Did yall get your issues fixed with the burned meter base on the power pole that feeds the ticket booth and the rest of the timing system?

lol, I actually had to go meet him for some tires. The box was burnt up pretty good, but he was finishing up the new one when I left. Should be good to go.

Your absolutely right! I looked at it Sunday night. Was trying to figure out a way for us to have some power. Just didn't have my high voltage gloves with me. Now we will just have to wait for the power company to come and set the meter.

I know it's last minute, but it seems as if Sunday is looking pretty good weather wise. If there is enough interest, we will have a gamblers race this Sunday along with the Fast Ford Shootout. Track will throw in a few dollars to the purse. @ Chillerman, I never imagine something so simple could be so difficult. Had to get parts, permit and wait on SCE&G to come out. Hope we never see that problem again!

Unfortunately the power company had already taken the meter out and did not notify track officials of their actions. They discovered the issue not until Sunday afternoon. They didn't have a choice but to get a permit, since it required isolating the power source or unless the electrician did it hot.

We will be open today from 6 until for test and tune. The track is rented out for today for a bike event. But, if anybody want to make a few passes car and driver get in FREE.

Why not? It's not like you are going to look any MORE retarded than you already do. Plus I'd rather you be out in front in case the car comes apart again. I'd hate to scratch my paint.

Chris beat Mark. Mark lost traction. Chris started spinning he shift to high gear and the rest was history. I think Mark goal was to beat Wes. Wes blew the tires off from home but a win is a win.

I thought wes got out of it bc mark was about to come down on his trunk. Id like to see that race again with the lanes switched.

That don't make no sense. If a car is going to hit you in the ass you don't get out of it because that car will run over you. You speed up to get out of the way. I heard Wes had shifter problem. A win is a win no matter how you get it. It will be interesting at the next shootout. Oh forgot good luck on the sale of your motor.

Wes made a perfect pass after that right before Tuten and king raced, Kings car was pulling to the right as he almost hit the wall against Tuten.

First of all congrats to Tuten on the win and Mark on the runner up.
I lifted against Mark because I thought he crossed the center line. I was wrong and that was just driver error on my part. He did a great job keeping it in his lane. Thanks for a good race and I look forward to the next one.
As far as shifter problems, etc I didn't have any- I think you are thinking about the Fallen 9 car.

I just want to say thanks to everybody that came out last night. Hope everyone enjoyed it as much as I did. Congratulations, goes out to Chris Tuten and Mark King. And to all that entered the race, you guys put on one heck of a show. Mark you definately have that Crazy Horse bucking. Wes was running strong as well. Robert Holton you displayed excellent sportsmanship by giving Tuten extra time to get into the lights before you staged. Even with the probabilty of knowing he was probably a little faster than you. That was a real class act! The race between you and him was one of the most exciting of the night, as you left on him and he had to give that small block everything he had to get back around you. He must have caught you just as yall entered the traps. Slowgreen nice to see your car back out. Car looked better than ever! Last night looked like Ford Country as there was nothig but Mustangs in the house. Overall, it was a great race and most importantly everyone was safe. Can't wait til the next one!

Id gladly enter the next one, and maybe there will be a slower car in the field lol. But I must say, if yal keep the track working like last night, ill gladly show my face every Sunday without hesitation, and I would expect your fan/car count to dramatically increase. Good job Dorchester on a great night.

Tuten's 302 did ok. And make it three slower cars. I will have mine back out. Drove around the Island in it today and found a couple of things I need to change but it will soon be ready drive to the track.

i was talking to a few people today about the race that me and wes ran and there are a few people that dont know there ass from a hole in the ground. one person is superman (aka) buddy holten. all he wants to do in life is put people down about everything they try to do. he is telling people that i almost took wes out on that run we had. and guess what i video taped every pass with that car. and i have it on video that i didnt cross the line and about took wes out in fact it shows wes other stage of nos coming on and him spinning the tires and him getting loose and all out of shape. so to the people that dont know what there talking about need to just dont say anything.. the vidoe will be on you tube so every one can see what happened . wes let off and gave me the race..

We had a great time as well. The Smith Bros. mustang was not running right on the spray which is why I didn't enter the race. Maybe I can get the gremlins tuned out of it this week-end at the track. Made some changes to the car tonight that should hopefully fix it!
