Default Hey MN guys! Lets hit the drag strip!

I'm starting to plan a trip to Rockfalls on Sept. 6th. They have an open/trial track day then. I was planning to go to BIR but they only have an open track day on Wednesdays and I really don't want to go in the middle of the week. I was hoping to leave early Saturday and spend the night and leave sometime Sunday after the bracket races. Who's in? Please let me know ASAP! BTW, I'm dropping in a T66 BB turbo this weekend. That will put me at 600whp+! My plan is to blow the tranny just before winter, think I can do it? HAHA!

I assume you'll be doing the 6mt conversion once the AT goes out on ya?

I dunno Nate, there's Wings&Wheels in Osceola, WI on September 6th, so it depends on who is going where.

I doubt I'll be able to make it to either

I think most of us were going to Wings and Wheels. I did make a thread on TECH about Rockfalls for later dates, though.

it's better to go on a fun day than you can race some of the muscle cars.

Import Day is crazy but fun if you're with a good crowd. I went back in 04 when I first got my Z and was by myself. If it was any other weekend, then I'd go or at least try.

God I want to bring the Z to the strip to see what I can do.

I'm sure if Wings&Wheels wasn't the same day, etc, Steve would love to go as well.
