Sunday April 28, 2013. Kil-Kare Speedway, Xenia, Ohio. Several of us showed up last year. Nobody wanted to hook to the large mv's, so they made exhibition pulls. Weather was windy and chilly, but still a good time. Gates open @ noon, pulls start @ 2 pm. Admission $10.

Does anyone know if there are any issues with applying POR 15 paint over top of CARC paint? I intend on doing the inside of my M1009, then applying OD over the POR 15. I am not familiar with the carc and don't want any major surprises! I will clean and rough the surface, and know NOT to breathe...
