    70 prostreet. If you or some1 from Mi have a mini meet and give me lots of notice, I will bring my Mav and to tthe track too.I'm seeing if I can get enough people to do a Drag day at St Thomas Drag way this August.Have a bunch of friends show, with any car that meets drag requirements for the speed or times the car does.Then do time trials and then have a bracket elimination.If 30 cars showed and each threw in 10 bucks, then have the top 3 winners go home with a few bucks and a ton of bragging rites. Just a fun day with car nuts.Its just in the thinking stage now but in 1 week I will be talking to the mgr of St Thomas. See what he requires.TTFN Ron:clap:

    Hey Ron, I know Dave that owns the track (I use to work for him) I'll be seeing him in a week or two, I can ask him and see what he requires. Most Saturdays & Sundays are booked with events, but you can always squeeze in with other things. I use to race there regularly in the late 80's.

    Carey: its called-"Run what you brung". So yes you can run ur 6 banger.

    Dave: I will be talking to him this weekend :huh:if he has a display at the Performance World Show. Have just found out it's now 1/8th mile track.Will consider cayuga. also. Both are approx 2 hrs from any border out this way.(southern w ON). Will have to be when other venues are happening as rental of track is very expensive when fully equipped.Just a thought for now.

    We plan on leaving Louisville Sat/Sun.
    Gonna do some site-seeing and what not early in the week. Plan on arriving in JOPLIN on Monday, good Lord willing.


    GENE, Wednesday are usually a greeting day, as people start to arrive; for those that get there and want to do something, we usually have one of the locals figure out a fun activity for all to enjoy.
