Well, the track owner says he is leaving it as any tire you want to run on the 17th.

Well Brandon, you can throw me into the Gentleman's agreement. I'll only run the CS27 premounts too. I think I'll start this weekend if I can find a new set. This'll make my life easier for now. (No more magic tires Anthony ) Catch yall there.

Weather looks great for the 3rd for club racing. Should be fast guys at the wood this weekend.

JMac- Since you look like your not going to nats, wanna run some mod this weekend for fun, whatever tire. Beasley looks like a possible for Sunday for mod also, you gonna make Durham Sunday with us as well?

Mod? What's that? haha. I'll run whatever you want. Not sure yet on Durham. Depends if I have a vistor this weekend or not. Plus I was gonna drive up to Boston this weekend. But I don't really feel like it. Holiday+Traffic+gas prices+11 hour drive= pain in the arse.

Anyways, you talking about Mod at Durham? Or Mod at Rosewood? Or both? Would be interesting to see how a plastic car handles Mod.. Let me know so I can get the right setup on the right car. Or else I'm stuck running Stock.

Don't quite rule me out for the Nats just yet.. hehe...

Hey guys, unless this gas thing gets under some level of control, i am definitely not going. Its 3.50 a gallon here, and they say it will get worse before better. Thats over 100$ that weekend just in gas.

What are you driving? LOL Its 2hrs for me and I can go and come back home and go back to Durham 1hr. away and Home again on 1 tank of gas!

So 15 gallons at $3.50 a gallon is $53.

And I am driving a 315 hp V-8 Cobra!

Ride with KT and it shouldn't cost ya more than $40 bucks in gas.

But I feel your pain! I am staying over to race this Sunday because getting a room is cheaper than gas!!!!!

But that is what happens when we have a "Gas Man" for Pres.

Last time i went to Durham it was a 4 hour ride. 60 mph X 4 = 240 miles... one way. Admittedly my car doesnt have the power yours does, but with the A/C all i get is 300 a tank (15 gallons). No A/C gives me 400. So basically i would need one and a half tanks minimum to go round trip, assuming i drive nowhere else (who needs food), PLUS hotel. So thats 80$ in gas, $80 on a room, and god knows what on food. The only really good thing id be missin out on is hangin out with the guys. I can turn laps here, save $200, get a home cooked meal, and stay in my own bed... with the wife!

Sorry fellas... the curvaceous splendor wins.
