I'm going.
Friends with two boats entered:
Texas Red
"Hold my Beer, watch this"
http://www.quartermilemarketinglive.com/drivers/texas_red.htm

I went to the Waco (Brazos River) races too.

It was pretty cool standing on the bank of the brazos and feel the ground
shake when they go by.

Check on line for coupons if you are going.

New Top Fuel World Record was set on Saturday at 249 MPH.
(Not sure on the time.)
That's freakin fast in a 1/4 mile... in a boat.

Texas Red won with a perfect 8.00 second run in the finals.


What does this have to do with crappie fishing on Lavon?
As Jerry said... ain't no crappie! icon_cool.gif Might as well go to drag boat races.
If Jerry is stumped ... we're all in trouble. icon_cry.gif
