Competition DHRA Race @ Beech Bend Raceway

[BCarmicle]

Anyone going to the DHRA drag race this saturday @ Beech Bend Raceway in Bowling Green, KY. ?

So Brandon, are you going to sweep that series down there? I'll see you the 6th & 7th for the Pro Street race. Dennis said there are a lot of locals signed up to run tomorrow. Good luck!

 

[BCarmicle]

A sweep? I don't know about that but I'm going to do my best.



Locals? I just hope Dennis hasn't turned the local boys truck's up too much.



And what about those helmets. Any suggestions on where to get one real fast?

Any motorcycle shops close? Those are the best and easiest place to get them in a hurry. They usually have a better selection also.

One truck that will be there is "fat boy" . To me it's a Tonka toy. That's what Jeff named the new truck, anyway. The bad part is we won't have any track time on the truck at all till the first run a Bowling Green. We really don't have a clue how the body will react on the race frame. The truck used to run with a steel body, but that was almost 3 years ago and 300 HP less. I guess we'll see.



Darren will be there with the 4X4 that won last year and Earl with his rocket. Should be a good time.

As some of you know, David has had a problem with the tires on the dyno blowing out on the road. That has been corrected. I replaced the brake assembly and tires with 8 lug rims. Dodge style. Now if my work holds out, the dyno will leave here thursday and be in BG friday.

If I know Mike and David, the dyno will run till the trucks run out or they do. Last year I don't think they stopped till dark.



. . See Ya. .

We will be running by 8:00am or so Friday at TS, then as soon as we get set-up at the track. We will run at the track until about 1 hour before the end of the event so we can tear down. A little longer is we need to.



I'll be signing up each morning as usual. This gives folks a fair chance to get on the list for each day. Please remember, this year we are not taking checks. Please have cash.



Thanks, this should be a great weekend. Also, if it rains, we have a location at TS undercover so the dyno will still run, rain or shine. Oo.
