also excuse my ignorance, but drag racing @ infineon is actually going around a track right? not just straight line 1/4 mi?

Yup thats it, i saw it yesterday. A bunch of us are leaving from San Jose, it takes us about 1hr 30- 2hrs traffic dependant, to get there. Your welcome to caravan. We'll leave about 1:30pm sharp.

i might do it for kicks, my 5at sedan will have some sorry times compared to you guys tho hahaha. maybe i'll hit mid to low 14's. either way we'll probably be up there for the sights

We are leaving from Zcargarage in San Jose. The last time the guys went they only had 1 practice run left because of the amount of people there. So leaving that early will get us there before or right when they start.

Im gonna be heading out of here in the next few minutes to be a Zcargarage by 1:30pm and on the road right after that. Looks like a good day.

i went and just got back. somehow i made it from vallejo where we ate at the chevy's to my house in an hour and 5 minutes.... we drove like 105-110 miles up and i only drove 70-75 back... 80W->101S was really fast coming down.
i had a good time and it was nice meeting walt, chuck, arvin, eric, bruce, ezekiel, and others whose names i already forget. better with faces than names...
anyway i snapped a bunch of pics i'll put online later. but for now i'm toast and hitting the sack.

Had a great time, met Giri.
For my runs, i think my tranny might be going or its my clutch cuz i couldn't get in 2nd or 3rd on my 1st two runs. After that it was kinda unsure if they were going in but i ran just about my usual. Notice my times and my 60ft, lots of potential left. I have to launch harder tho, 4k drops weren't enough.
