I need to thank the guys at Garys Speed shop for giving us a push off the line with our liner. I went to their website but there is no contact us with an e-mail?

If anyone knows an e-mail address or phone number that would be great.

Thanks

Thats the coolest part of land speed racing Gary Thanks.

We had quite the challenge again with making some runs.....I hear Woody is not allowed to go anywhere with us as we kinda have a rain cloud above us??

Besides that getting to chat with fellow Wisconsinite Stock Car racer Dave Marcus nothing can quite compare. Dave is one of a kind. I plan on putting some hours in to try to beat the Daves "Fast car" of the event in May He had fast time....again. Good Job Dave.

Dave was at the last Maxton event.  Very cool that he's found a second career make it tough on us youngsters!

As far as Woody being a contributing factor to stormy weather, you'd be hard pressed to think of someone you'd rather have around when the clouds really opened up.

Burton - are you planning on "World of Wheels" again in West Allis?  I'm thinking of bringing the Midget to the show.

I don't know about anyone else but Dave nearly gave me a heart attack Saturday afternoon.
He came through on this very clean and fast pass.....then



his chute did not open until just before short shutdown so he really had his work cutout for him to get it stopped.
He turned into long shutdown hot and the rear end slid out causing him to loop and go in the grass.
Fire and rescue rolled and luckily all they had to do way pull him out!



Dave and car were OK and he came back later to set the top speed of the meet for cars at 218!

Dave, if you see this and as a favor to everyone.....please don't do this again...LOL!

No worries, I talked to Dave in the staging lanes after that run and he intentionally spun the car so he didnt run off nose first and tear it up. Pretty fast thinking I would say. And keep the foot on the throttlle a little so you dont flat spot the rear tires. I have to keep that one in the memory bank if the new Datsun appears with the E engine next year. You do what you gotta do.

That was a inside Joke with Woody and his Wife. It seems there is a cloud that follows me around on occasion. ITs just a perseverance test I believe.

As far as the World of Wheels I am debating about it. The Milwaukee or Chicago ones are of interest trying to land a sponsor,,,,,
