  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    TexasT Texas, where are you from

    The date has been set for the 2015 Texas Buick Nationals.

    It shall be Saturday May 9th. At the little river academy drag strip. I wouldn't call the facility state of the art but it does have a good backwoods feel. The pits have trees for shade.

    Make your plans to attend if you are able. Hope to see you there.

    Maybe the car will be running. Question is will it be street legal yet? That or haul it? And hopefully the wife doesn't kill me for trying first. Will see. Maybe just being a spectator would be worth it.
