Maybe I'll see/meet you at LVD on the 27th. I usually have a car there racing with the FAST class guys, but no racing this year for me. I have to pick up a pair of '64 quarter panels that a friend brought from Oklahoma for me. Man he does a lot of driving. Let me know if you are taking a car and I'll look for ya!

Have never raced @ the track. However I would like to run the Fairlane in the pure stock class. I have to get a trailer. What car did you race in the FAST class. I am familiar with many of the cars. If you raced there in the last seven years, I may remember your car. Not many Fords or Mercs there so the ones racing standout.

Re: Russ's 64
This is me! But I won't have the car there this year. I'll be hanging out with the FAST guys. It really is a nice event that Hemmings hosts. They have always treated us very well.

Re: Russ's 64
I don't know if Lane will be there racing or not. Something tells me he is building a new car for a different class. My motor is a 428CJ stroked out to 462cu in. Best pass for me was 11.70 @ 121mph.

Re: Russ's 64
Yea, I thought I read somewhere that Lane was building a Boss 429 motor for his next car. Hey Mike, what town do you live in?
