Western States Cobra Bash 2007 – Main Thread

[cindrrrr]

Ok Thudmaster...what do we have to do to get one out here? I love quartermiles!!! We used to go to the NHRA's alot in Pomona, and also Bakersfield, but we need a track that is centrally located up here in NoCal or NOCentral CA. OR Fernelly needs to get one going. It would be nice to have one near our homes, of course and preferably near or with a road track. Tell me who to contact, what Congressman do I have to hound write a gazillion letters to.....I will do it!!!

Kristen, never say never. Every time I do, I end up with a foot in my mouth, luckily one of my own puny ones!!! I'll think positive thoughts for ya just in case!!

[cindrrrr]

Ok, got so excited, in thinking its probably better in NV anyway, dont know if CA can deal with more race stuff. Less legislation in Nevada??? hmmmm who do we know in Nevada that can help us out here. John you have a pm.

Hey Cindy,

You have mail.

I did hear a rumor that Jamo may sponsor the parking "Ramp Races" again! (I don't think you will ever live that down, Ron.)

Not trying to complicate John and the rest of the WSCB crew's lives BUT there is a drag strip at Reno-Fernley Raceway. It is not sancioned by the big name associations so you can race cars so long as they are street legal. That mean our puny a** roll bars are OK. I know that the plans are already pretty well set for this year but maybe drag racing could be included in 08.

Yes... thank you Dick,

There will be no drag racing at the 2007 Track Day. Duane and I have discussed this issue several times and both agree, it's not as easy as it may sound. There are logistical and safety issues associated with the idea as well, given Fernley’s layout. You really can’t have the road course and drag racing happening together. Also, we hate to see some of you breaking things before you get a chance to drive.

We are open to the idea but not for 07.

Talk soon, John

My hounding of people is put to rest.....altho if there was some way to do a 1/4mile track day next year, safely.........just a thought! My hounding is done, truly!!!! heckkkk looks like its that upper level parking lot.......we better find that table cloth thief guy..........JUST kidding Duane!!! Not trying to cause any Sh**!! I'll be good.

[thudmaster]

No you won't and we would not expect you to be................
