Dwight,

What is the MKLO Fuddrucker's cruise? Haven't seen any info on that. I assume it's the local clubs hang out, and they are inviting all of us foreigners to join 'em...

Just want a little more info.

Tom

BigD · 09-14-2005, 11:02 AM

I will let Vern answer that, as he is the head of MKLO (Missouri-Kansas Lightning Owners).

Vern · 09-14-2005, 02:10 PM

We have arranged a cruise-in at Fuddruckers in Independence, MO for Sat after racing. You can arrive anytime after 5 pm, but most of us will be there after closing the track at 8pm. They have plenty of parking for us to mingle, bs, and show the trucks. Fudds will also give all of us a discount on food in the restaurant. Just tell them you are with the NLOC cruise.

For those not familiar with Fuddruckers, they have the "Best Hamburgers in the World"! And yes, they also have liquid refreshments. If you don't believe that then check their website at www.fuddruckers.com.

Address is 4400 Noland Rd, Independence, MO 64055. It is one of the popular cruise-in spots in the KC area, and Noland Rd is one of the cruisin streets. It is about 5 minutes from the track, just up toward I-70 on Noland Rd, and also about 5 minutes from the host hotel. Map with the locations:

Can you give more details on this?

1:00P-4:30P Show class drags

This will be my first year attending LFest.
I plan on running in the True Street Truck class and The Show on Sunday. But, I was wondering if I could get in any racing on my non DOT approved slicks and skinnys during the Test and Tune friday night or the show class drags (since I cannot use them for true street)

Thanks!
Eric

BigD · 09-15-2005, 08:52 PM

Hi Eric,

You can run slicks Friday night and Sunday after the truck show. The drag strip will be used for any tires/anyone that wants to run Sunday. We will give priority to those that wanted to show their truck, but also wanted to run after the show. There is 3 1/2 hours of running, so bring your slicks.
