Jack, it is not you missing something but me.  We are working on an updated list and will have it ready to post here in a couple of
days.

I betcha I know, Monte.  To attach a pdf file to the forum you need to be standing, balancing on your left leg only, while in a 15-25 mph headwind from the northeast.  A good rainfall at the time of posting is good, too, and if you had asparagus on your cereal this morning - it should work just dandy.

Unh - if that doesn't work you could send it to me and I'll see if I can remember how to attach it.  Or maybe one of the folks on this here Forum will show me up and ask permission for himself to attach it.  Permission granted.

Jon, it looks like it did attach.  It just did not show up in the reply window as I was trying to get it to go through.

Sum, Thanks for doing that.  Makes it much easier to view.
We are in the middle of a heavy rain storm right now.  The snow level was down to 8000 ft.  I will try to get a salt update as soon
as possible.

Wow-o-man, it's going to be quite an event, isn't it?  Even though it's a short track, and even though no records will be set (well, yes there will be - the fastest for that particular vehicle on the sort track at the T&T), it's still going to be one heck of a show.  I sure hope the rest of you that are anywhere nearby can attend and tell me and us what's going on.  I know that Pork Pie plans to be there -- but Nancy and I just can't see our way to heading out here.  if we had more money and fewer responsibilities, maybe, but since that ain't the case -- well, everyone, keep in touch with us and I'll put whatever you send tome on the Forum and website.

Man, what a show it's going to be.  I guess the only saving grace for me is that I won't have to be downwind from Tom Liberatore's olives and pepperoni. :evil:

No problem and Ruth and I are planning on being there with Sparky.  Don't send any of that snow down here, but we sure could use the rain.

Also if someone wants to see the lists yet larger than above click on the next two links....

Sum, I'm looking forward to seeing the two of you.

I don't think I will post from the salt but I will every evening.

Thanks for posting Monte!  Can't wait to see everyone!  Looking forward to having a nice salty sunburn and being buried up to my elbows in grease again!  Great move by the USFRA for putting this on!  Super excited!

Glen, you are correct! Wayno has actually had to withdraw his entry as he has had some things come up that will prevent him
from participating.  No slight intended to Wayne.  The intake and fuel injection system he is building is top notch.

I kinda wondered if Wayno had finally seen the light and made at least part of the switch - claiming that his tanker was modified partial streamliner and runs gas.  I now it's got pushrods. . .  If you're coming on over to join the fun, Wayne -- welcome. :cheers: :cheers:  And if you're not changing -- well, oh, well. :?
