Re: Bradenton goes IHRA
 

It's obvious that as sportsman racer's, not everyone can race at EVERY event. So depending on what "turns you on", (because a little sex is better than NO sex - right Ed?) you pick which weekends you're going to be racing. A lot of us won't be racing every week next year, but I'll bet all of us will race every chance we can. I remember when "Buster's Rebel's" Division 2 included races in Virginia and Florida! I'm just very thankful I still have a place to race!!

See you all at Immokalee in February! (919 miles one-way)

Jim, I run both when I can get away. Your right. I'm the only duck there. Around here it's the same guys as at the NHRA races. For some reason I don't understand, just not as many of them. Brit, Slate, and Larry Cummings, The Southland Perf guys, etc, are just as tough there as anywhere else.

Ed , good luck in 2012, maybe we will cross paths again, its always good to see you

Re: Bradenton goes IHRA
 

Jim,
I need more than a100',can't put enough gear in back to use all four gears in 100'. When I was a kid I had a go kart geared that low though, yeah that's right my go kart had a stick in it!
I hope to at least double my race shedule from last year(one weekend), within 2 weeks of starting the season.Remodel project has drywall hung won't be long now.
Hope to head south in the spring and get early start.

I accept this award on behalf of all fellow sarcastic racers out there. It appears my comment was a thread killer Chip.
