Hmm... How close is this place to Harrogate, TN/Middlesboro, KY? My brother lives in Harrogate. I am scheduled to work that Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, but I may be able to get vacation days to cover it. I have two, so I'd have to burn them on Sat and Sun, but I'd have to be at work on Monday at 6:48am.

Put me down as a "definitely maybe".

Yeah, so, after watching the videos I can guarantee I'll make at least one dragstrip pass with the tOwBS.

SteveBricks would expect nothing less of me....

I'm not sure if I'll get my stuff done or not, but I'll make a pass anyhow - because I never have done it and I want to do it.

You fellas are too kind.
Its nice from far but far from nice.
Always a work in progress tho!

Now if I get the mechanical stuff done and by some miracle get the "new" bed body worked and painted and a hood...and...and..and... Then I will agree. For now I will thank you fellas for the kind words!!!


And I have to resurrect the camper also for rre.

I can't wait for next years! Truck will be ready by then for sure, and I'll be able to request some time off to go there.

Looks like Harrogate is about an hour away from Newport where RRE occurs. Not a bad drive. We'd love to have you there, Joseph. The more the merrier.

Yeah, cool. So I could head down to Harrogate Wednesday after work and visit my brother, then head over to RRE Friday. No promises, but I've got my eye on it.
