Essentially we are ready. Probably put around 100 miles on her car the last 2 weekends. Just tweaking stuff and so forth. Made a fan shroud for a dual fan setup I need to switch out just to try and keep things a little cooler. Didn't have a shroud on it before and with driving it needs one. Thats about it.

We're planning on getting there sometime in the early evening. Its a little over 2hrs for us to National Trails so we can leave whenever we want. If we can't park outside the track for the night, we'll just find a local Wally World to crash at in the RV. You guys have a room for that night also? Mitch (Goatmanmitch) and his lovely bride will meet up with wherever we stop.

We'll be at the Best Western on Arrowhead in Hebron with a lot of other Drag Weekers. There will be some serious socializing going on in that area.

Two good friends from Abilene area are entered and are just about ready to roll. Look for a 37 Ford Pickup in Hot Rod Class and a black 57 Chevy in Modified Naturally Aspirated. 37 Ford has averaged over 187 mph and been clocked at over 200 at Nevada silver state challenge.
