2023 Man Cup opener, April 14-16th @SGMP
« on: February 22, 2023, 07:48:36 pm »
OKay fellas. It's time for my annual question: Who plans to throw a leg over a bike and participate in the Manufacturers Cup series this season.? The first race is right around the corner so there's still time left to get yourself and the bike ready.

I know Bill is chomping at the bit, Wilbur is trying to figure out a few things and Larry wants more power🤣. Anyone else planning to make at least one of the races on the schedule or maybe participate in another series or local events.

Let hear what's going on out there with the drag racing aficionados.

Well, it seems we won't make the Cup race this weekend.  Had to rethink that 7 hour drive straight through to get the wife back to work on Monday morning. I'm not as young as I used to be so a continous haul after a 2 day race event isn't  the easiest or smartest thing to do at this present time.

Good luck to everyone that's going to participate. Those going to spectate please enjoy yourselves.  I'll catch you guys at the Rockingham Dragway event.

Yes. We intend to run several XDA events this season.  Maybe one at Maryland and the 2 at VMP.

Just got an unofficial word that they still intend to contest this event. Thecweather isn't looking good for Friday or Sunday. They intend to compress the schedule on Saturday and run the race to completion.

Good luck to Wilbur, Billy and both Larry's- Romig and Hayes. Turn on those win lights fellas.
