We get numbers? I want 15 or 215. 15's been my number since my first championship pinewood derby car.

Currently I have 179 but I am hoping to hear from WERA on mine. I asked for 16, 64 or 256. 16 looked possible

Come with whatever number you want already on the bike. If you don't have one you'll be assigned one If there are duplicates there will be a turtle tossing contest to see who will get the number in question.

67 for me please!

Can I still participate in the turtle tossing event?



For those not familiar with this Olympic type event...
Brother abtech was not fooling when he mentioned there will be many types of wildlife at this event, including hammer! One year a large box turtle (I think that's what it was) was GENTLY assisted to the other side of the track so as to not endanger any riders or itself. This humane gesture became known as the turtle tossing event for reasons unknown.

I'll let him answer that one... but I'm sure if he's not ready for it, we can find plenty of single, handsome, fast, and smart guys who'd volunteer.

I'm sure many of the non-single guys, including me, would be watching... I'm sure.

If you have a racing number or "fave" then make certain to bring it with you (preferably already mounted on your front fairing). Otherwise (just like ND4SPD said), it's first come, first served . . .

Can't remember who also had 66 last year.

Is the turtle tossing contest by distance?

All of this turtle talk is making me hungry.

Turtle Sauce Piquant


1 pound turtle meat
2 large onions, chopped
2 bell peppers, chopped6 ribs celery, chopped
1 or 2 Jalapenos chopped
1 small can tomato paste
2-1/2 cans water
2 tablespoons sugar
10 chopped fresh lemon basil leaves
2 bay leaves
Cooking oil
Salt
Red pepper
Garlic powder

Special utensil: Heavy iron pot (Dutch oven).
Marinate turtle meat seasoned with salt and red pepper over night in enough vinegar to cover meat. Take turtle meat out of marinade. Let drain 5 to 10 minutes; do not rinse. Put about 1/2 inch of cooking oil in heavy iron pot. Turn stove on high to heat oil in pot, while seasoning meat with salt, red pepper and garlic powder. Put in enough pieces to cover bottom of pot. Brown well on all sides. As turtle browns, take out and drain on plate. Continue until all browned. Add onions, bell pepper, celery and jalapenos. Brown lightly until onions are soft. As seasonings are browned add tomato paste and 2 cans of water. Cook until meat turns light brown. Add 2 cans water, sugar and turtle meat, then basil and bay leaves. Bring to a boil; reduce to simmer for 2 to 2-1/2 hours. Serve over hot rice with a salad and garlic bread.
