I am the announcer at the track that Chase speaks of and I have put an email into the track manager. I am awaiting her response. I will be there for sure if I am not racing elsewhere. Let's organize a bracket race to through in and get a little friendly competition going. Just an idea. As soon as I know something on a date, I'll let Chase know and post it here.

Excellent. Bracket racing is fun and a great idea. For those that have never tried it, it is not how fast you are that wins, it is how consistent you can be. A stock vehicle has the advantage in bracket racing.

I'll go as long as I won't be TAD that time period. Might have to carpool with another SoCal guy if I can

I passed Fontana on my way to LA yesterday. For any AZ people interested (Devan) it's about 5.5 hours from my house in Phoenix, with a 30 minute food/gas break.

So here's the deal ladies! Just got my shipping orders and will be gone for 4 months, however, I might be taking a LOA in January just so I can come play with you guys at Fontana. I'll know more in a few days but when the date is set and figured out please post up so I know when to take some time off.
I was hoping to have another project done my then but I don't think it'll be done by then. Oh well...dyno queen gets to go play at the track at least one more time!
