Posted today:


Here ya go!

Below is the list of the 69 participants invited to the 2008 Pump Gas Drags in Memphis. Each invitee has been sent an email, except for 3 of you that didn't include an email address. We will either snail-mail the invite to you, or call on the phone. But you're probably not reading this anyway since, ya know, you don't have email.

Remember that nearly everyone who entered by the deadline was accepted, so the usual "You picked too many Camaros" or "why no AMC's?" will fall on deaf ears this year! Also, we're aware of the early problems with emailing entries, but at least 68 of you figured it out, so if yours didn't make it through...sorry.

Now, without further ado.....

Re: HOT ROD Pump Gas Drags 5

My vote was to kill PGD last year. I think Drag Week proves it all and is where the focus should be. But when you attend PGD it's still pretty great.

Re: HOT ROD Pump Gas Drags 5

DF it was hard not to sign up this year to make it 5 years straight. But after DW this was the real test to man and car. There both cool events but Ill stick with DW for awhile unless you guys come up with something cooler. Also PGDs I gain weight DW not enough time to drink or eat as much so I lose weight. Id rather gain ;D

Re: HOT ROD Pump Gas Drags 5

It's unfortunate that the car entries struggled like that, but the PGD's design was an hour glass anyway. After the first race, whispers of purpose builts were everywhere and the arguement of funny car cages or 8.50 limits is a brick wall. Now its a couple guyz fighting for the top spot and the rest scrambling for the remaining 10 jackets. Give away two jackets and see how many show up. A brilliant event that had its day.
Not to mention Memphis has got to be the most consistant non hookin track in the country.
Now DragWeek is a whole different animal...I dont know what could stop that other than our economy.

Re: HOT ROD Pump Gas Drags 5

Does not look good for the future of the PGD race. No coverage this year! Hey Dave how a Car Junkie PGD race? Hot Rod needs you back. Still no jackets from last year either. I spoke to Kyle its a shame he cannot make it. :o

Re: HOT ROD Pump Gas Drags 5

HRTV has not been there in a few years.

[mopower58]

Re: HOT ROD Pump Gas Drags 5

I applied but as of 6:30 pm central time today no word. I will be there to spectate regardless. It seems as though Kyle at 1320 will not be there nor Hot Rod tv. Looks as though it may fall through the cracks.

Re: HOT ROD Pump Gas Drags 5

I would like to get a most legit jacket a 9 or a 10 second one, It will be a big feat to run a nine at that weight and SBNA, I have no chance at a top 10 with a N/A Small Block but if it makes it past Thursday night this time with the crank still in it. I will be cruising Beal Street : and driving around Friday in it to see the town I missed last year pulling rag out of the oil pan. :'(

Re: HOT ROD Pump Gas Drags 5
