70 Newport

[newport440]

i'll def let you know if we go up, sounds like my kind of show. In the 90s i belonged to MMCI and we used to have a show at Quaker city dragway in Ohio it was the same kind of show small but good and you could race all day.

If you go to Norwalk this year let me know we are going for sure. It's not as big as Carlisle or the nats, nice laid back show and some great racing, goes way into the night . IMO you won't find better all mopar racing. I'm hoping to run my brother in laws car because mine's not back together, I built it for him using leftovers so I guess can try to blow it up ( not really).

When is it?

They pop up occasionaly, I get excited, I chase them a little bit, I lose out. Repeat every six months or so.

What will you be running? We'll be sure to say hello if we see your pit.

73 challenger like a teal blue color, not sure where I'll be friends of mine usually try to get the corner of fun field before camp ground.

 

[Rattle Trap]

Norwalk's a trip isn't it? Ya can't ever say where you'll be parked or where you'll be @ a given time. You can't get cell signal half the time and if you do somebody else won't have it... But at least txt works and is handy since you can't hear ober open pipe bigblocks anyhow!!! Just say HI to every funny looking couple you see with 3 kids in tow and.you'll run into us eventually..;)

 

[70bigblockdodge]

What will you be driving out of that list

 

[Rattle Trap]

Mama wants to show her chestnut 72 NYB and I'm bringing the street stock looking white Volare with 76s on the doors since it's getting a makeover before it will ever be seen again.

Hey rattle trap (sorry I can't remember names damn a.d.d.) nice to meet you. If your wife wants to get out of that 72 I'd be interested It's a nice looking cruiser without having to worry about every little chip /scratch on it. Didn't do as well as I wanted Friday weather, have to go to work on Monday, only pulled a 14.95 best but what did I really expect out of a basically stock 77 440 with a .509 mp cam street tires. I still had fun.
