Still a lot to do getting the trailer up the hill and getting the motorhome hooked up to it. Then I can load enough clothes, food, and water for a four day weekend. Lord willing Ace race here we come. First race of the year and I’m out playing with the big boys and girls. What the heck it only hard made money.

Great to hear you feel good about this race. Keep her straight and God's speed! 65'
 
I'd bet you'd be really happy to win, maybe you should do that.
 
Does that mean you got a chance to win $60 grand ?

There’s usually a split somewhere along the line if the guys agree on it. There’s also a gamblers race or two but three big races in three days is enough for this oldman. But yes 20,000.00 per day.
 
Well then, good luck to you, sir.

It’s a tough game but I enjoy it. Your up against guys that double enter and at 150.00 a clip buy back both entries if they have too. Many travel and race 12 months a year, send their engines and transmissions out to get freshened yearly, and if not racing travel to other states for practice tree events. But I enjoy it still so why not. I have to know by the end of June if I’m going to Norwalk for the 40,000.00 race. I’ve ran it for the last few years so we have first dips on buying an entry. They played with the tree last year out there and it really messed with my head.

Win some of that money, let's go!
 
Agree on the “Big guns” with all the equipment and the big motor coaches..!! BUT as you know in this sport it can anyones day..!! I have watched many heavy hitters scratching their heads, saying HOW is this guy doing it..!! Keep it straight consistent and focus on YOUR lane..!! Best of luck..!! Swingn’
 
Good luck this weekend and don't forget everyone can watch this race free on motormania TV on youtube
 
That’s the hardest part and one of the reasons I tow with my truck most of the time. It’s a son of a gun hooking the motorhome up to the car trailer on this hillside by yourself. For some reason the backup camera I bought subscription expired so I couldn’t even use my camera. But it’s done and time to head to Walmart

As Timmy V has said “When it’s your day it’s your day, doesn’t matter what you dial is, what your light is, how much stripe you take etc” lol

Good luck John
