Cmon guys!

Dont let the 4th gen guys push us around!! Show up and defend some 3rd gen honor! There werent many of us last year and this year the rules have really been opened up to allow carbureted cars as well!

Speaking of the rules, I am on the rules committe and I can vouch for the fact that we have been hammering out the rules the past couple weeks and things are looking REALLY good! I think that any who comes will appreciate the time and effort being put in to this year's event.

Hope to see some of you guys there this August!

How far is that away for Peoria,IL may be interested...

 

Well its in Cordova. I cant see it being a terribly long drive for you. A few hours at most? Its like a 6-7 hour drive for me.

 

Carbed big blocks too (maybe with a little juice?)

 

Hell ya, I'm in...I up for killing some LS1s!!! Thats only 1 1/2 hours away

 

Carbed big blocks too Miles.

But if your sprayin, you better be packin! Big Blocks in some classes get penalized with weight adders and a big block on the gun will be stuck in with the big dogs.

 

ok thanks. Just might come down there.

The more the merrier! :lala:

 

Finances, We'll see. Its about 5-6hrs for me. I would like to go though.

 

wait, it's in Cordova this year? Looks like I might go after all even though I fit into no category that I can be competitive in.

 

Guido, I just plugged it into mapquest, and it gave me the milage. 1818 and 32 hrs drive. Looks like you will be the King of the Third Gen's again this year
:hail:

Well.. judging via map.. it looks like it's about 1,000 miles from here to there. probably closer to 1050 given the usual BS.
2000-2100 miles is a bit far for me to stomach, whilst trying to get a business of the ground.

Maybe next year.

I plan on being there, just a little concerned about a few minor things that may not pass tech like no horn, wipers, turn signals. Sionce youre a board member of NFRA can you shed a little light on how strict tech is going to be on this stuff?

 

I got on the NFRA website but couldn't get the rules. The screen would come up but no rules and the printable version has no link or anything. Is this just my computer?

 

You have to go to the message board. The rules are posted inthe individual forums for now since they are still preliminary. They are pretty solid though.

 

I would go but 2 reasons say it ain't gonna happen.
As of right now, from Columbus Ohio, it would be a 500 mile drive. That really isn't so bad except for the fact that I'll actually be in New Jersey this summer so tack on another 500+ miles not to mention I'd have to miss a lot of work and co-op jobs don't usually like you taking off more than a week (already have plans for a vacation), . If it was in the spring or closer to Columbus I probably would try and make it. Oh well, maybe next year.

 

I just don't see me getting the car finished and tuned by August. Not unless some of that over time kicks in.

 

That's a 3 hour drive for me boys. I guess I could drive out and my brother could drive back. He's really into that stuff so we'll see. Good news on the car building front. My brother's '84 Z almost has the whole cage in it now. It's pretty sweet, the guy put in ladder bars and a full rear frame with the cage. That 9" should work pretty good behind his 383. If we can get a big *** trailer and a truck from work I'll definately be there with both cars.
