We did bracket racing. I still have one of our old race engines and trani under my bench. Has not run since what, '79? Keep thinking about putting it in something, but then I think of the work involved, storing it,,,, Man, I AM getting old!  :-o
Starting to think about bikes that way too. Got a few new ones. Just check the tires and chain and go. Kind of nice.  :-P

I sold my hot rod to help pay for my business. There are days I kick myself in the butt for that one. Usually right after getting cussed out by a white haired old lady.  :-D
Perhaps I have a dirt bike addiction?

I made it to winternationals last february and I made it to the last race of the season in november. Saw passes at 3.700 hell yea!!! gotta get sean to sign my t shirt from the event. Just gets expensive especially when you're paying for your girls ticket too and of course beers are like 7 or 8 bucks. then food. its an expensive weekend. This weekend I'm not gonna make it down there for winternationals but I sure as hell will be watching. I hope to make it to the race in november and I'm gonna pay a little extra for the tailgating parking place. i want to bring a bbq and all the beer. those guys always look like they're having fun, and its closer to the entrance anyway. maybe we could organize a kxriders tailgate there for the fall.

I used to love Top Fuel and Funny Car! When they went 1000ft I got a little ticked off! I know these guys are back up there again even at 1000ft but where would they be now without that rule change? Does it matter if you wad up at 300mph vs 320mph. You're still going to become particulate matter at either speed. The politicians at the NHRA basically tried to put a speed limit on racing. It's not racing if there's a speed limit. To make an extreme analogy you might as well let the cars sit on the line in neutral with bricks on the accelerator pedals and see who's engine blows first and call that drag racing!
