Doug,



Didn't you say that you had a place to camp out at during Reedsville?? I was thinking you said you guys camp. . We are thinking about staying overnite (well at least Keith and I are, not to sure what Jeremy is gonna do). . If we can get this pull next weekend through then we are gonna start focusing on Reedsville. . Oh I forgot to tell you Keith's transmission took a dump on him last friday going to the track!! I'm thinking a sun gear went out on it. . It moves with no problems but lots of grinding going on inside. . So far NADP is standing behind it 100%... I told him to buy a Suncoast but he wouldn't listen. . Oh well...

Joe,



We have enough space to accomodate at least 20 campers if you have generators(As long as the ground is dry). We can supply power for 4 or five campers. All are welcome to come. Anyone interested call me in advance so I can keep track of who is coming. (304-864-3399) I'm glad to hear NADP is taking care of Keith. I am a Suncoast man myself, but I have not heard anything negative about NADP. I know lots of West coast guys using their stuff with good sucsess. Just let me know if there's anything you need, as Dawn and I are more than willing to help. :-laf

Jeff Knight, JStrosnider is right its about 15 mi east on rt 7, from exit 4 in I-68.



I did edit the phone number, it was the fax line, good catch HOCummins04. Noone had mentioned that yet. Thereare rooms blocked for Valley District Fair, mention it to get the discount.



I talked to lots of people at IRP that were coming, already had rooms, ect. I'm Glad to see such a big turnout.

here are directions from the Euro-suites .

any one else coming straight in needs to get off of exit 4 on I-68 and follow the directions from there

I have heard some concern about parking and trailers and the pits from people, We will be handling this better this year than in the past. were going to put all trucks driving in to pull across the track, leaving our usual pit open to pullers with trailers. Im also hoping to push a little more pit area off with the dozer before fair time.

Doug NADP is taking good care of this situation. . Keith stressed to them about our pull being rescheduled for next weekend and they were going to build a completely new one for him and ship but instead they are having us ship it to SUNCOAST in Florida and they are going to do the warrenty work and they said it should be back before next friday!! NADP said they would do this so we could get the transmission back in the truck sooner and we wouldn't have to deal with customs taking so long getting it across the border. . Also none of this is going to cost him a dime they have already. I talked to Barry (one of the owners) from up there and he seems like a really nice person EH!!

We don't have a camper but we do a good size tent. . I don't know we are just trying to get things gathered together so we have an idea of what were going to get ourselves into over there...

Doug,



Looks like we are going to have a SUNCOAST transmission after all!!! The transmission is on it's way to Suncoast and they are going to completely rebuild it with their stuff and NADP is paying for all of it. . They are also upgrading to Billet shafts and they are going to up the stall on the converter a little bit. . It may not have been a Suncoast transmission originally but it will be eventually!!!!
