The last couple of years the "Police" patrol has been increasing the pumpkin inspections and warnings but no trouble yet. Hope there budget and participation was reduced this year so we can promote bead/pumpkin trading and 4 wheelers past 10:00pm.

Jerry who? Are you talking about the Jerry I'm thinking about?

Ummm???? maybe...

After all if it wasn't for Jerry and Cheryl I wouldn't be doing this. The debt I owe them I don't think I can repay (same goes for my Crew).

Regardless, best of luck to you.

P.S. If you want you can drive my Super Gas car to practice up on your finish line skills, I'm sure 160 mph won't be quite the same as 200 mph+ but at least it's got doors.

We just need to keep those Chute Lines out from under the Wheelie Bars. That really messes up the Wallet.

Latest news is the Graphics are on, the Rear End will be done at 6:30 pm and I will be sitting in the seat by 8:30 pm for all the final adjustments. Now what to do about working tomorrow??? I feel a slight chill, I may be coming down with something...

Here are some pics (ones I can show) from last year to set the mood.

Mood set, thanks for the pic's Paul. We remember the fun-O-meter fondly and I and my wife alway's contributed to raising the "pointer" though my wife received more of a response.

You might have seen us drive buy, a couple of years ago we painted/vinyled our white surburban to look like a white tiger, hard to miss.

I have a blue EZ GO golf cart with checkered flags on the sides and a chevy bowtie on the front. If you see me cruisin' along stop me, I usually have a cold one in the cooler. Welcome to DBK Racing

Will do Kevin, might have to print out all these discriptions so I can remember who's who. See you there S/W corner of the Zoo, fence side, white suburban.

Big silver canopy, a white one straped to it with our on demand hot water heater shower, and the BIRB (BIR Bus). After you stop by Paul's, swing up the hill and we'll have one. We get there Sunday afternoon and stay at our pal's place (Fast Frank, the firewood guy if THAT rings any bells!), and in right away Mon. Morning. Golf on Tues, drink the rest of the week. Cant wait, stop by!

Mark, no wonder you get such a good spot, setting up Monday morning and all. We don't usually get there until Thursday afternoon. Hot water shower! Now you have my attention. We just baught one of those bag showers for 100 bucks but haven't tested it out yet. It would be nice to have a back up wink, wink. Never met Frank, we bring our own fire wood but I'm sure we've raised our beers as we buzzed by.

I'm sure there are a bunch but never had the ability to count that well while attending BIR Nationals. Couldn't spell or walk that good neither now that I thunk about it.

The ZOO is a great time on of the biggest parties you will every go to!

We'll keep an eye out for ya.

No clue but I'd sure like to know. Actually last year we kind of "forgot" there was band. Started hitting the Crown Royal a wee bit early that day, oops.

Sounds like a heck of an idea. I'm new to Mater but game for meeting new folks and having a good time. How about meeting a the stage side of the bomb fire pit. Any thoughts on a specific time? What time does qualifying generaly get over?
