Well if my plans come through, I will be at the NATS.  I have to get with some other members of the Redneck Mafia/Mountain Section and pull off a liquor store heist to finance it, but that shouldn't be too tough.............

I presume "liquor store" is a euphemism.  Don't you people get your beverages directly from the local manufacturer?

Well, Howard, to be honest, My Momma's Step-Daddy used to make some unusual beverage "strictly for medicinal purposes", of course.  Seems there were a whole lot of people in need of medicine!  A couple hundred gallons a week or so.  And the delivery was usually done late at night........  Seems some guys from the Federal Government wanted everyone to stay sick!

Now we have actual stores that sell "real liqour" (not medicinal) and they are called ABC stores.  Course in South Carolina (guess they can't read as well down there) the stores just have big red circles on them!  The stores really do keep money in them........  y1

Joey , Clancy and I were discussing this Dinner in the chat room. I think is should be the night of the beauty Contest at the Roadhouse. I know I'll be there. By then we will have our new run of Stunt Hangar shirts, make sure you get yours to wear there. We can let Christ Rigotti make the reservation under Fred Flinstone which by the way he has already done on me last year. Maybe Fred will chime in here.

I'm going to VSC, NW Regionals, Western Canadian Stunt Champs and Prairie Fire Stunt (Edmonton). Ain't goin' to the NATS anytime soon!  I hope some Canadians go to VSC, because any contest they're at is a blast!  LL~ Steve

Don't worry, Clancy.  If there's anyway possible, I will be there.  And yes, there will be plenty more there, too! y1

Any night of NATS week you can go to the "Texas Road House" and find control liners there.  One year the group from Texas that let me hang with, we went to "Fazolis" 4 nights straight.  Seems Melvin and Brenda always find a new restaurant.  DOC Holliday

Steve Helmic,

I plan to make all of those contests you quoted including the Ron Salo Memorial Speed Contest the week before the Western Canada Stunt Meet.  Oh, did I forget the Nats too.  It will be a busy month or so from Nats time on but I guess I'm getting used to it.  In fact I think it's expected of me to be on the road all the time.

I haven't been to Canada for at least 20 years so I'm going to try and make up for that.  See you at VSC in March.

I'll see Joey and the rest of the Stunt Hangar gang at the Roadhouse.

Sunday at the roadhouse after appearance judging? That might be interesting if I can get away from the rest of my group. Or maybe bring my group along.
