Anything in the works? I noticed on Norcal-ls1, they have started a thread about it. What about us?

I'll be ready in about a month. Hopefully I won't be #3 on the list this time (behind only
Norman and John91coupe) Although I am hoping to be in the 10's SOON

I think drew@cafords.com is in talks with norcal-ls1 about this. Look for more details to leak soon.

As for who races, it is up to both sides to decide. If the side (A) objects to questionable picks of cars on side (B), side (B) will have to respect the objection. This year, just like last, the goal is to get cars on both sides matched in ET as closely as possble.

If you raced at this event last year and have input/suggestions/comments for this years race, feel free to post it on this thread or email it to drew@cafords.com

How about a Ford vs Chevy in June and a CaliforniaFords internal shoot out in July?

Racing in the heat of the summer was a bit much IMO. The asphalt that day was over 130 degrees!
I say March, April, or early May. Early enough in the year that it's not WAY too freakin' hot (track rules require winter clothes!), but warm enough for a good turnout & BBQ.

Our options as far as dates go are very limited. If heat was a major issue for the racers, then mid June is probably the best that can be done.

Thats not how it works.

Don't you remember last year?

Get in early, just us. Get the BBQ's going and race by ourselves before grudge even starts and then geting a lane to ourselves all night.....this year may not be the same, but it deffinatley isn't just picking a grudge night.
