Bakersfield CHRR!

Ok, it'll be my first time out there. Who is going? Where and when are the Mater Meetings? Who will be at the Doubletree Friday night? (I will!) How about a meeting there? Oh, and how is traffic from LAX to Bakersfield around noon LA time, on Friday? Hope I don't get lost! Hell, I'm too damned old to get this nervous!

Ok...just breathe deep and often Bob. This is my 15th out of a possible 15 and I've survived...so far. Leaving at noon should get you the best possible traffic. If there are no more fire you should be good. Ever been to The Patch before? Getting there is fairly easy by these two routes. Take 99 North to Woody Famoso Road and go right towards the track...a few miles. Or, take the Porterville turnoff to Woody Famoso and turn Left.

I'll be in the tower all weekend covering the event for www.dragracecentral.com. Stop by and say hey!

Darryl

Thanks guys! But alas, we fly to Honolulu on Sunday! I'm lucky to get to Bakersfield at all, but I'll take it! I had to throw Hawaii in for the you-know-who!

Will be thinking of you all. Have a great time Bob and take pictures. You guys in the tower, be sure not to tease Bob to much. Enjoy Hawaii if you must.

Planning on being there also. Not sure what day.
Is it true the NF/C's will be doing a Chicago style show on Sunday?

The N/FC's will be putting on a Chicago-style show on Sunday ONLY.

No N/FC's are allowed to run prior to the Sunday show.

Mike,
I believe they are $24.95 with a portion of the proceeds going directly to the museum.
The DVD will be available at the NHRA booth as well as the Full Throttle News Booth.
We also have the limited edition Tee shirt with the movie poster on the back, those will be at my trailer, Eddie Camp Racing 713 A/FUEL (NOT T/F)...

Jerry
