I am going, and now that I put my catchcan in, all I have to do is get battery tie downs and I can even run. It will be my first time at any track. Do I need a waiver cause I'm under 18?

All I have done is put my overflow tank in my car and put battery tie downs on. I don't know if I will pass tech because I have never been there before, but I think I will be fine.

If you don't want to catch a lot of scrutiny, tell them that it runs 14's when they ask you "how fast is it", but you've brought your helmet just in case!

Get back in the garage! I don't want to see you posting until 1 AM. Infact, you're banned from this site until 1 AM [Mad]

They must have been running for 24hrs straight. You will have quite a long time between runs Monday.

my sister is going, better not rain, this is her 3rd try at getting a time slip.

Hiddnos is right, it's like 3-4 hours between your two timed runs and your first elimination run. Then after that half the people go home so it only take 1-2 hours, then after that you can get 3-4 runs in per hour depending on how long you keep winning and how many people are in your class.

First 3 runs usually take 5 or 6 house, it really put the DRAG in drag racing.

Did you end up making your first trip to the track? If so, what did you run? I heard 5.OBrian ran a 13.2@102mph with your same mods [Wink]

I went to SAC saturday but, for like the 5th time (for multiple reasons), i wasnt able to run [Mad] . It got fogged out for the third week in a row (i think), and im contemplating if i should try it again this saturday. From the looks of the weather now, im not so sure..
