Zero chance of rain predicted for Tulsa LODRS!
 
Should be drier than last year. Weather Chanel predicts high temps of 90 to 92. Testing here yesterday it was 100 at the track. 3700' to 3900' DA. Should be better for the race next weekend. If anybody needs anything while here let me know.

Sammy,
That would be like "Not going" to No Problem because there are Hurricanes that come through the south. I think with a fast car you can out run one of those tornados. Don't know about doing that with a hurricane, might run out of gas trying to get away from one of those big buggers.. :~)

Sammy,

Coming from someone that has spent his entire life in "Dorothy & Toto" land, come on to Tulsa and just hang close. If by chance (slim) that the weather threatens, I'll provide complete directions on what procedures you should take.

I've experienced eathquakes and the remnants of a few hurricanes...... I'll take a puny ol twister any day of the week.

Unk

Re: Zero chance of rain predicted for Tulsa LODRS!
 
Sammy, the season is really over. We do have warnings. Supposed to be 90 to 92 deg, and seldom gets as humid as down your way.

Sammy,
I hate to sound like I'm making fun of your "ism", (Lord knows I suffer from a couple) but that is funny. Those pictures of Topeka must have really been touching....I've stayed away from races because of the threat of rain, ice, snow, heat and other forms of weather (including a hurricane, remember Ennis & Rita!), but I've never stayed home from a race because of the threat of a tornado. Just a thought. Wouldn't life be better if you face your fear and win the race? Then you would "Really" have something to rib Ed about!! ;~)

Re: Zero chance of rain predicted for Tulsa LODRS!
 
guys you have to admit this has been fun. i have been working out in the boat shed working on my latest project a 28ft bertram that sid and jeff talked me in to buying .and when i come in for a break to see what new response you have come up with.good friends good stories. that is what i like about our drag racing famley.but adger just for the fun of it call or email sid and get him to tell you about me and tornado's i think you will enjoy. ask him about as coming back from amarillo and the tornado.

Re: Zero chance of rain predicted for Tulsa LODRS!
 
BTW Sammy,

Re: Zero chance of rain predicted for Tulsa LODRS!
 
OK Sammy,
I think I'll call him. It might be a story that would be better when I could hear the inflection in his voice!! HA! I do love to here him tell stories.
Last year at the Engine Masters if there was a slow time Sid was right there with "Did I ever tell you about the time"?------Or he would ask Wesley "Do you remember old So and So when they raced"?.....They were outstanding. :~)

Thanks,
Adg
BTW
Good luck on that boat project. You do understand what a boat "IS"??
It is a hole in the water you throw money into......

sammy pizzolato 06-05-2011 10:18 PM

Re: Zero chance of rain predicted for Tulsa LODRS!
 
yes adger a boat is a big!!!!! hole in the water to put money in. i had a 28 bertram for 18 years and sold it in 03 and i missed it. so one day at the lunch room were we eat at every day. jeff walked in with an ad in the new orleans paper with one for sale. so me and sid took a ride to n.o. to look at it. it was a dog so sid found one on ebay in fla. a later model from the one i had. over a five month stay on ebay the owner took my offer. so i had it trucked in and the rest is history. but the amarillo story is worth the phone call you will like it. if you have a face book account look up me and go to my fishing pics. i have pics of me mark oswald the late less lovit from nhra. less took some great pics on some offshore trips we went on before he passed away. in fact the best pics he took with were with me less and james caro before he died.
