DeVallion,

I'm not sure if you know this or not but the Mile High's don't run on Thursday anymore, not since they stopped racing alcohol dragster and funny car a few years back. It's just a Friday through Sunday event now. I hope I didn't burst your bubble if you were planning to go to the track on Thursday. There is the annual Mopar big block party Thursday night from 6pm to 10pm in downtown golden where they close off the main street. They have some old mopars on display, live music, food and drink, as well as a dozen or so of the mopar affiliated drivers signing autographs. I haven't officially heard either way, but I'm hoping they don't cancel it this year because of the six weeks in a row schedule. Hope this helps.

Wow! Considering how HOT it was at the Divisional. Sheesh!

Should be there. The Roadster is Mopar powered. We are leaving tonight so we can do the block party. I should also have extra tickets for Sunday if anybody wants to buy. Since I'm leaving you can e-mail me at [email protected]

I'll be there all 3 days. I sure wish they would run on Thursday. It was always a great day to hang out in the pits.

I will be there on Sunday.
Unfortunately I have to be in Boulder on Saturday.

Okay, I'll be the guy in the very silly hat. Geez.
Stop by the Lucas Oil display on the Midway and say "hello." Our independent Funny Car "The Firefighter" will be there, on display, as we support the firefighters' charity effort.
According to the weather guessers, it should be a good bit cooler than last year's event. Just the same, at this altitude, the sun's rays can be intense. If you have a glabrous pate, as I do, wear a hat!
Cheers,
Ed
P.S. You'll hear the usual complaints about the altitude and the thin air. This just in: the altitude is the same in both lanes!
