Get an Oval car Gino. they're way less expensive!
I have one lol...but I think it needs a few parts swapped out (springs, etc). PLus, those tires are expensive lol. I will just be bringing the X Ray this week and maybe hopefully the truck the next.

Hey fellas, does anyone have any loose cells laying around that they want to sell? I'm looking for two. I have two loose 3300 cells that I want to make a practice pack out of. The numbers on the pack are: 409 sec 1.167 but anything in the ball park would work (just a practice pack). LMK

A young magician started to work on a cruise ship with his pet parrot. The parrot would always ruin his act by saying things like, “He has a card up his sleeve” or “He has a dove in his pocket.”

One day the ship sank and the magician and the parrot found themselves alone on a lifeboat. For a couple of days, they just sat there looking at each other. Finally, the parrot broke the silence and said, “Okay, I give up. What did you do with the ship?”

Say it aint so. The hobby needs more people like yourself. They've even started running a truck class at the track just for you. Well maybe not just for you but I know how much you wanted to run trucks and they're doing it 4 cell 19t just like you wanted. I know once you havent raced in a while how easy it is to stop so come on out and race again and see if you really want to stop. Maybe the truck guys will let you win.:p

A young ventriloquist is touring the clubs and one night he's doing a show in a small club in a small town in Arkansas. With his dummy on his knee, he's going through his usual dumb blonde jokes when a blonde woman in the fourth row stands on her chair and starts shouting: ''I've heard enough of your stupid blonde jokes. What makes you think you can stereotype women that way? What does the color of a person's hair have to do with her worth as a human being? It's guys like you who keep women like me from being respected at work and in the community and from reaching our full potential as a person, because you and your kind continue to perpetuate discrimination against, not only blondes, but women in general...and all in the name of humor!''

The ventriloquist is embarrassed and begins to apologize, when the blonde yells, ''You stay out of this, mister! I'm talking to that little jerk on your knee!''


Hey Shannon if youare thinking of selling the trailer there are a few guys at the track looking for one.

Pooler up near Savannah?
Yes everyone. Pooler Ga, is like exit 102 and 104 off of I-95 which to most people is still savannah, except for the people that live there. It's about a two hour drive with traffic so it's kinda like trying to get to hobby world from middleburg on a friday night with Blanding blvd. traffic.:rolleyes:

A man, George, and his friend Chris went out hunting. This was Chris's first time ever hunting, so he was following George's lead. George saw a small herd of deer and told Chris to stay in the exact spot he was and to be quiet.

After a few minutes, George heard a loud scream. He ran back and asked Chris what had happened. Chris said “There was this snake and he slittered across my feet, but I never screamed. Then there was this bear that came up to me and snarled, but I never screamed.”

“So then what did make you scream,” George asked, exasperated. “Well,” Chris continued, “two squirells crawled up my pants and I overheard them say, ‘Should we take them home or eat 'em now?’”

Hey guys I got an old friend wanting to come back into racing .problem is he has a like new TC3 (ran 3 times on the ground maybe) and doesn't like Touring. And there in lies the problem. so If any of you have been wanting a touring car and have something that comes close in value in an Oval car let me know he is willing to swap. It is The Team kit. And very clean. Has new cs 22's that come with it. LMK Thanks Chris

Well, I hate to say it, but I cant make it tonight either....I have an appointment at the bank today and then my dad is coming and needs me to help him with some things across town. My brother is flying back in from Washington then late tonight and i told him I would pick him up since his wife is also out of town.

Hopefully, if things go the way I think they are though, all of my money issues will be gone for good and then I will be able to have fun again lol.

Thanks for all of the thoughts and offers though George and the others!

Alright now lets not let a little thing like a hurricane dampen(a bad choice of word?)our spirits. I predict that friday night will be beautiful and the track will be perfect and fast. Will we see another 33 lap run in stock? How about that 37 lap 19t run thats coming? Will there be enough touring cars to race? Will someone stink up the pits? Well thats a given, it's the only constant every week. I'm in. Anyone else?

Mike,
I dont think JP,..its Jp not Pj lol. I have called him worst! I think with him driving against veteran drivers will help improve his driving skills tremendously (sp?). I even thought about running against him, but I would have to live with him beating his Dad. So thats not going to happen, but it might who knows. I hope to be back running this Friday if the notion is there, right now its just not there. We see what this week brings.

Hope everybody is safe and dry during this storm. Take care and stay inside!

Later
Henry

Mike, no problem. I dont mind racing against JP, at all. But lately I just haven't felt like racing. I guess one could say I have lost some interest in racing, so I have decided to take a break for a while. I wouldn't mind getting beaten by my son either, when I get back into racing. See everybody at the track Friday night!

As far as stinking up the pits-it's a good thing I call the races when a "Biological Terror Incident" such as above mentioned happens. Yikes!

Ok I'll bite. I'd start with a 33 since with an average new tire size of 2.35" and a 112 spur that'll put your roll out at 2.1741696 depending on how strong the motor is you may even drop one tooth or go up several. I've run monsters of questionable power from 2.05 up to 2.40. Tom Pedano and Dave P. really have stock figured out lately so maybe you can pry their secrets from them. Motor power numbers aint it.

09-27-2004, 06:37 PM
I may do something friday night if I race that I have'nt done in over 14 years. No! that aint it.:rolleyes: I may run an non Associated pan oval car. I've owned a Maverick OPC since February and it may finally hit the track. Oh yeah and the blaspheme of all blasphemes? It is not pink yellow and white. I may not be able to follow it on the track, It's an "paint by Focker" 01 army car. Black with yellow trim. Yeah I said black. Nobody may be able to follow it. What was I thinkin?

Oh yeah all the comments about my pink #37 car have finally gotten to me and I switched colors on my newest "bright" car from Neon red(the afforementioned pink) to neon racing red. Still bright just not bright pink. Burned all my Village people eight tracks too.
