Skrilla - Texas Motor Speedway is straight north on I35W. Exit hwy 114 and turn left under the bridge. You will see us out there in one of the parking lots along the road. My buddy and I will be there sometime between 7:30 and 8:00 and Scott, Patrick, Chris, and a few others will be there a little earlier. Racing starts around 9:45-10:00 I believe, but show up whenever you want.
I'll PM you my number in case you need any more info.

Eric, is was great to have you out there beating the track up ! 
I'm glad we had a good turn out today....everybody had improved tremendously with their times in the afternoon since the track dried out....but all in all a great time with everyone as always !
We meet a few new people out there and can't wait for them to get ready for some of the events coming up. Nice to meet you Travis ( travlee9374 ) your Z looks good and I can't wait for your tune and see you out there with us.
Here is my best time of the afternoon....57.312....It was nice to finally beat Scott ! **** Turn your sound down a lot.

Ya his tires are super grippy. I rode with him once and his car feels solid as a rock! Good job out there Chris. And thanks to Scott for letting me ride along and for riding with me to give me some good pointers.

Great time everyone. Nice to meet the new guys. Eric, I enjoyed riding with you. Your nice and smooth and that will give you a solid base to start from as you push the car harder.
Well down Chris. Now you have a big bullseye on your bumper,and I am aiming for it..
Here is my best run. 57:7 about 4/10 behind

Scott....just as a broken clock can be right twice a day...I guess I can get lucky and put a good run together thats faster than you...for once ! Fun course yesterday once it dried out.
Job well done to everybody yesterday....especially Eric who hasn't had much seat time at all and came out with a 12th place finish.
I hope to see more people out there next time.
Results are posted in the Events section....but here is a capture of our class.

This is a really good forum here in the DFW area. A lot of good people locally with some great knowledge of things.....So you can learn a lot from these peeps.
And Jake is the guy to get your installs done for cheap....if you don't mind helping and learning while you work on your car.

All you guys have some really nice Zs! I'm always looking to other Z owners for good ideas and inspiration. Im interested in having Jake do some work on mine and also gain a little more knowledge.
