The best deal is every Thursday or Sunday for $10. I have to work both days this coming week. I will make the January 22nd date for sure. The gate opens at 6pm and they start racing by 7pm for a solid 3 hours. You can normally get all the runs you want during that time.

I called and they will be open both Thursday and Sunday this week. On Sundays girls get in free and race free.

A bunch of RSX type S's will be there this Thursday and claim they can beat any Z. I can't show since I have to work a 24 hr shift ..... hope someone defends the Z honor

just go to their main web site for all the information you need

I went out this last Thursday and it was packed. It was a little too cold for great traction but I did turn an 8.5 1/8 mile with a 2.14 sec 60 foot. My new clutch and flywheel seems to work fine but I didn't notice any differance with the lighter flywheel ?

It's going to be similar as your clutch will hold the power it was slipping stock and the flywheel slows you back down that much. Hey, you're only 4 car lengths out on me at the 1/8th. Better watch out! Heh.
