If anyone is interested this Saturday is drive the track day at Ky. Speedway. There are a few FTE guys around the area now so I thought I would let you know. Buy 40 dollars in the gift shop and get three laps on the track, of course you have a pace car(about 80-85) and believe me that is fast for our old trucks and Homade handles really well but it is still scary. Truxx1956 is coming up this weekend and I want to take him out if all goes well. If anyone goes lets get together, Garry.

 

I'm certainly interested, it sounds like a blast! Maybe if I leave now... ;-)

 

Sounds like fun. Someday I will get over to the KY Speedway with my truck.

Whoo Hooo!!!! I love you Garry!!!

 

Truxx, you just want to drive HOMADE around the race track,well OK, I'll let ya.

 

Hey guys, here's some of the pics from Garry and me driving "Homade" around the Ky motor Speedway. It was a BLAST!!! Thanks Garry

 

Here's another pic.

 

Another one.

 

Here's the last one. We got to run about 90MPH around the track. Garry didn't trust my driving so he put the seat belt on. If we'd been in my truck we wouldn't have had seatbelts. We dont need no stinkin seatbelts

 

Woohooo!!! Looks like a blast. I'm just glad you guys didn't end up making that set of skid marks ending at the wall in that second picture.

 

No skidmarks into the wall but Garry might have some in his drawers? His eyes were pretty big when I was driving. I was doing my "Tim Taylor" grunt while driving

 

Doc, you are not near as glad as me, but Truxx cried like a little baby so I had to let him drive to shut him up, what a baby he is if he don't get his way but we did have a great day, Garry

 

Was that red truck there to set the pace ? I would have had to pass his a$$ !!!! What they going too do ? Take your b-day away. Man dude that truck sure looks good rounding that track. U DA MAN

 

Fred, ya, it's a pace truck and I don't want to pi$$ them off cause I only live 3 miles from the track and usually anything they have going on I get free cause I have 2 neighbors that work there and they take good care of me on things like that. I'll be a good little boy besides I don't think I'd want to run much over 90/95 in HOMADE, ever look close at the black marks, I'd say a crash in HOMADE would really ruin my day.

 

Hey Dale! Didn't I see you at Talladega a long time ago?

Sorry man. My mind is just twisted today, and God only knows why I remembered that. I couldn't resist.

When I lived in Bristol, they would leave the gate open to the track pretty much every day during the "off-season" because there was a little snack bar type place in the infield for the employees/community. We were SUPPOSED to just drive across turn 3 into the infield. One day I couldn't resist. I was in my F-150. Wheeee!! I didn't go very fast, but it was a blast! Then I got the hell out of there.
