I'll arrive no later than Thursday.

Yesterday, Jen, who 'owns' the event, reached out unsolicited to invite me to some private events on Thursday morning, maybe because I'm bringing 3 and did not get VIP parking after paying for it, last year, I dunno... Will call hotel today to see about locking in Wednesday night.

Hey Larry, I made sure to get the drag radials on, and wanted to give you a preview of your angle on Friday, even though I still don't know what the mystery car is:

A few thoughts...

1 - Drag radials.... well aren't you special. Don't forget the drag skinnys on the front.
2 - Thanks for the preview.... I guess!? Like I won't be seeing it enough on Friday at the track. Or will I??
3 - Of course you don't know what it is.... it wouldn't be a mystery car if you knew, would it? Won't be a mystery for much longer though....

See ya in 4 days.

Betting was too one-sided so they closed the wager.

Let the negotiations begin. I'll take 1/7th of a mile and the hit.

You're starting past the finish line??

No hit stuff.... we're running fair and square, off a Sportsman Tree. Rt's matter!

I'll let you deep stage.... that's about it.

Oh yeah... 1/7th is longer... well, it's a good place to start negotiations. Fine then, meet me halfway. 1/14th & the hit?! C'mon man... You were supposed to be showing up in a rental... not a race car!

Regarding negotiations, I'll have my people get in touch with your people (Monica will call Mike).

And it's not a "race car". It's an almost stock, street car. It should match up with Blackjack quite well, I think.

Whatever the outcome, it's gonna be a blast. I'm hoping we can go head-to-head multiple times. Maybe we'll have to do a best of 3, or 5, or 7, or something. Unless I get tired of looking at your shiny taillights.

You said you raced it at NHRA... You're basically bringing a funny car. Do you at least have to shift it?

Only things I see bolted-on are a hood, a grille insert and an air dam.

And a camera, but that's suction-cupped on.

You're funny!

Yea, I shift it.... from park to drive.... then floor it!

I think you're over-thinking things a bit. It's not like I bought last year's John Force car.

Or did I?

Yes, I will be there. Saturday only. I will (probably) be hanging around mostly with the SSP group, and walking around with some of them. I did not supply any additional Fox trivia questions this year. I wonder how many will be recycled from years past.
