I'm ready for those drinks but I better stick to my diet cokes for a few more hours!

If you are running I-75 thru Georgia today you better run the speed limit! Lots of police patrolling!!

We are here and stacked. Didn't get here in time for clean up but we will be ready tomorrow !! Got a little caught up with Jim and Pam and Mike and Barbara! It is calling for rain tomorrow so looks like a good day to sleep in. After 750 miles riding today after another 250 yesterday I am ready for bed! May be watching the KY game thru my eyelids!

Jerry, the Challenger will be out later this year!!

Tonka and I have been here since last night. Rained for about 20 min. This am. Glidden update is he underwent surgery yesterday to put a brace on his four broken ribs to keep from puncturing a lung. His lungs are bruised and being evaluated for head injury. Car has Been cut up to get him out. No word on why it happened. It was a horrific crash. Video was on local news channel yesterday. Jim

Well it has rained here all day! Quite a few rigs here stacked. No news on what is happening tomorrow . We are still hoping to test. I am sure everything depends on the weather! Forecast is for 20% chance of rain tomorrow , then sunny the rest of the weekend!

According to Competition Plus Glidden is being released from the Hospital...

Testing going on today?

Larry Hill · 02-23-2017, 03:09 PM

We are in and parked and teched. We had planned to test but the track hasn't announced if they are going to run it! A few sprinkles just fell as I was starting out with my camera.

The pits are wet but should be drying up soon. Looks like great weather beginning tomorrow

More later
