Is this just true in Nebraska? I have never had that experience before.

That's the stated policy from Holiday Inn web site, and all the secondary sites like Hotels.com. When you make a reservation, there's a warning screen that you have to check yes or no.

Last summer I had a week end reserved in Hastings. Then the event was cancelled. I still had to pay.

My rate was $70.00 a night for the Government rate. Oh and the Huskers take on ND State in Lincoln. So yes I would get my room right away.

We are working out the details but the will likely be fewer classes this year all across the board. We always have more trophies than we have drivers.

Clois, how was it printed on our flier? Are there 2 pony classes?

Well then, can I get a trophy from last year? I can't wait to see everyone again and hopefully some new faces as well. Still trying to get my car back from the painters and start reassembling. I think I will like the new venue as well since I don't see any concrete walls in Nascar turn 4.

This is not the final version but a source very near and dear to you has it on his computer. We are waiting on a sponsors box at the bottom to fill up. So far we have 6 sponsors committed to helping us with our ads in Kit Car Builder. We are also looking at placing ads in another magazine as well.

Interesting foot note is that we have had more inquiries this year than we have had in the 4 years Dean and I have been organizing this event. Maybe we need to make Run N Gun a traveling event every year or so?

Thanks Clois, I'm sure he will post it when the time is right. Traveling RNG - I think is a great idea. I know many that I spoke to at the last two RNG's in St. Louis really thought Hallet, Putnam and others would be great to visit. I only hope you keep it in the Midwest as it seems to be central to those traveling to the event. Although, I'm not sure I will make it to Nebraska this year, having to pick and choose my trips for this year.

Hey Clois, keep up the good work.
My eyes are shot, just been out windsurfing all morning (no wetsuit, 78 deg, he he he).
Did I read the flyer correctly that there is no prep class for DOT tires?, only Street and Pro. Does that mean that I need to figure out how to drive with slicks?

I thought the DOT crowd was a large class. I know last year was light, but the weather was a last minute factor. I think the year before, the BB prep class was one of the biggest, maybe 10 or 11 cars.

The thinking here is that a 17 inch DOT slick like a Hoosier A6 is just as competitive as a 15 inch true slick. I have ran them both and I can tell you that the Hoosier is faster for an amateur driver. The prepared class was for the DOT slick crowd. If you are in prepared and not running the DOT slicks you will not be any more or less competitive in the pro class. I have seen many years where the prepared guys out run the pro guys. The prepared guys in the front of the pack don't run tires that can be driven on the street on a regular basis.

Smile Great pictures

George Anderson George With Dean running around at mach 2 speed the ponds are going to need a little protection. Dean likes water and grass and is always looking for the quickest way around the track. Not sure if he is a duck or lawnmower. If the car breaks we can always go fishing? Looks like a fun track.

Looks like fun to me! I am planning on coming up again this year. I missed last year for many reasons, but I think it's gonna be a blast up in Hastings! Now, if I can just figure out a way to slow down Bailey and Wild Bill, I may have a chance...

Default James, you sandbagger

JUS BIT James you are getting a 200 pound lead weight to keep your class fair. Hope you can make the trip. George has some real fun things for the group to do. Something to deal with KOOL AID. Sound like a good road trip. Get your hotel rooms soon, there a big football game this weekend and they are selling out fast. You have 48 hours to canel and get your money back. Holiday inn is as nice as Gateways one. Bring fishing poles, 2 ponds on the track. I betting Dean goes swimming first. Talk to you. Rick L.

James, It will be good to see you again (growing smaller in my rear view mirror!)

Just kidding my friend! I look forward to chasing you for a few laps!

Dean & Clois,
George has always invited me up to his track and although I may not race, it would be a great time to finally meet you two in person. I'm very excited for George that the R & G will be at his track.

George- will you be having a open house at your machine shop ?

Ricky- you have no,..... excuse of getting in your LEAR JET and flying down to the track to be with us !

Isn't this the picture you sent me of your latest Jet, or did you end up buying the space shuttle you wanted ?
