Hey Jim Haas.............hows the weather?
Uh, you guys mean September 26-28, right?
http://www.bristolmotorspeedway.com/schedules/dragway_schedule
I'll be there for sure.

This was brought up before and the word was no there will not be a BOP this year.
It would be nice but I can sure understand with Jim's schedule and family events going on this year why he has put it off, the family must come first.
If you go to the Buick Performance Groups BB (where Jim is the event director for the club) you will see Jim will be fully involved in the first National event for the BPG in 2004
At this time a date and place has not been posted but it's coming soon.
