Prices here are way cheaper to rent a track and they are also VERY open about Tech. There was a small rotary event last year in Southern AL so maybe we could just move that one here and combine to make it big. With all Phil's contact's I bet we could get some decent prize money for all classes. But in the end its still a hell of a haul for you guys.

Bryson City was 800 miles. Steele is about 970 miles. It took me 12 hours doing about 80mph average for the last meet.

Trailering a car to Steele Alabama would be at least 15 hours or more. I'd love to make it but I may just fly down for next year!!! It does sound nice if he does make it a drag/show meet.

Unfortunately Edgar broke his foot during a zip-line accident on Sunday.. He has to stay of his feet for a few weeks, but is expected to make a full recovery.

Get well soon Edgar

Tommy already started the calendars.

You're allowed in here but you need one 1/4 mile mph run.
