| I'm headed out there for sure, as I wanna get my stock Lightning ET record still, I'll to TNT and Friday night street legals if they have them, but I have thought about competing this year. Don't know exactly how all this IHRA business is going to be. Looking at their book, I think they'd class my truck as "Truck-stock" and likely the 14.00-14.99 bracket.
Anyone else been lookin? |

| Good to hear! I saw that it was auctioned off, but never heard an update about what they intended to do with the facility. |

Yes they will be running it this year. C.W. is the one setting everything up and he always has updates about it on FB. I know he's pretty stoked. should be a lot of racing from the sound's of it. _________________ R.I.P Josh " King Of The Streets" Whitcomb 10.17.75--06.13.10 '  '  |

| Here is to hoping people show up to race and/or spectate. It would be nice if the business was actually viable moving forward. |

| Would love to go, only if there is a large event I can make it to.
For an extra 60 minutes of driving I can go to places like Bandimere and HP raceway, but the atmosphere I'm sure would not be as good. |

| If you want to be covered insurance wise you gotta buy an ihra membership too. cause your nhra one wont cover it. But the classes will be all the same as last year im sure just the feature cars wont be the same. |

| What does "time only" mean? They don't give you a trap speed? |

You get a full timeslip, but it means you won't be competing, only running to get your times. |

| On that note, is there a limit to Time Only runs, and does it cost the same? |

| They don't say on the site, I don't know If I want to do time only or sportsman. Probably just time only, gonna be the first time out with a new combo, so I don't think bracket racing would be a good idea, I still have tuning to do when I get there.... |

| i think everyone who has plans on going racing this weekend should get there cars as close to ready as possible and just show up.this will be the first race of the year so i am sure they will let u slide as long as it is not major.make sure u have belts,helmet and a jacket if u need it.dont worry much about a cage or fancy belts on this race.if the car will run faster then a 11.0 et then maybe worry about it in may.just make sure all that can show up and or race that would be great.if we want a place to race we need to support it racing or watching.hope to see everyone there. |

Saw the post but was pretty sure that I hadn't seen your car, sorry to hear. Keep wrenching on it, you have some time before the next scheduled race. |

yeah I am still waiting on a new fuel regulator which I am hoping is the problem. Oh well it gave my time to install my suspension! |
