Going to see if it will get better over the weekend.

Sprntr and the 43 crew, get that checkered flag and have a cold one on me.

Everyone, please be safe traveling this weekend and I pray everyone has a safe and fun race.
Sorry to hear of your injury. Heal quick! We'll miss you at DuQuoin, we'll just have to catch you down the road. Do you plan on going to Indy for either the IMIS show in December or for the Swap Meet in January? Thanks for the good wishes, I'm sure Tony will be up on the wheel!

I plan on healing quick, the leg well that has it's own agenda it seems. I wil have to get the dates for the Indy shows. I know for sure that the Rumble series will be on my schedule. Missed it last year thanks to our wonderful economy. It's fun watching the races, it's even more fun watching the celebrations afterwards.

I see Tony won't be driving. Brad Kuhn is a hell of a damn good driver.

How about giving BK some of that Free beer with a top 5 in that sc ride? You know he is used to getting cases of Miller products on Sundays anyway.

Heard that he has the biggest/baddest Sam Jones engine ever in that car.
