HOT ROD Drag Week is five-day competition event where drivers must subject their street-legal drag cars to road trips between daily drag racing events.

I'm in process if motel hunting. Any recommendations for cheap and within 15-20 minutes?

Edit - didn't see Bruce's post

Depending on my time off available I'll probably be there for the day to spectate at Byron IL.

Stay away from Kalamazoo. There is a crowd there that really likes G body’s if you know what I mean.

Here is a good option. It’s North from Martin right off the highway.

Still waiting for the hitch, but we are getting closer!

I foresee the free jet ski trailer undergoing a transformation.

Awaiting a ‘67 442 as well 😉

A week from today we'll be headed out.

Hope to see all possible - vanrah, L92, 81cutlass and anyone else - get to a track. Bruce, Ben and I plan to attend. I'm pulling for my junk to stick together. Thrashing for the past month is an understatement - my wife thinks I'm not living here anymore lol. My list is getting short - building a driveable exhaust, trying to gerry up an ARB somehow and still need to paint. I'm quite confident that Monte Alban is going to look like it has less money in the entire car than most of the rest of the field has in their heads and paint lol. But I'm going to have FUN!!!!!!

Hope to see all that can make it.

p.s. - if I can make it to the last day then I'm going to put it on C16 and TURN IT UP!!!!


Vanrah - you out there?

 

[64nailhead]

We’ve made it.
Bruce is close behind.
Some assembly required for the trailer tomorrow.

2 freakin’ years of waiting!!!!

I really hope I can make it to the last day.

 

[81cutlass]

I gotta ask, what is the Alban part of the car name mean? Nod to Albany NY?

Best of luck! I'll see you in Byron Thursday!

Holy crap - it's one colour! But, it still has those stupid stickers on it.

Full send, my friend. Best of luck!
