Its been a busy couple of weeks leading up to our departure for Tulsa. It doesn't seem to matter whether its the first practice of the year or getting ready for a big event like this, it always seems that everything comes down to the last minute. Throw in the general business of the holidays and it causes everyone a little bit of stress. The good news is that the cars have arrived in Tulsa. My dad and Phil Heil left yesterday morning with my car and his son TJ's cars. Although they ran through a bit of snow and nasty weather early in the trip, they reported that things cleared up once they got through St. Louis. My daughter and I will be leaving today and hope to make it in late tonight. T.J. and his mom are traveling out this afternoon. We also talked with Spud Gustin who reported that they expect to arrive mid afternoon today. I guess next up on the agenda is the long wait (from what we understand) to get the cars into the facility.
We'll be attempting to bring you as much in the way of photos and news as we can from the event. We are also very excited to have Lynsey Tilton and Kevin Greer reporting from the Rumble Series in Ft. Wayne. Be sure to check it out as Lynsey as already started to post some information. Click here for the Ft. Wayne Report We wish everyone competing this weekend the best of luck.
Here is a photo of the cars TJ and I will be running in Tulsa -- just before loading them into the trailer.
