    I Like 1/4 because I can use all 4 gears. To me banging gears is the most fun. You sissy stick drivers wouldnt understand. :D

    I talked to the Booker's (own Windy Hollow) last night.

    They have done some work on the track:
    Moved the burnout box back and redone the return road (supposed to be smooooooth now) and a few other nick-nacks.
    I am going down there in April to race, I will let you guys know how it is. (y)

    I agree with you Dennis!(y)
    1/8 mi is just over way to quik. I want to atleast get up to 75 mph maybe!:rolleyes:
    1/8 mi I might only get to 40 mph:49: :biglaugh:
    What are we going to do? 1/8 or 1/4:confused:

    Oh, and hopefully I will have the Stallion done so a I can bring it also and bang some gears with ya Dennis! Just not as fast or as many gears.:hmmm: (y)

    We could race to the finish line and back. That would give us a 1/4 mile.

    Another idea : Have a "Powder Puff" race????

    The only drawback is, sometimes they beat our e.t. and then we have to hear about it for years. :(
