  • you know your at dragweek when.......

    we talked about how there are just things that only happen at dragweek .thought id post a few ..

    if your passed by a promod pulling a trailer
    theres gravel in the shower when you get out.
    the most complete meal of the week came out of a window
    you long for food that didn't come from a place that also sells fuel.
    getting the hotel by midnite is a goal.

          you figure out what day of the week it is by what track you are at.
          When you get lost, but still have a long line of drag week cars following you.
          stopping at some weird art work in the middle of no where looks like a cars show/repair clinic.

            You get bored when there's no cars to fix one day.
            A stranger in some podunk town invites you to fix your car in his garage. And it turns out you have several friends in common.

              You go to sleep with the buzzing of 3000-4000RPM still going on in your head.

                              Blowing up your good engine and throwing together junk engine to still do DW knowing you'll be last in your class and having a good time. BUT I WILL NEVER DO A GEAR DRIVE ON DW AGAIN. Giving another DWer a ride to the speed shop and him saying how good mine rode and it being quieter than his.
