Ted,
We have been running, 6-cell stock, 4-cell 19t and 4-cell stock. Stock is a little more popular, Mel has been the one pushing 19t. So come on up and be ready to run one or all. The stock classes are for sure, 19t might change depending on who shows up??? Are you planing on comping up this weekend?
Jake

Thought I would add, that I was the big loud dude that was sitting in front of you in Lansing. :D

Yep, I knew that, good to put a face with the name. Thanks for the reply. I am going to Lansing and have to figure out if I want to come home or just stay up there for Saturday. My wife has this crazy idea that I should stay home and get ready for Christmas.

How did you know who I was? I had no idea who you were, I had to ask Kevin. Of course I had heard of you and your legendary status, I just didn't know that I was lucky enough to pit by you! :D

I'm not 100% sure, but I think Ed has some X-13 T-bars and bottom plates. It's the X-15 that are made of Unobtainium (or possibly Umakeium). If Ed comes to Mt. Pleasant tomorrow I'll find out. You need the one that's more an "L" shape than a "T", right?

t3rc1
12-21-2002, 12:49 AM
Hey Kevin.Yes,,,,,I think i have one for Chuck but i have to find it first.I am running a 15 and i have a spare 13 and i was syre i had an extra Tbar but i am still looking.It is the L shaped one.

Scott(t3rc1):thumbsup:

I hope you all had a good time in Lansing on Friday and I am sorry I could not make it. Mount Pleasant is also going to be a no go for me. I have the family Xmas obligations I have to attend to. I also have a Xmas job I have to go to as well. I would love to be there to see Kieth kick Deanos butt. But, who knows, Everyone has thrown a twist into the equation. Mel has been very fast, and Walter, Ted, Doug, Frank and I know I am missing names. SOrry bout that. But I hope you all have a great time.

Actaully I gave him an old speedo that I hadn't used in years in trade, and I told him I didn't want anything for it, and then he goes and does this..... Don't you worry Geroge, I'll get you......... :D
