If you weren't the Mayor I wouldn't let you get away with calling me an elf... :nope:

We're up to 31 Duelies so far... 17 available spots remain, with one week to go before registration closes. You might have a little more time to decide, but don't miss out! 8-)

Hamilton was killed in a duel with Burr....Ooooooo. He is still on a $10er until they ultimately put a girl on there. Steve is putting up another 10er? Steve I bet you Soyara will beat you with her non-infested race car.

This might be more fun than you folks realize :lol: Place your bets.

Glutton for punishment, are you? I'd take the bet, but wouldn't want to put Soraya in the position of being responsible for your losing a paper Hamilton.

So, since the Vee is again a NOOP, the vette is banned, and there is zero hope that Matt's car is gonna be ready to go in a week I'm looking for a co-drive for this. Beggars can't be choosers, but FWD sux. LOL

I'm going racing in an 70% probability of thunder storms tomorrow. I am racing against a "better driver" until it rains and I kick his butt. They callrd me Mr Smoothie in yesteryear.

You gotta love this sport. It rained so hard today a skinny girl's bikini top floated to my mail box. Wife made me throw it out as it was WAY too small and was dirty. I think the neighbor guy wore it in the rain.

Monday is the last day to register for the Duel. Get in while you can!

With only 29 entries, this could be the last time we do it. Not much point in putting on an event that people aren't interested in. If you like the Duel and want to see it again in the near future, make it happen!

Not saying it won't be sufficiently fun with 29 entries... gives us enough for four 8-car brackets (more our less), and enough extra time to do maybe one or two more practice runs.

Oh, and the shirt order has been placed. I did order a very limited number of extras. Let me know if you want one.

It's August. No one does anything in August in FL except kiss snakes and drive for shit.

Any time you can get talent like Elliiot Harvey, Ken Marion AND The Mayor to go at it you have succeeded. One would naturally assume OTHERS would come and watch and learn at such an event.

They simply have other things to do like go to Walmart and buy their wife a cold drink. Or drive up North to the NASCAR events in TN. Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater just limit AUGUST events to "nothing". Not even a picnic.d

Think about the other 11 months when you had huge turnouts. DOH. Homer.

The only thing that makes August longer is NOT having an autocross. We've tried it.

For you? You want to do an old Vette VS old Fastiva ? Admittedly my brain was sorta fried at TBD but it didn't matter as I won 2nd anyhow. Wife was sorta fried too. Called me names and told me to drive to Maine again.

Yes, she is a naughty banana and disturbs the peace excessively. I could remedy this issue with by muffling her, but that would be very un-American of me and president Trump would be disappointed. That would be working against his efforts of "Making America Great Again", he would probably have me deported. :-(
