nice vid.... we need a bog like that ;D

[WILLIE]

Great video Sam.....Was that a black jeep
I seen in the mud ;D or was I seeing things

[samlam]

At Morrison there was a very muddy black jeep, It was hard to tell the differance between the drags track and the bog track,

[bayou]

;D Come on Sam It has not been that long you can still tell the difference from a bog and drag cant you..The bog will be the deeper of the 2 tracks you run on in toulon. That jeep will love it. Are you guys going to make it to strawberry piont and wilsons this weekend. We are going to stay in cedar rapids sat. night. No matter how the racing ends up sat. night will be fun anyway.

[samlam]

I'm planning on the trip, Could not tell U if any one else is going to make it.

I will start a new thread and see if there is any one else going.

I know last wee the gas price keeped 2 trucks home

[samlam]

it's not been that long you can still tell the difference from a bog and drag cant you.


Now I did say it was hard to tell not impossible
but to my highly trained MUD Racer Eye told me to put it in the trailer and leave well enough alone- long season ahead ;D

Sam what do you think will do better at a bog paddles or cuts?
Going to try anything to win class 4

[mis-b-havin]

Hey Rod - why don't you leave yur cuts at home for class 4 bog and go with your DOT tires. ;D

Attn: Tech guys- Could you please define in drags- class 500

What is a minimum functional flatbed?

[bayou]

;D Laura if you were the only truck in the class I might run dot to make it fair 4u. ;D

[mis-b-havin]

:DRod - I was just lookin out for your wind resistance on your trailer or maybe you just need to beef up that FORD. Still can't believe you race a chevy and drive a Ford. Just kidding!
No offense Ford guys, it's just kinda like cross dressing- isn't it?
At least the Dodge has the right guts.
By the way, I think when we go to Toulon, were gonna need a rig just to haul tires.

[nutzy]

Laura all we are doing to the yellow s10 is is putting something like bayou's. But we are still running the sides.I think that is like cross dressing. ???At least he races the better of the two.

Watch it Nutzy. You dont need to strike any nerves.

[samlam]

OK My opinion for what its worth . It takes a bunch of HP to run Paddles or a ton of NOS which I guess is HP. The cuts should do better for you if you get any hook. Only Time I would consider paddles is if there is a ton of standing water. I also recommend Scuba gear if there is that much water.

Rule in 500 Drag states Min of Functional flat bed,
Our intention as it was stated many years ago when the rule was put on paper - will it hold shelled corn??? and I guess there are many ways to interrupt that _ How much corn what kinda corn? pop corn?, Candy corn?? , cooked, Digested corn??? well I guess that not much different looking.

Hey Sam- loved the 2 passes for the bog last time.
Just wondering if you guys are gonna run them back
to back again. 3 min is almost enough time to cool down, but running thru the whole order would be awesome. ;D

The reason for the back to Back is the time frame we have to run the show. We had talked about only 1 pass per entry to keep the show from running into the late night, ( Most bogs only give 1 pass per entry) so we came uP with the solution of - if the driver would like to try and better there run they can stay hooked and make a second pass. It would take much longer to run the order then run again, it would be like adding another class, not to mention the extra time and labor to hook and un hook twice as much. I hope this helps explain the reason for the back to back runs. I do think you can enter a second time ( different drawl) with a different driver but you can only place 1 time, I will check that

Ive actually been to that mud bog. Not that one in particular in the video. when i was in the Navy in Virginia. My buddy lived in NC which was about 20 min from virginia border. That bog takes place in Johnston County about 15 mins from Garner, NC. The county was the biggest corn whiskey boot leggers back in its day and alot of Old School nascar drivers come from there. Also There famous for little red hot dogs at that bog.

:PSam, Jeff I picked up the shrimp for Sat. at the toulon race last night. The seasoning is being shipped from Louisiana this week. Hope you are hungry...
Sam yea I thought cuts would be better for clearance also be a second oppinion never hurts. I got the Scuda gear hooked to the truck last weekend.
