    He's a big guy about 6' 1, 280lbs. Like I said, he runs a plymouth duster, I believe is gray primered. Sometimes my other brother from florida runs up there, bill thompson, drives a bad mustang, blue. Next time your there, listen for his name over the loud speakers and then go tell him you have talked to me on pc. His son works there at the track too sometimes, james thompson jr. also a big guy.

            Its been so long since I was at Cordova. The last time i raced was back in 64-65 and I had a 55 Chevy with a 350, auto and can't remember what bracket. Most time it was just friend against friend from school.

                  Well I have been here for like four days, and I am already lookin at a festiva in chitown for 1150 bucks..... I think I just got sucked in.... Ha Ha

                  So, since you guys are into the small vehicles, has anyone ever had or know about the subaru Justy? There is a four door, 4wd, 5sp manual, 88000mi one here that I am also interested in.

                          Yes, you have been sucked in....welcome.

                          I had a 4-door 4WD 5-speed 1990 Justy at one time and loved it. The motors have an issue with a bearing not getting sufficient oil, so beware of that. You can hear it if it's bad. Also, avoid the automatics like the plague. They will fail, and no one can service them.

                            Thanks for the advise, those justy's seem to be pretty rare, and I would love a little two door awd one, that would just be sweet.

                            On to some worse news, someone just keyed my wifes 07 Legacy From headlight to taillight on the drivers side, I'm a bit furious....
