    HRDW 2018! "The South"

    Just saw this linked on FB.
    Hot Rod Drag Week 2018 dates & locations. And it might not get any closer than this for me.
    I've wanted to do this the last couple years, and I've been saying all year to myself you *have to* for 2018. And now, shazzaam! Atlanta is like 5.5 hours away.

    Here's the link:

    So we should reserve rooms now through that link on the HRDW page?

    I'm gonna have to try and remember to show up for the race in Concord!

    Re: HRDW 2018! "The South"

    I am contemplating it. Probably just get on the waiting list. Likely it will depend on if I am driving or co-piloting at Rocky Mountain Race Week.

    Whoa, slow your roll...
    It's going to take alot of schmoozing if I'm going to get my "permission slip" signed off...
    If i'm interested in permission. ..
    But hopefully i can. We still haven't even had a honeymoon or nice travel trip anywhere due to immigration issues.
    And, i might only be able to do one, SDAC or Drag Week. Not sure i could do both. We'll have to see.

    I think I am going to get on the waiting list again...

    I am definitely running Rocky Mountain Race Week (RMRW), but I am not sure how ready my Shadow will be. My focus right now is finishing the install of the 3.5L V6 (6G74) w/turbo into my son's '89 Daytona (was in the Shadow) so he can run RMRW.

    Once that is done I will begin working on my Shadow. The plan for the Shadow is a 3.8L V6 (6G75) w/Turbo & AWD... For RMRW, I may skip the AWD part or punt all together if it is not running by then. Plan B is my Spirit (6g72 w/turbo) and try to get the Shadow ready for Drag Week... (assuming I have enough vacation left...)

    Long way of saying "maybe"...
