MisterCMK.......Rock Falls on saturday? Would work out perfect for me if you have the time.

Rock Falls Raceway

Rock Falls is only 1/2 the distance as Interstate. Anyone else without spark plugs that wants to make my new 6.2 look bad come on out and put me in my place. We'll see how bad a$$ those studded 6-oh-nos really are.
hmmmm.... I wanna watch this...


Morning Fellas. anyone finish there to do lists last weekend?

Time slip from any track on any day would work for comparison. Doesn't have to be this weekend. Maybe it will be another day if Chris can't make it. It's always more fun when I'm not the only doorknob pounding my stuff.

Mike has posted that one before Dustin. It's been repaired. It has the wrong grill and the bumper doesn't fit right.

Good morning guys!

I will have to go back and catch up as I haven't been on all weekend. We were suppose to be camping this weekend but that fell through so on Saturday we went to Fort Sisseston in SD for there festival. It was pretty cool since I haven't been there since I was like 12. Then when we got back we took the boat to test it out but didn't get it off the trailer. After I backed it in I thought I heard something and looked in back and there was water running in like crazy. Turns out the rubber boot where the shift cable goes through was cracked and tore letting water in. Cheap enough fix and shouldn't be too hard I don't think to replace. So that part will be here tomorrow. Still went to the lake yesterday and just hung out and then did some landscaping last night at home when we got back home.
