The next vintage race on our schedule is the CVAR (corinthianvintagerace.com) Drivers school and vintage race held at Texas World Speedway in College Station Tx. Wayne Miles, Bill Rinke, and I are planning on leaving Thursday the 23rd, with the practice and races held Friday-Sunday. We will be taking Waynes 61 Bugeye Sprite racer.
The next race will be the CVAR race at Hallett Motor Racing Circuit in Hallett OK (about 30 miles west of Tulsa) on April 20-22. There will probably by several GOBMC members there, either racing, crewing, or watching.

Lots of progress on the Bugeye. The battery has been moved; the oil cooler has been moved; a bunch of other little stuff has been done. Here is a photo of the dash area without the dash 8O; and a photo of the dash recovered with new vinyl (after I welded plates in several of the unused holes) Maybe I'll just leave it like this and tell Wayne the gauges are virtual... :D

As usual Walt, you do fantastic work. I am working on preparing the big Dodge for the trip to TWS. Will get the Tranny juice changed and probably a couple of new rubber bands for the the front wheels. Just don't understand why I can't get more than 50K out of those Wrangler things. Maybe DD highway has something to do with it. Might see you Wednesday.

OK Walt. How did you get the pictures to post on this site??? I was going to put a picture of the Lotus by my signature but couldn't figure out how to do that.

I am with John; I don't think we can put the photos on our profile yet; to add one to a post is really easy. Use "regular reply" not quick reply and add whatever photos you want. I should be at the shop Wednesday; call me.

We had a very successful weekend; Wayne and Ken both had good outings and Wayne is no longer a Novice! Bill took lots of great photos; I will post some here when I get a chance.
