I was just made aware of this event - wishing I'd known in years past http://www.jalopyshowdown.com/

Rat rod drag racing, flat track, parts swap and bands. 

The Checkered Flag
Jalopy Showdown
May 16th 2009
Latimore Valley Fairgrounds
York Springs PA

A bit north of Gettysburg... Google map route from NOVA runs right through Thurmont... hmmm

I'm not 100% sure I can do it.  But I figured folks might be interested in the event.  IF you would like to go, post up/let me know and we can work on a tentative plan.

-Throttle's on the right, so are the brakes.  Good luck.

Good question - I can't find the time either on the site.  But I found some info from 2008 - things started at 9am on Sat.

You thinking of going Gene?   I'm leaning further towards going...

In contact with a local and talking to my usual posse, we were talking about doing some PA exploring anyway and I need a ride bad. I will post what I find out form local contact. - Gene

At this time, I am still going.  But it's going to be a game time/ mid flight call if we make it to PA or turn back short.

Well the weather forecast has inched further into the bad territory.  For any lurkers watching this thread... it's going to be a totaly game time decision.  Something closer to home might be a replacement.
