Hey Smitty...or anyone else...What would you like to call this race? It be happening on the 4th of July weekend. I used  like that the Nascar race used to be called the Firecracker 400...something like that, maybe?

who's slapping together a hot rod[s] for this race  ? ...

 the sloppies are adding a set of [10 pce.] clock maker's files to the prize pool...

Thanks Smitty! That's cool...little files come in really handy!

This ought to be a fun one, and it will start as the Bare Muscle 3 race ends, so there will be a cross-over of the two events. I'm sensing a BIG weekend of racing coming up this 4th of July!!


  • burgers and dogs and hot rods .... mmmmmm... — fordman
