I still haven't heard from them nor has the check cleared yet.

Hey Ron, give Peggy a shot at;

rvrrat@pmt.org

She came thru for me.

Good luck Brad. Hope you guys can put together a great field. We're going to have our son and some of the rest of the NW gang along with us and see if we can generate some interest in this circle racing stuff up here. I think it's F'n cool~~~~~~

Crap Brad. If we still had our trailer we would have had plenty of room for you but Jan and I just got rid the trailer last weekend and bought a camper to downsize to something that we can tow the boat with.

Looking forward to seeing you guys in a week

Hope you can make it Glenn and Brad. Reading the trashtalking on the other site makes me think this will be something to see.....

Terry Valore offered up the spare bed in his room, but theres now a possibility that Jen's nephew (16yo) might fly out a week early for the wedding and go to burley with me. if thats the case, we will get a room. thanks for the offer glenn...i will let you know within the next day or two.

We have a room at the Fairfield that we are not going to use if someone needs it. I will be cancelling it Friday

We're out.... The son-n-law just got laid off and we better save some money in case they need it. I don't know if we can transfer the camp site but we paid $50 bucks to reserve site 44 at the races and one of you are welcome to it if we can figure out how to transfer it.

Damn John, that blows, on another note, I may be doing a little job change, so my life may be getting intresting soon too..I don't know if I am going or not, starting a new job these days, especially leaving a job of 12 years, is new territory for me...

Sorry to hear about your SIL, what does he do? If I may ask...

« **Reply #36 on:** June 20, 2009, 01:51:32 PM »

It's okay Glenn, we're definately going next year.

Congrats on the new path. A person needs to do that once in a while. Though I've worked for the same place for 30 years, I've changed career paths many times. Best of luck.

Ed is a contractor at the local Navy submarine base. Sounds like the cutbacks have impacted all the "non-defense" type activities but they have told him they want him back ASAP which certainly makes him feel better. He's a good kid.

Take care and keep in touch.

Now back on topic.......

Well this is what I know! That 402 boat is running the fastest @ low 90's and is kicking ass! The 21 boat has gone through one engine during testing and is out of the race due to not being able to get the F**kin spare motor tunned in right and the Driver/owner of the boat is ready to pull the drain plug and leave it in the Snake! They still have an 8 boat feild with Lance,Toby and Glen fighting Bow to Bow to Bow!

Thats all i got.

Great News about Louis!,,,, CONGRATULATIONS!

Louis called me Thursday telling me how good it was running. Louis had completely rebuilt the boat. (that's why he was running his family boat at Parker). Apparently he had them covered by half a lap in the first heat race, and he went ahead and put a larger jet in the carb to be safe, but still had the power to control the race.

I did some work on that engine, although I did not build it from the ground up. Guess there are people questioning how big it is, but its well within the rules, didn't even spend any money porting the heads while they were off. They are actually an APBA spec head with all the castings in the runners still in place, same with the intake.

Good luck again tomorrow!

Thanks for the props Barry. Yes I was running very well today. Finished first in the heat and first in the main. The boat and engine were running very well. Still neeed to work on the set up a little there are some minor handeling issues that we need to tweek but will get them straightend out.

Lost the ride plate in the first heat , but thanks to Harold Bruce and Terry Volare and Glen Dillworth we managed to make a new one before the final and had the boat running back up front.

Here is a photo shot by Mike Guardalabene yesterday, but just had a phone call from Louis, he won both the heat and the main again today, apparently just barely beating Lance in the main, getting in a little better turn than he did.
