In my opinion, They have a better show than IHRA or NHRA. It is in Cordova, IL June 3 and 4th. Tickets are a little on the pricey side @ $30 bucks a pop. Not sure how it is going to be this year, typically the Saturday night show is followed up by Fireworks and there is a display of one bad a** School bus VS. A jet rocket funny car. IF YOU CAN MAKE IT, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. It's one bad a** show you'll never forget!!!!

My prom was the first week of may, and graduation last sunday as well. Yours are getting to be really late.

I went to midnight madness there a couple times and it was pretty awesome, I'd be really tempted to go except I leave the 3rd for my class trip to Florida so unfortuantly I won't be able to make it this time. I really kinda want to run my car on the 1/4 just to see what times it will pull but I have more stuff coming now I need to put on anyway. Pulleys and a diablo tuner for starters. Then maybe i'll run it and see if I can pull a 16.

I know, my school is messed up. They like to screw our class for some reason...all four years. I hate them. Maybe I should get back to studing for my Spanish finial, rather than crusing the boards on here.

For those who can make it. I called Cordova. It is positively Firday and Saturday. All Day Friday and Saturday (possibly morning) but afternoon and night for sure. There are going to be no fireworks this year. :-( Anyway's I picked up two 2 day passes for $25 a piece. If you are only going one day they are $25 each at the door and $35 for both days. You can get them at O'reillys Auto parts cheaper, stop by one on your way out there and they are $10 cheaper (for 2 day). Probably $5 off for a one day pass.

speaking of chicago schools, today I was at six flags up there and there had to be a million little 8th graders. 400 different schools and they each had their own "Class of 05" tee-shirt. At first I looked at them and was like no way in hell that kid is 18. Good thing they were young though cause they all left by 3 and the park was empty!
I never knew "graduating" 8th grade was such an accomplishment.
Next do all chicago schools have fun field trips like that? Cause I know our's always sucked.

I was out there today. It was nothing special. Mostly 9.5-17 second cars. Maybe 3 dozen or so spectators.

I remember in eight grade I also had a t-shirt like that. We also go to go to medieval times and then we went to Washington, DC for a week.
