LOL that's funny Phil.

Guys I'm very sorry to say that I will not be able to make the event. I started a new job (after being layed off of my previous job that I'd had for 11 years.) and I am not going to be abl to take off that Friday to get there.

I hate not making this as I was so pumped about putting my car on the track.

Maybe next year.

Hey Fred,

Steele, AL is about an hour or so (+/- 15 mins) from 280/I-459. If you want, you could caravan with us to the drag strip.

Since it starts @ 9:30AM on Saturday, I say we meet at Trussville Mazda around 8:15 and leave around 8:30-8:45. As of now, David Garfinkle and Jeremy (PureMdMa) will be staying with me and will caravan with us.

It will take about 30-45 mins to get there from Trussville.

I would think Talladega is closer to you, but Steele will be more of a social gathering than TGPrix if I had to guess.

If I show up by 12:30 can I still run? Is there going to be a class? Do I need to pre sign up for the drag race? Or is it just show up pay $15 and run all you want. ??

If you go by how Steele usually works its pretty much run as much as you want in order of how many people are running. So I would guess you could get there at any time we are all running and then join in the line. But Jeremy and the guys may have a more structured way of doing things for this event.

OH and Pray for no rain tomorrow even as much as we need it otherwise.

Jeremy (puremdma), I was watching the news today and they said it should clear out by late morning tomorrow.. So, hopefully we'll at least get some dry road later on the day...

Please do! People can just show up at Talladega if they want, or you can call my cell phone. We are leaving for the hotel in about 3 hours. So, if anyone needs to call me during the event, my cell phone number is on our website at www.speedforsale.com/events.php (please ONLY use this number this weekend, thanks!)
