The best way to get a good amount if passes in is to show up at 4:00 when the gates open. Go through tech and then get your butt to the staging lanes and wait. They will start running cars at 5:00. Usually get to make at least 2, sometimes three paractice runs before you even start bracket racing. Then it all depends on your driving capabilities.....lol Hope to see you out there.

you're lucky to get 1 practice run at Sears sometimes (but the track should kick some major ass, I assume it will be a faster track than Sacramento, esp. in the summer months. Possibly winter will be quicker at Sac. owing to the ~30-40 degree temps you can get)
