Then on Saturday morning, everyone will come back together at Camp Jordan for the Moparty Picnic. This will be a gathering of cars from throughout the area.

Glad to hear that your coming to the show. Looks like a good turnout based on the response from the owners heading to the show. The drag racing looks to be really getting a lots of attention from the racers looking to make some good money as well.

You might want to post on the Facebook site as well and check out the Birmingham, AL. Mopar site to see if anyone has posted as they usually support the show with a good attendance of cars.

Loading up "Miss Victory" in the morning. I can't wait to hear her scream when I rip down the 1320 w/open headers and all 6 barrels WFO!

Made it here easy. About 6 1/2 hrs. Went to see Ken (the narrator in the video who puts on the show). Some guys hanging out at his house. That 68 Hemi Roadrunner is SWEET! A couple of garages on his property. Nice 497 Stroker 65? Max Wedge crossram Coronet. Also a 32?Ford with a 352 Hemi, topped off w/a functional 6-71 blower and open zoomies!
Going to hit the sack early and start at the track around 8am tomorrow.
Unfortunately only an 1/8th mile aka half a race, but it should be fun.

 

[biomedtechguy]

I'm about to head to the track. Had a slow start today attendance wise, but some great cars!

My interior view:

I had a hard time all day cutting a good light. I ran this Challenger down by 330ft mark and on to the 1/8th for a win.

 

[biomedtechguy]

Got put on the trailer by this Hellcat Charger. Poor RT and some traction issues.
I really need a line lock, some appropriate shocks, and an adjustable pinion snubber.
I had a blast today though!

 

[biomedtechguy]

More videos and pix coming Saturday.
68 Hemi Barracudas...
The world record Hellcat Challenger..
And more!
Stay tuned!

At the race track today, in Georgia by the Tennessee state line, we ALL STOOD for the National Anthem, we ALL thanked our military active service and veterans, and we ALL participated in a prayer before the races started...
God bless America,
and I LOVE the SOUTH!

Nice! Thanks brother. Glad you didn't break anything!
