If I can get my new motor installed and slew of other little details ironed out I might just make it to PF. Stay tuned!

Just a thought, is there a local race track close to Pigeon Forge? At my local track that closed a few years back, they would sometimes host a special class for a club. They would run there normal super pro/pro/sportsman classes but then they would have the club race. I remember a t-bird club, corvette club, a local community called Russellville has their own club as well and they still race once or twice a year at Gateway. They would do TT and elims like everyone else but with no buy backs. Imagine the bench racing that would take place at the hotel. Might be something to look into.
