George Ray's trip? 1 Year, 4 Months ago Karma: 0  
I would like to head down to Paragould before it gets too late in the season this year. I've not been there in about 20 years!!! I will driving down from the Thayer/Mammoth Springs area. May be if we make plans early it can happen?

Personally I would be afraid to go down there. The dude might shoot me for going too slow.

12.0? Really? Are you serious?

Is it just me or does that seem really slow?

I don't think I could make my car that slow. Seriously. That would be what... a 18 second 1/4 or something like that?

Maybe if I stuck my car in 2nd the whole way.

I run an almost perfect 9 flat in the 1/8th, that could be fun.

i think 9.0 is a money class too. it really is a ton of fun. we should get as many of us together and see about going down there, camping saturday night and racing sunday. me and george get along great, and i doubt we'd have any trouble being allowed to camp again.

Re:George Ray's trip? 1 Year, 3 Months ago Karma: 0  
If you are planning on going to G Rays. Time trials start at noon for all cars
and it doesn't cost anything to race. We have money classes at every half second
break from 9.00 down to 5.50
Trophy classes are 12, 11 and 10 seconds.
We will run every Sunday in October, weather permitting.
Always call before coming, it's about a four hour trip from Springfield, MO.
573-236-8247 is George Ray's home phone. His home is the dragstrip...lol.
It's seven dollars to watch, kids under 12 are free.
Nothing to race. We start the races at 2:30 pm beginning with the 12 second trophy
class and work our way thru those folkes till they are done, then bring the in the
9 second class and work our way down to 5.50 class.
Here is a link to the shots I took last Sunday, if you go to my sets you can see
a bunch of different tracks as well as George Rays.
