Went camping this weekend at Talledaga and had a great time



Also got to meet one of my all time favorite NASCAR legends Bill Elliot. This is him signing my FORD hat.



He had just rolled into inspection after qualifying.

Been drivin my old Econoline around and what I've learned, I HATE DRUM BRAKES!! I have a new master cylinder, it's bled out and they are functioning fine, they suck, I forgot that when dealing with dads 75 F-150 4x4, power or not, they still suck.

You ought to know me better than that. I don't leave home without them. LOL

We used to buy tickets the day of the race for $20 - $25.
Camped on the old runway and out in the adjacent fields.
Slept under my car several times.


Good morning to all of you guys. The cold is headed this way. In the upper 40's to low 50's this morning but will be in the 20's in a couple days.
Snow showers start Friday and will continue thru to Saturday morning.
