Think I'll wash my car in the morning and then show up at Chux place at 1:00 or so unless there is something else to do in Duluth beforehand.
you know you have to enter by 9:45AM or something like that to be in the show/drags. are you just thinking of watching?
hmm... chuxs address. i dont have it written down anywhere. you take 35 to mesaba. then go up the hill its the last turn before the 53? (top of the hill) stoplight. take a right and another quick right.
here ya go it was on page 33 or something:biggrin: my address is: 107 E 8th St. getting to my place: follow I35 N into town. exit at and follow Mesaba Ave. follow it up the hill to 7th st (stoplight) and turn right. follow seventh to 1st ave E (second stop sign.....probably a silver '94 Tleg parked there....usually is :biggrin, turn left, park on either side (facing either direction, we don't care about that here) of 1st ave between 8th and 9th st. my house is the 3rd one in from the alley, you'll see my subarus and 4Runner parked in the alley.

I think for the drags you NEED a timeslip from a drag track... to prove you've done it before... and you gotta pass a tech inspection of some sorts. Oh and they are only doing an 1/8th mile no 1/4
alright...see everyone at 9am sharp at firestone!! and everyone that is meeting up at forest lake target i will see you at 10. this weekend is going to be a blast!! Justin
couple things.... the map Justin made to my house is not possible. you cannot turn on 8th street from Mesaba. I highlighted the way to get there on the map I made (somewhere before you guys started claiming each others' asses :roll. and the directions posted are correct. turn on 7th st, then up 1st ave. also, will someone call me with a head count (people, not cars) when you leave forest lake so I can get enough room reserved at Grizzly's. 612-270-8065
Part of me is envious of all you guys making the trip...the other part of me says "you'll have just as much fun washing the cars, raking leaves, and putting a fuel filter in our van". I'm not well.
Someone rolled their car by the Jay Cooke State Park on their way to the Duluth ride. I am not able to make the trip but my hubby is on his way to pick them up. It was Fobia's girlfriend-WeRideExtreme..car started on fire..she was driving too fast on a 90 degree. Broke a tire and some oil lines I guess. Everyone is ok though.
another problem...they were all at the gas station and someone left with the pump still attached to their car--I guess there was gas all over the ground and the guy put a nice dent in his car from the pump. lol! I hear everyone got some nice pics of that!
gees whats gonna actually happen when you guys start drinking.... glad you are all a long ways away from me
I thought that gas stations were suppose to have the gas pumps that if someone forgets about it, when they drive away it is suppose to break apart and not spray gas everywhere
What's funny is that right before he drove off with the pump and cut off the gas to every one else's pump, he came over to me and said "HAHA, I Checked my oil, just in case you wanted to know."
