Turbo26t/Stan--you can drive anywhere but to the staging lanes, but there is parking AT the start line/staging lanes, pit area and even some room down at short shut down if you want some pictures there. Hope we do have a big crowd but there's lots of space.

There will again be a large group of Bluebird folks down on the return road at short shutoff to show you what has been announced by the tower as your speed on the chalkboard;



Please stop by and join us, we have a campfire every night that the weather permits, so that looks like Friday, Saturday and maybe Sunday if the track allows us to stay over night before we head for Myrtle Beach as a group. If you want to take a tour of the buses, just ask we like to show off our 'Birds as we call them.

Well it looks like the weather will be good.  Maybe a tailwind Sunday.  Beat of luck to all.  Fast and safe passes.  We hope to see you all in May.  The engine on the 6 is coming along after the failure.  The 10 should also be ready for May.  Post some speeds.  Wish we could be there.

Hi, my name is Christy Jeffers and I am coming to Maxton for my first time to spectate and get some rule clarifications, I was wondering if you can bring a golf cart or atv to cut down on some of the walking over the two days? I am already hooked and I haven't even been to an event.

Scott --

You're right -- shouting is all caps, yelling is bold face.

Today was a busy day, some work on the Stude this morning, then loading the car and gear in the trailer.

I had a nice 90 minute or so break this afternoon,,, Jon and Nancy stopped by my house/shops for nice break and tour.  We had a pleasurable visit,,, Both Jon and Nancy gave me some good insight into Bonneville and what to expect. We shared stories and just had a relaxing visit,,, they needed a break from driving and I needed a break for work !!!!

See you all around 12:00 to 1:00 tomorrow.

     I'm AWOL/over the hill this trip but the 260 is headed your way.  I gave 'em instructions on finding Mac's for the liver mush  :-D

Everybody

     Hope you all have a good meet and banquet, stay safe, have fun, and go fast.

     Hope to get back in the groove and be down in Oct.

                     Take care,

                     Ed
