My prediction is that I will never get my Trailer out of the snow for spring.


your so right hal...it is quite possible this snow will be around still for our first race!


also, watch your roofs guys, there has already been problems in our area....get a roof rake!



Funny you mentioned that, I remember years ago when we still had a track on long island, racing in March with snow still on the ground. I also remember the piece of rebar that was exposed in the bleach box. Man I miss the dumpy track.

Hey Shawn, that's kind of illegal in this state. I saw a tractor trailer get pulled over Friday with chunks of ice and snow flying off it on I-91.

Yea sure Shawn, Here in CT the police have Hemi Chargers probably good for 145 mph. You know what I mean. cop mill, cop tires, cop brakes. I doubt your rig could outrun them.

Reminds me of the fastest tow rig I ever heard of. Back in the 80's Dave LeBrun used to go flying by us on the way to NED and then fly by us going home He had a Chevy ramp truck with one Camaro on the back and another on a trailer behind. I was white nuckles going 75. He would pass us like we were standing still. Legend has it that he was clocked somewhere down south at over 100mph :runaway

Yeah, thats right Hal... reminds me of back in the late 70"s when I was running blocker for my friend Cledus. We had to go from Georgia to Texas and back hauling 400 cases of Coors beer with only 28 hours to do it in. It was a long way to go and a short time to get there..... :cheers
