Wednesday night drags on the Jondahl's driveway... Here are some videos from Maureen trying out the new manual transmission in the race car. The driveway wasn't long enough for a full pass - just running through the early shifts... Maureen getting her safety gear on (safety first - even on the driveway) Winton backing her down the driveway into position. Darel guiding her back down after each pass. Good job Maureen (and Winton) - we look forward to coming down to watch you at Woodburn at the end of the month. Thank you for letting us hang out last night - nothing wraps a great day like the sound of pure horsepower in the neighborhood...

thanks for the great pics. That was fun.
Tonite we are practicing our staging and launch with the help of a flashlight to simulate the christmas tree.

Thanks for the vid. We're taking the Honda out for one last try tomorrow night, if it isn't raining. This gives me a good summer send-off for the kids

Who needs to rent a track when you have a driveway that long. lol
Looking good. I want to try and make it down to Woodburn this weekend gotta do some research on the in's and out's of that place. Only been there once when I was just a wee lad.
I may have to head to Florence Saturday for the 10-C Travel Management Plan they are looking to close down more Dunes in relationship to the vegitation. Decisions Decisions. I will know more during the week. If I dont have to go then I am going to Woodburn. Hopefully for all three days if I can swing it.
Should I have to make a journey south and no one is doing anything the more bodies in the room the better. I think I will be by myself if someone wants shotgun. Like I said I will know more later in the week.
Do you think if I called the Forest Service and asked them to reschedule if they would? Ya pipe dreams.

Dave,
I want to head down there sunday as well. After I talk to Maureen about their times they are racing I might try and go saturday as well. I have to attend that meeting in Florence at 230pm to say my little piece then head out and hopefully back to the track before they are done for the day and if I can get back in.
I will give you a call about sunday and maybe if you want to we can carpool from my house down there to save a little fuel.
