LK--come listen to my 5". It's sweet--and for sale with truck attached.

Stop by on the way to the pull. I'm on the 4-lane a few miles before you get to Woodbury--across the road from Bean's new location (to be).

 

[WadePatton]

No photo, but I did get another truck.



inherited a Nissan--1987 Z24 motor 5sp 4x4. Rough and ready. 100hp!



checked the mileage once. 16. 5!!! So I get firewood in it and haul my trash.

I'll have to stop by sometime and see your truck.

If I head out there tomorrow I'll have to stop and listen to it.



Anyone know a little more as to where exactly in Woodbury the pull is at? I'll be coming from Nashville so I'm assuming I'd head east on 70S out of Murfreesboro into Woodbury but after that I'm not sure. About how late does anyone guess the diesels will be pulling. I might head out that way depending on how late I get out of the shop tomorrow.

 

[NAIL-IT]

Looks like they CANCELED the pull tomorrow,at MOORESVILLE, they said DUE TO HEAVY RAIN. I read it on MTPA web site DANG !!!!!

 

[BigPapa]

Should've just turned it into a mud bog... ... ... .

[WadePatton]

Barry has the mud bogs! ... and I'll be the pit is might deep right now.



Yeah, they were taking up the signs when I came through town tonight. The track ain't the problem... it's the parking/paddock situation. Had a semi rig stuck out there once. If they held a pull tomorrow--there'd be no end of pulling all the vehicles out. Probably have to pull 'em in too.



It'll be hot and dry soon... wanna bet?:-laf

 

[NAIL-IT]

Hey Scott, are you going to Bowling Green the 26th ?

 

[BigPapa]

Absolutely!!!Oo. Oo. Oo.

For next time.



Yes--70S East to Woodbury. Then Hwy 53 South out of Woodbury-6 miles to Hollow Springs Road--right only, then you'll see it. If you get to 53 Market, too far--stop, go in an get a drink (no beers) then when you come back out the door look across the field and you'll see the pulling track.



They always have plenty of signs around town to point folks out there. If you're pulling a trailer is better to go across the square and turn at McD's. And if you're pulling a trailer--you don't want to miss the Hollow Springs turn off as the roads are at bad angles otherwise--that's how I got the GREEN one crashed into.

 

[NAIL-IT]

Glad your going Scott, Look forward to seeing you.

 

[BigPapa]

I'll hook up with you, Joe , Anthony, and anybody else going closer to time. Maybe we won't have to stop on the interstate and work on that D-max on the trailer this trip. :-laf:-laf

Well guys, I finally saved up enough coin to buy me a SMARTY!! Didnt get to do much driving last night maybe a mile or two from shop to house and man was the power smooth. I knew my TST wasnt right and now I really know something is wrong with it cause the Smarty on 7 blew it a way on my little test drive. I look foward to trying it today since the roads arent wet!!!

 

[NAIL-IT]

Yea , I've spent enough time on it the last few months, i should'nt have to do anything but turn the key and go We'll see !!!!!

 

[WadePatton]

Bean's Preformance shop NEW LOCATION has a gravel base down. Concrete coming next week I hear.



Hope everybody made it through yestiddy's weather all right.

 

[Dieselnutz]

[WadePatton]

I'll be interested when they put a 12v in one (nissan)... Old Crusty.


And now Bean's Preformanance has a fresh concrete floor. I took a nail over there and scratched "Home of the Hoppy Puller!". :-laf

 

[WadePatton]

Hay, thay're framing over there now...



If yall haven't seen the location--it's a big creek bottom with room for a pulling track and all sorts of stuff. Oo.

 

[JMBryant]

Who all is heading to TS this weekend?? I know the Underwood Tire Team will be there probably but who else?? DId Meacham get his motor in? My daughter has a ball game at 10:30 so that throws a wrench in my plans but I might show up late!

 

[Underwood Tire]

it will be a late night at the pull, so come on out

 

[BigPapa]

Looking for a great day! I hope the weather holds out.



Joe, you gonna drag race this year? I figured Barry would. I think there's gonna be a LOT more trucks this year. Wonder how the carry-over into the pull is gonna be this year? What time is the pull supposed to start? And another question, what's the "2. 5" and "2. 8" classes? Some new designation?
