Alright.. so Friday it is?

Parking by the concession stand would be difficult to do. What time are you guys going to head out there?

I figure I'll get there around 7:30? It just depends what you guys want to do

Since I just got my custom exhaust work done I'll bring out my new ride View attachment 420749

Actually I saw that the other day on I-10 and had to get a picture of it. It's a van if you didn't notice

Actually i'll be in the sloth that looks something similar to this (a few changes since the picture was taking such as chrome lugnuts/painted rotor hats/painted rotors) View attachment 420750

My car will be in the shop early Friday though i'll still be there ready to run. I figured getting the engine mounts installed would be best to do BEFORE bringing the car back to the track.

My car isn't very picture worthy

Bring your buddy if he drives something in the 15+ range

It's going to be cold Friday, hopefully the wind won't be too bad though?

@ the drawing. So it looks like far end even with the concession stand. I'll get there around that time as well since the weather is cool we don't have to really allow it to get late to run.

btw- it's cold right now!!

Also, forgot to mention that I went ahead and had the car worked on today instead of Friday. The engine mounts helped out greatly and the car now feels normal without the damn vibration

I guess i'll show times if thats what the rest of you guys are going to do, since that will allow me to run against you. Don't expect much from a car that averages 2.28 60' and 15.23 1/4 with a best of 15.14 though I'll shoot for a 14.85

That won't hurt your times any, just might be a bit harder to slow down for the exit

Hope you get it worked out in time--I'd hate for you to not be able to run when the weather is finally cold!
