Re: (ET) electrak swap meet
I took the liberty of contacting one of the organizers of the Wheel Horse
meet in PA about tagging onto their meet. No word yet.
I would be willing to help organize something in the VA-NC-PA area. The
Wheel Horse meet is one idea, the other would be to tag along on the EV
Drag
Races or one of the EV events in DC.
