  • Starting Line Party

    OK guys and gals, I've set up the starting line party. We'll be at the No Problem Raceway, 6470 Hwy 996, Belle Rose, La 70341. It's about 35 minutes from the venue in Gonzales. This is the deal $20 / person to eat and spectate, $40 for driver to eat and make passes. We'll start at 6:00 PM on Saturday June the 11th. Hope to see everyone there.

            If you wait, all that happens is that you get older

              Yeah... I already broke mine last year... but I don't have to run it hard. Do they have a stock slow car class? Like something with 4 cylinder mini vans? I might be able to take an 80's Town and Country.

                Will we need helmets Dave? Anything else we need to run?

                  Yeah, that's a great question. Will we have to pass a tech inspection? Or are we "renting" the facility and can do whatever we want?

                  It was all stupid stuff, like add battery cable covers, but I had to do a bunch of little things to be able to run my C10 at a small local track.

                    If your ride is faster than 13 seconds for the quarter mile, yes helmets are required.

                        I'll try to fit it in, neither my co-pilot or myself have been to New Orleans so I am thinking we are going to shoot down there.

                          It's awesome. Jena and I made a side trip after the gulfport stop last year.

                          That won't be a problem...

                              Well, the 3.25 rear gear (from a 2.8) was a nice addition, but she's still no track car... still a stock 2V 289... Maybe mid 17's in the quarter!
