Roll Call for Muncie (Sorry I mean IRP)

[ToolManTimTaylor]

What is the status? From what I saw it's being moved up to the first week in June??

Very important to write down on your calendars:
The 2007 Indiana Diesel Nationals new date will be June 2-3. Please tell everyone you know!
The DHRA Indiana Diesel Nationals takes place at Oreilly Raceway Park (ORP) in Indianapolis, Indiana, over the weekend of June 2 and 3, 2007.
The event is organized and operated by DHRA, Inc.
The event was born as Thunder in Muncie in June of 2000 at Dave's Diesel, in Muncie, and moved to the Gaston Lions Club Fairgrounds and the Muncie Dragway. Having grown too large for the local venues, we moved it to ORP in 2005.
In 2005, there were 1500 diesels at ORP, with almost 300 participating in the Show-n-Shine, Pulls, Dyno and Drags.
Activities for the Nationals are not limited to the ORP facilities. Many of the participants have started festivities on Friday and continued off-site parties late into the night, on Saturday, and at the campgrounds and area hotels. We anticipate many arrivals beginning festivities on Thursday.
As plans for this year's event develop we will post new information. Please check back often to stay current.
A note of caution: the Diesel Nationals, Indiana, is a grand, festive weekend in addition to being a diesel competition event. A certain amount of exuberance is expected, even encouraged, but do remember that safety at ORP is paramount. Also, not all of ORP's neighbors are so tolerant; so please remember to temper your exuberance when you leave the ORP facilities.

Ok, looks like it will be split 3 ways (you,me,AJ) cause Jim is not secure in his manhood or sumptin. The hotel said that they can add a bed no problem, I just have to give them notice.

[matt95]

[Warpig]

Jim sleeps with a bunch of homo's a couple nights a week, I guess he needs to be alone.
