I'm downloading a podcast of RV Buddies and the title is "GMC RV's Drag Racing.

It's still downloading, so I don't know what it's about, but the title is certainly enticing!

False alarm so far. The download crashes and I can't find it on
their website.

Time for bed. I have to go to work in the morning, and work seems to
get in the way of my whole day!

Hey, don't LOL at the bikes, hw got the low ET!  That was "barefoot Bob" and all of that may be silly but aren't we anyway!  It was a blast and the Sunshine Statesmen will do another -- the 4th annual next April I think.  Don't knock it til ya try it, locking the rear wheels with the E brake and loosing traction in the water is no big deal but you sure can boil some water like that!  Was just plain fun-- go do it at your local track on "run what ya brung night" and you too can be a center of attraction!

I am a drag racer from back in the 70's but I just can not bring myself to do this with our GMC. Now, a 10 mph rolling start and I am up for that.

Jim,
You are weird. - No Offense intended.
Us 3.07 guys don't even stand a chance.
The 6 wheel disk people can't use the E-brake to hold on the line.
Do you "Deep Stage"??
I like the one that took the time to turn on headlights during the run. He probably had to change CDs -too.
(I've also seen passcars that couldn't do a 23 sec 1/4.)
