    I'm going to be in Austin for a meeting on Tuesday October 18th. Just so happens that there's gonna' be drag racing in Downtown Austin (406 West 17th Street @ Guadalupe) the Monday night before. The last few days I've been getting a van ready for competition. Here's my entry:

    Been awhile since I raced the "blazing Daisy" but I learned after the fact that lemon pledge and or heating it up in the oven was the preferred lubricant for the axles? Good luck!

    Thanks for all of the comments guys.

    Paul: I think that flier is from last year! According to Jobe it is tonight. Test & Tune @ 8, First car down the track @ 9. Hopefully you're bringing the DCW, love to see it.
