You're someone in my books Ziggy!

I don't even think PPG or Andy are going. I know Steve isn't.

Sorry Zigman didn't see your post!

When I went (2006) I followed a bunch of people down (Ghis, Scott, Pete, Kevin, Ryan, Eric and company), which in my opinion was the best part of the trip and on the way back followed Mark, Andy, Rob, Steve probably forgetting someone.

I also liked hanging out at Buschur's shop, drags were fun to but because I didn't have a DSM on the road I wasn't racing which would have been more fun.

Maybe next year, especially if I get a permanent position at work and accumulate some time off.

Have fun Ziggy take some pictures!

I'm thinking attendence will be down this year. The whole GOBC isn't going this year at all. Hell I just got my car running again. I will miss the shootout again this year (as I did last year).

There is also the issue of the most recent Buschur vs Magnus crap that (I feel) will impact how many people attend. I know I was left a bit in awe of how nasty it got. I'm sure a large majority of NABR guys won't go this year.

It will be interesting to see what happens. I had always looked forward to Bacon gravy, real mexican food and lots of beer/sh!t-talking/sleepness nights.

Have fun!

I don't mean to go off topic, but I think this calls for another Peckerhead shootout!

I'm getting bored. Half the summer has gone by and still barely any DSM's on the track.
The next CSCS event, I guess I'll be the only DSM competing from this club in SS/PA class.

Peckerhead shootout indeed, but lets not make it in October.

Hopefully I will have something to run, even if it's only on the 14b.

I am not involved in NABR or in any of the political stuff. I am also not racing...just going to look at a lot of nice cars and see some races ...and have a little "holiday"...that is good enough for me.

Peckerhead shootout indeed!
He's gotta get off his ass and get er done though.

I'd love a track day. Maybe we should get Andy to organize it again (bahaha) It may even motivate him to fix the damn car!

But yes, before the snow flies please!

Back? Bah, they don't need to be back to give us updates.

Hell, I was sending out pictures of bacon gravy from the breakfast table last time I went.

Someone could have thrown us a bone of SOME sort while they were there. They suck. laugh

First SO I haven't gone to in 5 years. And you know what, I would have felt like I missed something good if Dave wasn't such a sh!t disturber.

Sorry I suck..but not all of us know how to send pictures from afar.

I didn't bring a laptop, and my cell phone battery died. I couldn't even PHONE home without a pay phone, never mind send pictures.

Anyways, I am not much of a photographer anyways...I am sure there will be MUCH better pics on you tube and elsewhere...

But it WAS fun, and the bacon gravy was still delicious smile

I was most impressed by some of the EVO's.....just amazing!

In the quick 16, 14 of the cars were legitimate 9 second cars

It looks like Pat (driver) and Mark (wrencher / tuner) from Forcepower won the DSM Eliminator with a 10.7@135 pass.

What a Shootout this year!!!!!
Didn't see any dsmcanada people there and im really surprized that Tim and Eric didn't come down.
Anyway....ForcePower and Team S.O.DSM was there in full effect once again. Didn't take quite the fleet we wanted to but I believe we had 12 or so of us there.
We did win the DSM Eliminator with the BlackBird and another one of our Team guys came runner-up in the DSA class.
Just for the record for those that are counting....I put down 3 10 second passes and of coarse with it being "heads up" racing, my slower runs were because I was shutting down at 3/4 track to save the car.
Again.....what a Shootout, weather was perfect and im still on cloud 9.


2008 DSM Eliminator WINNER!!!!
Best to date: 10.5@140mph
