Hell yes, I'll be there. I have the responsibility of being G'pa to Aero Amo. There are still a lot of things to eat, things to see and things to do with a kid his age. There are some things we have to get out of his system so when race days come for him in 6 or 7 years, he will be ready to settle down.

This will be trip 112 for me since 1963. Why would I miss now?

Nancy and I will be there, if for no other reason than we've got all this food for Salt Talks.  If we didn't go -- we wouldn't have to grocery shop for months.

We'll have 0 - 1 - 2 bikes (pick a number, we'll see what's ready).  The big hope is that Nancy's 250 turbo will be running well enough to get some data, better still if it can make it down the course a couple of times, better still if it keeps all the parts inside and moving around like they oughta, more better if it gets into impound a couple of times.  The goal is still out there -- put it in a streamliner bike and go 200 with 15 cubic inches.  Stay tuned for a couple of years.

My bike?  Unh, the cylinders were to leave the plating shop late last week.  What?  Less than two weeks before we leave?  Uh-oh, this is gonna be close.

We'll see you all on the Salt.

If there's food involved you can bet I'll be there!
 A rented minivan and a sleeping bag at the Bend of the road. I'm a first timer so I'll probably be wandering around dazed and confused.... :roll:

We will be there with the Stude, looking for the red hat. The 1950 Buick straight eight with 4-71 blower is also coming with 2 rookies driving. We are going to have some fun...

We'll be there with both cars. Danny Boy in B/FS and Danny Boy Too in F/FL. Both cars fired this weekend, only things left are to align wheels,check toe etc. and put the bodies on. We have a new support trailer that some might find interesting. Come by and check it out.

Only 2 hrs away,I wouldn't miss my salt fix! Once again I'll be a course steward somewhere along the way to help Glen & Bob keep eyes on you.
 Yes when Glen cracks the whip at 6:45A,you'd better be in position. LOL
Be safe,go fast,have fun ya'all!! :lol:

We will be there with 811 on 100%. Fresh engine, clutch and a new
rear end, (old one got smoked on the record run in July).
We are also trying to get our new street roadster done in time to race.
811 will be running in C/FR on a W&W 257+ record.
The new street roadster will be runnjng in D/BSTR on a 203 record.
 And Dynoroom, your new car looks bitchen, see you on the salt :wink:
