"Live" from Norwalk points race!

Larry Hill · 05-14-2009, 07:05 AM

Well we are on our way. Got almost thru the state of KY last night. Stopped at Carrollton, KY at the Wal-mart. Larry is out shopping now. So now we just have the whole state of Ohio to get thru. Looks like it is going to be raining on us all the way. Weather for the weekend looks better, tho. Maybe some rain on Sat, but the rest of the time looks good.

More later.

It has finally stopped raining. Just stopped for lunch at a rest area just outside of Delaware, OH--the home of that famous Mopar racer Chuck Beach! The sky is blue and we are ready for a great weekend. We should be there in another couple of hours.

More later.

That Jim is a Chrysler dealer, racing just might be at the bottom of his priority list right now. About 800 dealers are about to get dumped.

Not to detract from the original theme of the thread, but Pancake seems to be safe. Here is a list that supposes those dealers that are going down:

And, a list of dealers that appear to be on the "keepers" list:

We're here! We're Here! We're here! What a great looking facility! I think this is the first time that we have been plugged in to electricity at a race. We got here about 2:30 (after a detour off 250). They said we could park anywhere up to a certain point. Lots of great parking still left. We are in the middle down beyond the finish line just because we didn't know where we were going. We could of gotten further down, but we saw a great spot and just stopped.

We are about to have Skyline Chili for supper thanks to Rick & Phyllis Winchester. Boy does it smell good. Thanks guys!

Racers seen so far:Greg Hill (after 1 of his Bloody Mary's, Phyllis had to go in and take a nap), Tom Rambo, Dick Kincaid, Terry Nagel, Joey Wilkes and his new GTO stocker, Randy Wilkes, Judi Bureski, Rock and Ginny Running, Gary Russell, Gary Tompa, Doug Duell (at least his car).

Supper's ready! More later.

Sorry but I have a really bad connection here and have been trying to get on all morning. Evidently if 2 people are on their cellphones, they won't let the computer on. Well it is a beautiful morning here, and they just called Stock up to the lanes. More racers seen: Jim and Mrs. Marshall, Dave and Mrs. Edwards, Keith Lynch, Tim Gillespie and Debbie, Mike Fuller, Sam Hamod, Bob Gere, Jason and Judy McCormack.

Well, I'm going on up to watch. More later.

Mom is experiencing technical difficulties and will not be able to post much if at all. AT&T signal is not very good.

Stay Tuned for "Live from Topeka" in two weeks.
