George, there are quite a few Denver LSR participants.  The first American hot rod to go over 200 is in Denver.  NRHS Sales is there, as is Speedlimit 1000.  I expect it will take Jon Amo a week or so to reply to a PM, he is a little busy with the new liner, the new baby, college and a full time job.

Huge fan of LSR.  I have 3 Studebakers.  I have been observing them in competition for years and hope to go fast in one of them someday.

 Hi everyone,    lurked here way too long enough and finally wading in from the shallow end.  I`m Bill Ross from Escondido Ca and have been running a 1000cc very green Moto Guzzi pushrod motorcycle at El Mirage and at the World of Speed for the last two seasons.  Hopelessly addicted to LSR and have really enjoyed the comraderie of this sport. I really appreciate all the time that Jon and most of you have put into this forum and especially his live race day coverage of past and future events. I`ve learned alot here and have been very impressed with the depth of knowledge and experience shared here by the members.   Looking forward to the future of our sport and meeting more of you on the lakebed and or on the salt.      Thanks,  Bill     www.teamsubtlecrowbar.pitpilot.com

Bill, I don't remember you by name, but the team name "Team Subtle Crowbar" sure sticks out in my mind.  Thanks for registering on the Forum.  We look forward to hearing more from you (easy to do -- since anything is more than zero).  As for meeting some of us on the Salt -- don't miss Salt Talks, this year on Sunday the 15rd of August at the Bend in the Road.  You'll meet many of us there.

Welcome to the Forum.

Welcome Bill, good to have you. I think we were neighbors in impound at WOS. A great place to meet people.

Good, Stan -- someone noticed.  I often will farkle with the suffix for the date -- i.e. the 2st, or the 27nd,etc.  Thanks for making my efforts worthwhile.

9-5 Monday through Friday -- doesn't include today, does it?  I spent time clearing snow from around our mailbox and that of a neighbor about a quarter mile down the road (our nearest), then put new lamps in the tanning bed.  Just now I vacuumed the floors.  Whew, I'm bushed -- and my entertainment does include farkling with the suffix for the dates.

 Thanks for the invite Jon, I`d be there if I could,  had no luck securing a few SW rooms during the online casino fiasco... so it`s a return to the WOS this year. Maybe next year !
    Thanks Fred,  I enjoyed meeting you in impound  at the WOS last year, hope too see you there again this year  :wink:

G’day  5154Guzzi,
Very sweet ride you’ve got there.

Best of luck for the 2010 season, hope the web site news remains free of injury stories.
