« on: March 07, 2007 - 04:15:51 PM »
The local track opens April 1st "weather permitting"-sometimes snow or heavy rain postpones it a week or two.Show/cruise night season starts sometime around mid April-May.Won`t be long now and I have lots to do,engine still needs to go to the machine shop!  :22yikes:  When do your events start up?

march 17 assuming the track is finished. Some repairs are being made, and last I head there was a large section of track missing and is being filled with concrete. This year I am the head tech inspector for my track, I was volunteered by my fiancées and a friend of mine (who happens to be the track manager). I can't complain though, I get paid, I get in to every event for free, and I get to race for free after completion of teching all cars. Should be a fun season. I think we have slant six races twice this year. Last year we had some that I think were in the 10's.

As far as car shows are concerned, i think I have one of those that Saturday as well.

  Here in Boise, Id. the 35th annual roadster show starts this Thursday-Sunday. This kinda starts things around here with the local race track opening around the first of April. Last year Triple Black Hemi had his 71 in the show wich was very cool as there is usually not a lot of mopars. The weather is also starting to change--low 60's the last couple of days. Time to get remotivated on working on mine.
