Dave and Dan, I will talk to Dan about setting aside an area for us. He has told me that it's first come first serve, but he did say he would do anything for us. I will ask him and his club maybe being the impartial judge for us. Is that ok with everyone?
Glad to have you on board Mick. We are going to have a great time.

Paul,
I don't think we need to have a judge for show cars. We don't judge them at Thompson, just park them for everyone to enjoy, but we could go either way ? The cars will draw a crowd by themselves. I plan to show and race, depending on how things go. Only race for the fun and challenge, don't push too hard, because I can't afford to break something 800 miles from home !
Looks like we are getting a good crowd and it should be a great time !!!

Paul, You misunderstood my post. I was giving you a hard time.... Are we having a shoot out or a shout out....:? Look at the title to this thread and then you will understand....
They say I should never drink and tiepee

We do have big voices out west!!
Paul.................just a suggestion............NIX the judges. It just makes for hard feelings and normally nothing very positive comes from this. Especially if DQ doesn't win People's Choice and Candy doesn't win Best Ridden!!!!
We have too much fun to screw it all up with a "contest".

I would like to see all our cars together..... it makes it a lot easier to BS with each other if you don't have to walk to the other side of the pits. We can share a BBQ easier or whatever. More people will come to look. If we have to maybe some could get there a day early to help save spaces. That worked at Thompson, although the track did let Ray keep quite an area for us.
Do what you can Paul.
I agree totally......... It's fun event, we all know cars and will have our own favorite, it doesn't matter who gets the trophy someone will be upset :argue: and will not come back next year.
Phil.......... be very very careful, we may need a trophy for best beaten.
but then again it could be the hit of the show.

Ok, no judges. Dave had me confussed because I had never heard mention of any judging at Thompson. turned out he was commenting on my spelling ability.
Good one Dave.
I'm glad to hear from the Willows group. How many cars do you anticipate be in Eureka? I want to keep Dan (Samoa Dragstrip Prez) updated on our group. I will be calling him in a couple of weeks to give him the update.

Ok, I want to put a call out to another great racer with a fantastic '62 Bel Air to come to Eureka.
Will Zoric if you are out there, I hope you can come and join us for the West Coast 409 Shootout. I checked the Super Shifter series schedule and you are free that weekend.

Yeah,, Getting to an even on the other side of the county is tough ,, and expensive to say the least.
Having a gathering on each coast is a blessing so we can gather without going broke.
I hope to make the West Coast gathering if I can find some work or win the Lotto before then.
I would like to take my `62 but if all else fails I`ll ride down.
Hope this becomes a anual event then I might just make it with the car,,,
We will have a parking area for everyone in the pit area. I plan on arriving around noon Friday the 26th. I think our car count is 22, if everyone can make it. And Phil and Candy will be there too. I am really looking forward to meeting everyone and doing some good ole' racing.
