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!

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

I went to SAC saturday but, for like the 5th time (for multiple reasons), i wasnt able to run . 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..
