David, my crew chief up to drive if I didn't feel as if I should. I am not going to crash and hold up the show, and I can't wait to get there and look down that two miles from the starting line and wait for Al to wave me off.

Garrell,
 We are all hoping that your health continues to improve
and that you are able to pilot your own truck at the Ohio Mile.
Best Holiday wishes from your LandSpeed Friends.

Hey guys I am new here and am going to try to run my bike in Ohio this year. If I read things correct the April meet is only for cars correct?

Also would like to get a leg up on safety rules so I can start working on the bike since I am taking the head off anyway. is there a link on the forum that has a rule breakdown sheet?

Thanks for your help

It's best to come down and check out at least one meet to get a feel for whats going on and how things work and to chat up a few folks in your area of interest before you compete.

Thnaks Joe I will look intt getting registered and a number also. I thought I would have to wait until January to get the info which is what I was trying to avoid. Getting some shoulder surgery done sometime in Januray and wanted to get some done before I am in pain and laid up a bit. I wanted to run in April as my bike likes cooler air.

Thanks for your input. I have been following the LSR races for a while and figured it was time to quit procrastinating and do something.

Besides I figure it was a whole lot safer then running them speeds on the country roads up here where I have been testing the bike.
Either way I want to be there in April.

The only one I know of is The Wilmington Inn but they're already booked.  You might call around - there's a list on the ECTA website.
