Default The Beaver Rental is Confirmed...

Nice title

After polling a few possible participants, the planned date is now confirmed. (Sorry Jim and Neil)

Last Years Event

Date: Friday April 28th
Time: 10-4, then 5-9 T&T Eliminations at 9
Place: Beaver Springs Dragway.
Who: Everyone who wants to show up
Price: $70
Price includes both lanes prepped, overnight camping if you're a camper and admission to Friday nights bracket racing session.

I'm trying to get a count on who can come. If you plan on coming or might come please let me know. If you decide to come at the last minute that is fine too. We had over 25 cars last year, we are hoping 25-35 again. The more the merrier

This is a perfect time for some of the Corvette Challenge guys to run some grudge matches. I know, I know, "it's too far "

Participants: (Probable until confirmed)
Dave.........................2005 C6 (Confirmed)
Korreck (Moved Away)
Ron (Too far)
Doug ..............................(Confirmed )
Pete (Probable)
Jesse (Probable)
Edgar ..............................(Confirmed )

Oh, geeze, thanks. I must have forgot it when my wheel lock broke.
I'll be there on the 15th if you remember it, I'll pick it up then.
It would be great if you showed up on the 28th, you can relax, and only race, I'll take all the pictures and videos

Neil, I'm pretty sure we'll do another day in the fall.

Ron, well, I predicted your response, but as I said last year, you could making a killing out there making dentures

Alan, you and your brother have been added.

Sorry Dave. 3 hours each way to race is a tough one for me to do. Sounds like a blast & a bargain though!

Cya-vett,
D@mn, Nice pics - you should have asked someone to take pics of your baby.
Any chance of sending me pics of the lowly blue 85?

If so - vet85us@yahoo.com

Thanks,

Wish I could make the first run.

You can right click on the pics, select "save as" then put them on your local PC.
I think thats all I have of you, but I'll check tomorrow to see if there are any more. If I find more I'll email them to you.

Ron,

I was with Dave at the first time we tried this two years ago. It was fantastic!!

Great track, long run off. Beaver Bob as easy going as it gets. If there is any way to swing this I promise you that would not regret it!

I hope you can make it & I have the twins ready.
