I'm not working that weekend so I should be able to make it but I doubt I'll have enough miles on the new motor to flog it. I do want to see the big Frank/Sid/Arcenio shootout, though!

I also maybe in Champaign...either the 7th-8 or 14-15th. Should know for sure after the April 9th meeting. Oh and I'm going the same route Frank did. First year break in the motor; have some fun. Then over winter talk some trash. The only difference is he is just gonna get his carb tuned on a dyno. I'll be bolting on a supercharger...Sorry Frank we will never let this go!

I knew we could count on Arcenio... He's not scared like Sid and the others.
Is John going to show us the power of the Spyder?
Who else is going?
Mike, Rich, Rich, any more takers?
OH, HOW COULD I FORGET ABOUT LIPSTICK 
Who else is going????

Chris,
Deal me in. Besides, I plan on saving Arcenio's wife Sue from dusting another drag racing trophy.

Hey, that's my birthday! I'll be there because
It's my party and I'll race if want to,
race if I want to,
Race if I want to,
You would race to if it happened to you.....
I'm not sure which car I'm gonna bring. The Spyder is being difficult to tame, so it'll take some time to dial it in.

Haven't run the Spyder yet, still working out the bugs. But I have driven it a few times, and it seems to run real good so we'll see. I plan on bringing it to Bowling Green KY on May 18. Anyway, I'll probably be racing the Cobra at Byron, either way, i'll be there.

The GN Spyder sounds ohh so good! And the smell of race gas...its like crack! John was complaining he can only squeeze out 450 hp at 18psi? Darn.
Hope to see you guys there...I'll be bringing my Mazda!!!

You know I'll be there!!!!! In fact, I'll have Eve (my new daughter) race her stroller and whip all our asses. She's a lot lighter than us and can hook up off the line real good. |

I have a helmet if someone needs one. It is silver! It is my Motorcycle Helmet. I'll bring it to CB in the morning. I sure as heck won' t need it!!!
The guy with the escalade is my boss. He is probably gonna chicken out since it is about 1.5hrs from his place to Bryon.

Alright guys, This is Chris on Wolf's computer. I just checked the weather at 6:30pm on Saturday night. No sign of rain.
Lets get it on.
I will be at the Cracker Barrel before 8:00 to get us a table (they wouldn't hold one over the phone).
Green light means go.
