        Scottie was super excited to get in. As you may remember, I totallyforgot to tell him when registration opened, so I am totally relieved!!!!

              Great news.......they are awake. This is my first try at this week of crazy and I sincerely need some input from those that have been in the trenches. My side kick has had to back out due to a scheduling conflict and I am looking for a replacement. I would love to take my 13 year old grand son along, but that means all the driving falls on me, but that's ok. He is helping me build the truck but I'm not sure Drag Week is a place for a young gear head. Any thoughts???????

                The Grand Son sounds like the perfect choice to me! An opportunity to provide great memories that will last his lifetime...

                      Brian Rock brought his son Dean at age 6 and 7 for consecutive years. he did have a co-pilot/ baby sitter ( haha Floyd) , who is now my co-pilot. It was great for them and I'd recommend it highly, at 13 you'll have great crew member even if he can't take the wheel.

                        If I get in, I am planning on taking my son who is 13... Seeing people help each other last year convinced me that we will be fine...
