just to let everyone know, there is going to be a bunch of top fuel, a fuel, and mabey some gassers there.
that means not many runs for street cars. there's going to be long waits with these guys. anyone thats been to a test n tune before a big race knows what im talking about. also don't be suprized if something happends, like it did last week, it just happend to be the last run on the day.
it's going to be a great day to watch, but i know i wouldn't want to try and test on a day like it's going to be.

Jeff why doesn't the freaking dude that tells the cars to run make it fare since everybody pays 40 bucks,everybody should all have the same amount of runs? I just don't get it.

on the other hand I might come down for a little while but I have things to put on my car so maybe next saturday.

How much does it cost to go and watch? It'll be my first time ever on Saturday..might just want to watch how it goes first before I unleash my unstoppable 16 second car!

And does anyone know how long a drive it'd be from the Fremont area?

averaging 75-85 on the freeway I can do it door-door in about an hour and 40 minutes. It's about 120 miles on the dot.
