I've had to do some serious thinking over the past month or so about our upcoming 1400 mile Draglist Nationals trip. With so many people backing out for various reasons that were going to bring their race cars, and now are not, I had to re-think our decision on whether we should really make the trip out to Iowa towing the car or just go with the motorhome. I made a number of phone calls yesterday getting some opinions, and ended up right back where I started due to half saying yes, and the other half saying no. One of the main reasons for making the trip out there was to race against another car that was somewhat close in performance, making the event even more exciting. Another reason is to meet up with the friends we made last year at this event, and also make a few more new ones. Well, it wasn't until last night, while going thru some old posts, that I came across my report from last years trip. Oh ya, we'll be there, and the yellow car will be right behind us all the way. If I have to get paired up with Rapid Randy Baker in the Nitro Madness AA/FA car, so be it, in fact, I'm rather looking forward to it now.
Here is the link to last year's report. Read it, and then do a search for other stories written around the same time, then you'll understand "The reason We Do It".
