Headed for "Pinks all Out"

    Got a call last week from Joliet Raceway in Joliet, IL. that I was selected from a lottery to run in "Pinks all Out" June 25th & 26th (Fri & Sat) for $10,000.00 and NAPA tool chest if one makes the final 16 out of 500 entries. I get two time runs on Friday and one on Sat. and one with the arm drop afterwards. Probably will not make the final 16 but may get to be on TV for a couple of seconds during a time run. Looking forward to going and having fun.

    Good luck Randy, would like to see you in the final !! Any chance someone will be there to take a video? That would be a fun thing to watch. Richie.

    Randy,



    Good Luck and Good Traction. Is Joliet 1/8 or 1/4? Still running Webers or have we got the injection working?

    Cheers,

    Ivan

    Randy,

    Thats really great news to learn you were selected to drag your Hudson on Pinks... I am sure that you will have it supertuned and try your best to make the Finals. But regardless, its an honor for you and your Hornet powered Hudson to perhaps get some National TV time for the old Marquee.....

    Good Luck
