Anyone going? I am thinking about it since wednesday is getting rained out [Frown] . I have only been to the track once which was opening day this season, but would like to make it a habit of going. For those of you who don't know me, I have a 2000 v6 vert stang. Like I was saying, the 5th was the frist time I'de ever been, and I screwed up a couple times so I think I can do better this next time. On the 5th, I still managed to get a 13.8 on my first run ever...but even then I screwed up. I slowed down after I got to the signs that tell you the 1/4 mile time & speed....and didn't know I was supposed to keep going. Newbie mistake, I know. Maybe if Drew goes out there, he can run my car and see what he can come up with. Let me know if you plan to go, and if your not to embarrased to be seen there with a v6 [Smile] .

I don't know if I'll be there yet. Depends on if who else is planning on showing up.

A good time to get there for a street car that doesn't need a tire change is about 10 [patriot]

If so, I'll be shooting for an 11.XX too!!

We will prob show at 10, let the cars cool & run at 11. How late do they run on Sats?

That shouldn't be a problem. The green bomb is grounded 'til the new clutch goes in. And that requires funds... [Mad]

i want to go, but i don't think that i'm going to be able to make it for awhile. i just started a ten week photography class that meets on saturday mornings. figures that i'd get the car back on the road the week before the first class. there's one saturday the class doesn't meet, so i'll try to make it then. i might head down to the meet in milpitas instead...

If I do go It will only be as a spectator. I have a new toy and for those of you that know what it is Keep your damn mouth shut. It won't go on for another two weeks or so, but it will be an improvemento to say the lease. Time to start saving up for Palmdale!
