Me and Gross will be there for sure. Possibly with a real loud porche, pulled the mufflers off yesterday cause he got a wild hair on improving performance or some shit.

I'm going early to open the gates and get things ready. I think we are going to run Evan's freshly re-powered BMW 325 for fun.
Will any of you be setting a up a caravan to the track? Those trips are always filled with some fun jackassery.

You can now expect to see a Jet car make a couple hits durring our track rental! We will also have a number of 10.5" tire race cars and a Nostalgia drag car making Test and Tune runs throughout the day. This is a nice bonus for us all to check out.

Alright everybody...Today is the day!
I just talked to Cordova at 7:50am this morning and they plan to have clear skys by race time at noon. It's dry there now with overcast skies. All the rain is headed to Peoria. Perservier for great racing weather because we will have to probably drive through the rain to get to sunny skies.
See you there!

Braving the weather? Psh, It was great out! I set a new personal best after my auto swap, 11.4 and another 11.4 to back it up lol
Have to work on the tune to stall it up faster. Took waaaay too long. I played around with the tune today and didnt get anywhere
Had a great time!

wish we could've made it, too late of a saturday for both me and gross. How many cars were there? Hope you had a good turnout.
On a side note, maybe we can hit BWW sometime before the end of the month. Gross in town till start of july.

Good to see you again Hult... That is one of the sweetest looking 1G DSM's I've seen in a long time. Good to hear your numbers have improved. If you don't me asking, what was your personal best with the manual trans?
BTW - When I left peoria Sunday morning it was like driving in a hurricane. I assume that's why most from our area didn't make it.
