We need more FI guys to participate. I haven't seen any of the FI guys to race. I'm curious as to what their traps would be with whatever kits they have around our region. Also, if any of the guys are on different boards (STi, Evo, S2000, G35, etc etc), I'd appreciate it if you guys could spread the word.

Racers:
1. Chris (3 5 0) -------------- 03 350Z ------ Bolt ons
2. Tony (Tony2) ------------- 06 350Z ------ Bolt ons
3. Anthony (legionnairez) ----- 03 350Z ------ Stock
4. Travis (walkert) ----------- 05 350Z ------ Bolt ons
5. Brian (golfinz) ------------- 05 350Z ------ Bolt ons
6. Jason (nexx) -------------- 04 350Z ------ FI
7. Young -------------------- 06 Tibby ------ N/A
8. Mackie (zspectrum) ------- 07 STi -------- Bolt ons
9. Shawn (350z84) ---------- 06 350Z ------- Bolt ons
10. Will (moog) -------------- ?? G35 -------- FI
11. Carlton (carltonwoah) ----06 350Z-------- stock

Hey guys I just pulled up the rules for the track page.

http://www.texasmotorplex.com/rules.php

So anyone running under a 14 second 1/4 mile time will have to wear a helmet. Just FYI, also no shorts.

I have an idea for Drag Nite. I'm thinking of not only having an N/a class and FI class but also a AWD class for the Subby and Evo peeps. What do you guys think. I will contact Myles and see if he can invite his S2K buddies so i can make the N/a and F/i class a little bigger.

Yeah, if we have lots of Evos and STis, that'd be a bit problematic. They aren't too fast so they're in the N/A Z's class, but they're still FI stock. Not only that, they are also AWD. I think as long as we don't have too many of them, we can just put them in the N/A list or the FI list. Once we get a good number of them, then we'll create a separate class for them.

The more classes we have, the less we have in each class. I don't think we have that many showing up as of yet to have classes for every differences. I hope to get to a point where we can even rent the track for a day so it's just for us. Also, you can tell who was the better driver by looking at the time slip. If you really want to know, then the best way would be to drive the same car and compare times.

What do you guys think? Should there be another class for stock? How would that go with other cars then? I say we just stick to FI class and Bolt ons class, no matter what car.

Aww, come on. This is all we got, 11 people? You guys get free entry, free shirt, chance to win first prize, great time racing/seeing what you and your car can do, etc! Let's get more people and do some recruiting from the S2000, STi, Evo, and whatever other cars. I want a big turnout and have a blast at this event.

Again, feel free to extend the invitation to any and all car enthusiasts. Just let them know that the 350Z/G35 guys will get first priority, then the rest are just in order of whoever shows up first. Also, only Z/G's are eligible for the tournament/prizes for this event. Everybody will still get a shirt, however.

My y-pipe is royally effed up. It's gotten much, much worse. My exhaust sounds worse than before and I lost power due to the leak.
