If you only go to the Sunday car show, you're missing 7/8's of the fun cheers

I will be there this year, unless I plan a vacation that week. That seems to happen alot by accident.

Hey sprint,are you not going to the 45th in april.They have a 2 day challenge on the 2.3 mile road course.

by sprint200 on February 24th 2009, 9:16 pm

There are several reasons we're not going to Barber. The most important is that we have a daughter in high school with lots of commitments in the month of April.

Second, my small business is not immune to this economy.... lonely

But also, I've heard from quite a few full-time or part-time professional drivers about the management at that track with all of their rules and penalties. Like the NASCAR commercial last year, if you go off track not only will you be paying to fix your car but you'll be going to the Home Depot to buy new sod and shrubbery to replant it. It just doesn't sound like a driver friendly environment. We are truely spoiled here in Oklahoma by Hallett and its management and crew.

I think I solidified doing the cruise in Thurdsay, going to Hallett to watch on friday, Watching the drags on Saturday, and the car show on sunday. Its going to be a blast!

by Leonard 95 on February 24th 2009, 9:35 pm

Yea, I think I am going to try to take Thursday and Friday off for sure. I would really like to see Hallett, never watched road racing before.

Honestly is amazing fun. You need to talk some of the members into letting you do a ride a long....possibly mr Grabber Orange GT500 himself might take you for an amazing ride!

I road with one of our supercharged members BOB last year...as well as Crazy Paul at the track. Makes you want to forget drag racing and start building up a road racing suspension...its a great time!! Killer on the brake pads though

Yea, I would probably be to scared to ride with Jeff. I am not a corner carver at all, to much of a puss I guess.

Age is just a number. You only as old as you feel. baby

I am registered and am going to the banquet. I am taking Thursday and Friday off of work. I'll let the out of towners drive Hallett and the drags but I'll be there to watch.

I was stuck in Africa last year and I'll be damned if I will miss any of this this year. Come to think of it, I'll probably be damned anyway......

by carcrazy53 on February 25th 2009, 12:28 pm

Damn,i'll be 83 at the 50th. thud
