Mike I am taking the incar camera deal I borrowed from a buddy... Gonna see about mounting it up in the Motown this weekend.. Its really really small (about the size of a cigrette pack) and can be secured with zip ties so it shouldnt be a problem... I want to replace the video thats on the main page right now with the incar shot.. So make sure you get him backed up straight LOL j/k..

Okay, so what time, and where on Saturday? Do we need to do this by Rapids hammock or will he be able to get up from the nap?

As long as the weather looks decent my dad and I will be heading out early Sat. morning. I'd like to meet some 'Maters so I need to know where to be and when.

It's going to rain but will clear out by 3PM and stay nice until Sunday afternoon. That's plenty of time before the 7PM Start of the show.

Nobody replied yet about a 'Mater meeting and I'm leaving in a few. Somebody give me a call @ xxx and let me know where to meet up and at what time.

 

[Gutter Brain]

I put Brent's number in my cell, and know where to find Minick. for those that haven't left yet, what do you think about 5:30pm? Maybe by the Motown Shaker pits so Mike can work until some show up? or Rapids?

 

[Gutter Brain]

It's 2:55am, why am I not sleeping? Oh, yea. I drank a Monster before leaving to come home and a Rockstar in the car. I am downloading the pics from Cordova now.
I had a great time, as did my son and Lynn. We talked to Mike a few times, talked to Randy, then finally hooked up with Brent just before leaving. I chatted with Tony Smith for a few minutes right before I took off too. We got to see some good racing. Bailey LOVED the jet funny cars and dragsters. Almost as much as hanging out with Mike and Randy! Bailey got to sit in Danny Miller's FC. You should have seen the look on his face. He was beaming after he got out.
The Motown Shaker FC tossed the blower belt on the burnout of the first run. I sort of begged (lol) Mike for it if Troy or someone didn't want it, to give to Bai. When we got back after the second round, Mike brought Bai back and gave the belt to him. WOW!!!!! The look, again! Maybe beat the look as Rapid signed the piston for Bailey.
And big thanks to Timmah for sending Bailey the ear muffs. He loved them. He was so excited about feeling the Nitro cars and not complaining too much about the noise.
Thanks Randy, Mike, all the teams at Cordova last night.
Okay, took a while and went through a few pics. Will upload the rest later.

I am about ready to get breakfast before I head back to Indy, but enjoyed myself tremendously at this deal. I am planning on coming up for this next year.
I'll have some pictures after I get back to Indy, but Cordova is an awesome place to watch and to be at. I am going to mark off the dates on the calender so I can come back next year.

I'll keep it short and sweet.... LOL
