Hmmm, it doesn't say anything about the first through third finishing cars in each class getting to register early.  Wonder if they've quit that, or if we will just get an email or something...

Are you planning on going this year Jay?

Thanks for the update, Alan. I've had lots of stuff going on, mostly not good, and haven't had the time to keep updated. Much appreciation for the info. Now I need to find my info cheat sheet from last year.

One way or the other, I will be there.

I note, and comment with EXTREME sarcasm, that they say with seeming glee, "We gonna get your money and we NOT gonna give it back no matter what!"

It is mind boggling how many people register ( and pay ) and can't make it. Hot Rod makes a significant amount of money off them. I've also been amazed seeing a couple people on other forums that have paid multiple times and not gone. I'm not putting down their efforts since I've seen the thrash first hand that goes into getting there, just an observation.

It sounds like Jay is volunteering to be a Trunk Monkey if his car can't make it. Maybe he'll be changing tires on the Road Pillow...

Joel,  If Jay becomes the trunk monkey make sure your wheel studs are well lubed with anti-sieze. Since you are coming back to my local tracks, Double Shrimp for everyone!

You know, I'm kinda missing the Mach 1

I got the early registration email and am now registered for Drag Week 2017!  No trunk monkeying for me, Hemi Joel!

I'll drive it for Jay, if it means that much to you... I'll try not to break it, unlike that last guy he let drive it.

[jayb]

Right, the last guy shifted to neutral instead of second...

Didn't he disobey orders and use the trans brake also?

[jayb]

Yes, might be why he stripped the ring and pinion out of the car...
