    So if we get washed out by those d-bags with the money, who would want to make the drive further south to NC?
    At this point I'm still waiting for the van work to be completed since it snowballed into being a bit more involved.
    But. The tracks in NC are open all year really, weather permitting. So we could have a fun day in Oct or Nov with probably very good results.
    I can see what they run for a track rental also, and i'm sure it would be cheaper than we think.

    That would be a damn long haul for me, I wouldn't be able to make that. Has anybody ever checked Lebanon Valley?

    I know it is too far south for the New Englanders.
    But we have good racing down here while you all are shoveling snow!
    I didn't think many would take me up on the offer, but I wanted to throw it out there.

    It would be cool for me, I was stationed at FT. Bragg for 4 years in the 82nd Airborne back in the very early 90's, haven't been back since. I wonder if Peadon's and Annebelles are still open?

    How about Capitol Raceway in Crofton, MD? Let's move it there. I heard the track is under new management and is much improved. Track was repaved as well.

    Sorry for the bad news, everybody. While the ABM nats was crowded the past few years, and a bit spendy (although, it was a fundraising event) one of the advantages to tagging onto a larger event was date stability.
    I know myself and a few other locals are planning to go out at least a couple times more this season, I'll keep everybody in the loop.

    Anyone have experience with Island Dragway in NJ? http://www.islanddragway.com The 28th is a test and tune from 12-5, but its also a rain date for a bike event.

    A few New England people should be going 10/21 no matter what.

    10/28 is listed as Test and Tune for LVD

    10/21 is Mopar day at Lebanon Valley Dragway in NY.... actually it is a two day event this year. I just plan on going on the Saturday. Everyone should come up and race there. Nice track and plenty of pit area.

    Sorry guys running the ABM Nats was getting to be too much work and too stressful for me to continue. I always appreciated the support of the Turbo Mopars and enjoyed watching you guys run. Johnny Lightning Performance took over my rental and has changed the name to JLP Fall Drag Day. All of you are still invited but he has changed up the format. It's still an open run all day event, there is no prepay needed, but he has raised the price to $65 per car. IMHO there will be less cars since it is not promoted like I did and the cost is higher. Just wanted you guys to know you are still welcome to attend.

    Thank you sir. I had reached out to somebody that appeared to be involved with JLP but didn't get a response. Good to know we are welcome! And we appreciate the work you put into the ABM nats. It was a fun event, and I hope an effective fund raiser.

    So are we doing this?! $65 is fine for me, especially for "Open Run all day". What say you men?!
