Ummmm.....Debbie you expect me to drive RROCK the day of my 40th birthday? That will be interesting!! :D



edit:...I realized today that I read it wrong...this is ON my 40th birthday.

Ummmm.....Debbie you expect me to drive RROCK the day after my 40th birthday? That will be interesting!! :D

You should probably just retire being that old! I don't know if you will be able to handle the stress. :flipoff2:

Come on what about stock mod 1 or street stock. I was just starting to like the fact that i could compete both days. I think ken will agree more bang for your buck. wondering why you decided to go to one day events. and why you cut a class with out adding one.

If there is going to be a street stock final held at hannibal. I think there should be a street stock class at Rrock. just my thoughts

What if there is 10 or 15 teams interested in trying a street stock class. is there a chance it could be added. Just wanting to know so i can start recruting. I am very serious about this I want a class that I will be able to compete with my FJC. Its is in the shop right now getting a 9" rear axle and long arm kit made.

Street Stock: must be registered vehical
must retain stock body pannels (x o ok)
35" or smaller tires
Stock wheel base
Any suspension as long as it is avalibale in the aftermarket.
( You must be able to purcase it) no one off stuff
must retain 80% stock interior
SAS ok as long as it is avalibale to the general public
aftermarket T-cases ok
motor swaps ok as long as they are in stock location.

Basically i'm suggesting something like mike and chas's jeep

let me know what you think debbie and tom, I think this could be one of your bigger classes.

Digger, Tom has been trying to call your cell for a week.
It says that you are not currently taking calls.
I also sent you a message on My Space.
Please call Tom when you get a chance.
217-242-3375.

Thanks,
Debbie

kinda sucks that they're cutting digger out! He's been the number one supporter of RROCK

Isn't it something like competed in EVERY RROCK since it's start and now the class is cut? OUCH


Plus aren't you gonna be cutting into your judges pool - didn't guys that run sunday judge sat?

My yota should qualify for this then! Tom doesn't think so but it fits

Looks like a cool schedule. I like the integration of the two different one day events. If our junk's together we'll probably run RROCK on Sunday after the rock race.

91blaze They didn't cut me out i had already toll tom that i will be turning the digger back into a 2 seater for next year.

I just want a place to compete in the 07 FJC with out distroying it

Heck yeah, that fits the toyota perfectly. Let's get it on in the street stock class. Heck, even if we have to take it on the road, we're in.

Guess we would fall under that class also. I think derek would also. other than the registration part. But he could add a couple things and be right there.

I like the schedule change. The one day comps is cheaper for us. BUT what about us teams that run two classes now we are made to run only one. I can think of at least three other teams this affects Blume, Grady, Thornton. Are there going to be rule changes for 2008?

Hopefully going to meet up with the Gradys to day out here in SEMA we have had a blast out here so far. Two more days of insanity to go.

Not excited to talk to the wife about our 10th anniversary being celebrated at the 1st RROCK next year.

that’s what I call dedication :)

That's why I married you!. :D You will stand behind me no matter what I want.

All is well on my part. I guess. RROCK looks fine and Heidi is excited about Sherock. Only thing I gotta move around is Topshop. Our plans for Moab this yr where Mar 19th thru the 30th yikes. Now I gotta really plan things thru. Could stop in Hannibal on our way home but competeing after a 28 hr drive is gonna be rough. :DConsider me in. I'll be there!!!!!!:D

Brian, If you guys make it out to moab and have problems Im about 2 hours away. Not a big garage but could help if you need anything.

Thanks we always run into somthing bad. The road trip is more of an adventure than moab itself. Maybe we can wheel in Montrose instead but I think the weather might be a challenge. We have alot of reworking to do in our schedules. But seems douable....somehow...

Leave for Moab 19th
Leave Moab for Hannibal the 27th
