Yes they can. But not all at the same table.

John,

I got your reservation allready... you made it a while ago Have you down for Saturday, 2 beds non smoking. Let me know if there are any changes.

Anyone else... just PM me with your name, address, 1 or 2 beds, smoking or non smoking... the rate is $39,- for all you crossfiries (if there is even a word for it ) So far we have eleven crossfires staying overnight on Saturday at the motel 6 (some stay Friday also)

Eric

Don't even mention the "R" word.

In the event of rain, they will still run but slow things down on the track. If there is a big chance of rain in the forecast, I'll post it up in the original post so those making the long trip will know.

Good idea. I had the rain following me the whole way home last time but made it before it hit.

Maybe if we all plead together?????

Dan has volunteered to help me get Gary and Victor back to the airport on Sunday. Will one of you local folks meet at the motel and go with me to pick them up on Friday evening, please?

Gary that's cool. Viktor this is a once in a life time trip, record it well in your mind. You should get school credit if you do a report with pics and make all the other students envious. Looking for ward to meeting you.

Välkommen Viktor, jag hoppas du njuter själv. Ta massor av bilder och increse hastigheten lite varje gång du berätta historien - haha

Sheppard Smith had a feaure report on the TMS tonite on FOX.
They were showing the 1/8 mile drag strip being used by the public to get street racers off the streets.

Wonder if we will be able to use the drag track?

I hope featuring the idea on FOX doesn't spoil it for some.
