What happened Edgar? Did the RED SLED go down? I am telling you, you need a 427 - twin turbo w/meth. Then come over to the 11.50.

don't know if any thing happened..only know it puffed some smoke. Sending it to the doctors today or tomorrow. Only need the 427 that is in it and no more

Rob...go to NMCA board and see my thread...someone leaked the NMCA Schedule. It is not official but it encompasses every rumor i have heard thus far and the good news is the rumor is a return to best 5 of 7 for the points...

Hi Edgar,

I had not converted it to digital because my video job wasn't too great on this pass. But, I made a clip this morning and uploaded it to Youtube for you...

Oh I like that rumor...I think other series should maybe adopt that one as well (hint hint best 8 out of 10 hint hint ).

Yes that is a good idea and so is the one that no driver shall enter an 11.50 index unless he is drives a yellow c6 and is named Marc

Nah that's a horrible idea, I want at least some competition plus we need the class to survive.
Just a simple rule that bans all green (and sometimes white), pewter and purple (oops, I meant Radar Blue ) C5s from competing in the 11.50s will work just fine.

Unacceptable! Only one Marc (with a 'C') per yellow C6 permitted.

Meet up at the Red Lion Diner (Rt 206 circle) ?
Around 8:00-8:30? or 9:00?
We won't even get on the track to close to 11 so breakfast is good!
