Fat Charlie Posted April 1, 2004 Share Posted April 1, 2004 My time,labor & materials used on the WheelSport fuel drag bike were donated in the name of IIRA. With the councils permission the IIRA is an official sponsor. Hopefully the council will post a positive answer on this. The bike now sports IIRA stickers as does the trailer for it. When the bike is in your area we would like to see IIRA suport. Houston was a flop due to shakedown problems that I have now fixed (hopefully). We didn't get past the burn out due to primary belt problems. The next stop will be Shreveport Lousiana in about 3 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maldev Posted April 1, 2004 Share Posted April 1, 2004 Sweet! When can you post the entire tour info? Any chance it'll get out to SoCal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Charlie Posted April 1, 2004 Author Share Posted April 1, 2004 I'll try to work out a schedule. Theres a better than good chance of getting to SoCal. It's just a matter of keeping it together and not run out of money before we get there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whadayawant Posted April 2, 2004 Share Posted April 2, 2004 FC, how much we talkin' for a sponsership? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Charlie Posted April 2, 2004 Author Share Posted April 2, 2004 FC, how much we talkin' for a sponsership? As far a the IIRA sponsorship goes I got that covered. If any one wants to sponsor it's pretty much what you can afford. I wish Blackhawk would want to see one of their engines in the bike, hint hint. It would be great to be running an Indian engine instead of the HD engine. OK, heres the itinerary so far: April 25 - Sunday afternoon Red River Raceway, Shreveport La May 16 - Sunday afternoon Red Line Raceway, Dallas Tx July 24 - Saturday night Houston Raceway Park, Houston Tx June 26 - Saturday Night Texas Raceway, Fort Worth Tx Sept 3,4,5,6 - Labor Day weekend Temple Academy Raceway, Temple Tx October 2 - Saturday night 8th annual Oklahoma State Championships Thunder Valley Raceway Park, Noble Ok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris114 Posted April 3, 2004 Share Posted April 3, 2004 Damn you live in New Mexico right? That's some driving you do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Charlie Posted April 3, 2004 Author Share Posted April 3, 2004 Yeah, that's why I won't be at some of the races. Usually it will just be Dave Reynolds Wheel Sports owner & driver, Kong the #2 mech & Sometimes Dennis Garth the #1 sponsor, going in the motor home towing the trailer. Talk about gas mileage, a box towing a box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Charlie Posted April 5, 2004 Author Share Posted April 5, 2004 After we get famous & find sponsors with deep pockets we will go everywhere. For now we are just racing in the Texas style "party drags champion series" & go where that takes us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Charlie Posted April 27, 2004 Author Share Posted April 27, 2004 We just got back from Shreveport LA. The bad news is, we got rained out & no one got to race. We got to have better luck on the next race. The good news is we met Whadayawant. I'm here to say that if any of you are near Tyler Tx & don't stop to say hay to Paul it will be "your" loss. Paul & wife are solid gold. Meeting Paul & family was worth the trip alone. Thanks again Mr P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
