Tomorrow's the day. Just wanted to get a quick head count if possible. See you there for breakfast at Micky D's at 10am in front of the entrance to the raceway.

Yeah, tomorrow's going to be a great day for this.

Hey, if there are any of you that want to meet at the Holiday Inn in College Park, since you'll pass it anyways, we could all meet there and ride out together. It's right in front of Ikea on Rt. 1

What sort of tech inspection do they do? I might or might not kinda be missing an EGR valve...

well that was a freakin' blowout. Mike (PARacer) blew out his axle after trying to treat a stage 3 clutch like a stage 1 clutch, and I can't remember who else anybody was lol.

My best slip was 15.45 @ 90.9. This means, of course, that I suck at drag racing, as I know the car is capable of more than that. My best 60' time was 2.29, and that was on the last run when my tranny decided it was shifting for itself, *********, and somehow I was in 3rd by the time I was going 60. The stock '93 civic I was racing beat me :doh:. Very, very frustrating. Of course, that was after sitting in the lanes for TWO AND A HALF HOURS as the let the motorcycles go... twice... and the funny cars go... twice. I'm NOT going back to that strip again. I was about ready to puch a motherf*#%er in the face.

I got four runs in total. How did everybody else do?

Edit: I had three goals for today: Break 15.5 in the 1/4, break 2.3 in the 60', and not break the car in the process. I accomplished all three, so I'm happy!

X2 :thumb:

It was fun, minus the freaking wait. I got 2 runs in and I was not going to wait ANOTHER 2 hours to get a third one in.

I did a 15.5 my first run... didn't get the slip and I can't remember my 60 on that run :doh:

Second run was a 15.26 at 93.97 mph, with a horrible 60 of 2.485. I was running with my brother in his PGT in the next lane.

We got some good vids and I believe Andrew is uploading them.

It was nice to meet those of you that I had not met before and I look forward to seeing those of you that will be in Carlisle in June.
