Vehicle weight is big there-definetely a big factor. Ive run right next to/barely edged out a 515whp Cobra when I had less than 400whp on my stock block set-up. Driver mod FTW.

I'm going as a spectator. I'll probably bring my truck with tools, jacks, and jackstands incase anyone needs some emergency repairs.

Hey Guys,

Still waiting to hear back from the track owner.. I will start another thread once i get all the price info and start taking deposits.

Looking into a few things to bring the price down for all.

Later
Todd

After getting a little more practice launching I will probably come to one of those bracket racing days. Will you be going to any of the saturday test and tunes or just the Sunday bracket races? If you go to the saturday test and tune I will go out there and also talk to Jon and see if he wants to come out again too.

I don't do test & tune. Sunday racing is perfect for my schedule. Wash the car on Saturday - race on Sunday. The only thing that takes priority over drag racing is autocross.
