The Fast Ford Shootout is still scheduled for this Sunday. Hopefully, we won't feel to much of Irene's wrath. Stay safe guy's and I will update everyone on any changes due to the weather.

We plan on coming as well.

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.

LDELEE 08-25-2011 08:22 PM

Gamblers race
 
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!

ShawnBoyMoody 08-25-2011 08:24 PM

Permit schmirmit. Its better to ask forgiveness than permission lol

LDELEE 08-25-2011 08:33 PM

LOL, sometime the process make you feel like doing just that!

ShawnBoyMoody 08-25-2011 08:37 PM

I bet so. Aggravating dealing with the system lol

jmd 08-26-2011 06:18 AM

huh, fast ford. just don't sound right. :hide: :poke:

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.

LDELEE 08-27-2011 02:51 PM

Dorchester Open Today
 
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.

Matts94Z28 08-29-2011 02:21 AM

CMD did work on some pop-a-wheelies tonight.

Did Mark beat Chris?

WTFWSAT 08-29-2011 08:28 AM

Congrats Tuten for the win!

silver fox 08-29-2011 08:29 AM

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.
