If you have time in the Springfield area there are at least two towns of interest.  One is Branson, MO  http://explorebranson.com/ (about 35 miles south of Springfield) and the other is Eureka Springs, Arkansas http://arkansas.com/city-listings/city_detail/city/Eureka+Springs/siteid/19/bannerid/13  (about 75 mile south and west of Springfield.  These are not car related events but rather something you could do to fill in a couple of days.  Take a look at the sites and they will give you an idea of the attractions.

Sorry I will not see you at Bonneville but I will be at the HAMB drags.

As you drive I44 west toward OKC you can take the Afton Oklahoma exit and visit the Darryl Starbird Custom Auto musuem. In the Tulsa area you could visit Jim Smiths Hot Rod Garage in Sand Springs. You would take 244 WEST on the east side of Tulsa, follow it to 412 West, then exit at highway 97 south. Go under 412, take first right [service road right by highway] go to industrial area and turn left. HRG is on your right. You can take highway 97 south back to I44. They really build some nice stuff.

I'm in Dallas and going to the HAMB drags.

Hopefully we can cross paths.  I will PM you my
phone number in case you need anything in Dallas.

Thanks for all the tips and links !

We're not going to Kansas City, so we'll have to settle for the Texas BBQ  :D    Something tells me that's not going to be too much of a hardship !!
