Kenny,



What time does the racing start? I hope to make it, but can't say for sure until I know what time.



Later,

Chris

 

[Huff N Puff]

I'm hoping to be there!

I'll be working on my truck for the next two weeks. If everything goes OK,you can count me in. I'm hoping the best running truck in the metro- area ob1kobi will be there,Ted I hope I see you. Merv

 

[KennyM]

I'm hoping Jetpilot knows the time, I think at 08:00. I'll call the track later next week if we don't here from Doug.

 

[c-hawk]

Thanks,



I'll keep an eye on this thread for the start time.

Here is the scoop.



Lets meet at the gates @ 9:00 am. The race doesn't start until 12:00 for the diesels but I would like us all to park together. Be sure and mention you are with the DHRA and they are cutting us a $5 break. Prices are as follows for us..... race $30, race + show $40, just show $20.



As far as hotels there is a Comfort Inn 6 miles from the track and another place called Rips resturant and motel. There are also a bunch of hotels near BWI (Baltimore Airport), which is about 15 minutes away. I will see what I can find out as far as phone #'s for the hotels.



I plan on driving in on the 18th. If you can please email me if you plan on attending at -- email address removed --.



Thanks,



Doug Smith

DHRA Division 1 Director

I will be there.



It doesn't look like the weather is going to allow me to get any track time before then, so looks like Capitol will be my "break (but hopefully not) in" runs.



Ted

 

[Rams-n-Hogs]

Unfortunately, I have to go to Ohio for work next week and probably won't be back in time. But if I get back early, I'll be racin'



Jim

 

[ob1kobi]

Less than a week away, is anybody else planning on showing for this?



Ted

 

[KennyM]

I'll be there. Also my eight year old daughter wants to go to watch the JR Drags that run from 10:00 to 12:00. See ya Sunday at 09:00. Ken

 

[ob1kobi]

Well looks like me, Doug, Merv, and Kenny, have 1st through 4th place, not necessarily in that order, wrapped up.



Anybody else showing? Weather is supposed to be pretty sweet!



Chris, do you think your going to make it?



Ted

 

[Jetpilot]

Ted,



I hope I get my truck running by then..... Right now it is out in the garage in a bunch of pieces Oh well, we will see what happens. In any event I will be attending the event just unsure about participating.



Doug

 

[ob1kobi]

Doug,



Well I hope you can get it all back together, I know you have alot of work ahead of you to make it race ready though. Still look foward to seeing you, even if you aren't racing.



I am just trying to drum up some support really, doesn't seem that there is to much intrest in this event.



Ted

 

[c-hawk]

Ted,



I'm pretty sure I'll be there. I'm planning on going down to O. C. for the car show on friday evening(if i don't work sat. ), and will likely come home sat. night just so I can be at capitol sunday morning.



That's my plan, but my plans usually get screwed up. I'll be sure to keep an eye out if I'm there.



Chris

 

[Huff N Puff]

Doug,I can sympathize,cause last week mine was in pieces:s

all over the shop floor,5 days later I'm back together but I'm not quite dialed in,lots of lag on the bottom end. I really hoping you'll make it. You and Ted notch up the competition,which makes it more fun for me,win or lose I can say I'm running with the best in our field. Merv

 

[Huff N Puff]

Hey Doug,got a question for you about DHRA

I sent a email to DHRA about 3 weeks ago about joining. I havn't heard from anyone since. was wondering if you could help me expidite the process for me,so I can be there as a member Sunday.

 

[ob1kobi]

Merv,



FYI, you'll need drive shaft loops to pass tech inspection, both front and rear.



Ted

 

[KennyM]

I think Doug's truck in pieces will be much quicker than mine.

 

[Jetpilot]

Hey Ted its going to rain tomorrow all day so you should just cruise on up to my house and help me put my truck back together... Better yet Merv you could come on up too and help turn some wrenches



Hopefully all will be complete by Saturday but I don't think racing on Sunday will be in my picture :{ But, one never knows



Doug



PS: Merv, you have mail.

 

[Huff N Puff]

Doug,get me directions,a place to stay,

And shower. And if I can find someone to watch my little girl. I may be able to be there Sat. evening. How far are you from the Wash. metro area? Merv
