Doc Holliday testing in Iowa

Heard Doc was at Earlville running what he discribed as an "old chassis that was laying around the shop", but looked suspiciously like a Wilk chassis from a couple years back, any confirmations ?

It's a 1985 Tony Casarez (r.i.p.) car. Still the original pipe, it is .095 & .083 with a .125 roll bar. This was the same design that he used for the Blue Max and the Snake in the 80's for match racing on less than perfect tracks.

Jerry... just a word of advise: make sure you race randy in a state with very strict turn signal laws.

just trying to save you some paint work bro

Doggone it dude... I recently got a $123.00 ticket for unsafe lane change because I didn't use a turn signal before I changed lanes to avoid a couple very slow moving vehicles that turned onto the highway from side roads. One into the right lane in front of me and the into the left lane.

The cop was peeved because she had to brake hard before she could speed up to pull me over. One top of it, right after she pulled out of the parking lot she cut off a faster moving vehicle as she moved from the left lane into the right.




You guessed it, she did not use a signal before she started changing lanes.

Sean B,

How many times do I have to tell you. The lane markers are more like "SUGGESTIONS" rather than actual boundries.

Randy,
AA/FA's have no lane restrictions on them

But you knew that already!!!

They also don't listen very well sometimes

Hopefully we can stay in front, and Doc won"t get to see the rest of the Randy show .
We need those foam blocks to get a time before Randy abuses them.

Jerry,

I hope that isn't the case!

Just to be fair to Doc, I will volunteer to leave first and lead for the first 1/4 mile. Then Doc can come on around and I will let him lead the way into the shut down area. That way we both can claim we had the lead!

I do believe the "Kansas City Cone Killer" has confused himself with Ol' Rapid
