I went the past 2 years and had a great time both times. I love having the heads up class to run in as it makes things more interesting, not to mention the pro tree!!!

If you go, youll have a good time!

I've raced at them a few times. I plan on running in the pro street class. I'm hoping to run in the 9.2-9.3 range in the high 140's. My best mph has been 146.18

Thanks, I was up there this past Sat. I ran a 9.67@146.17 with a bad 1.49 60' time. I ran the tire pressure a little high (14lbs.) to get used to the top end.I have'nt raced a real fast car in a couple of years.This Sat. I plan on running a lower tire pressure and the 60's should hopefully get in the high 1.3's and bring my 1/4 times down a coupe of tenths.
If I was'nt running a cog belt I could run in street shootout but I will now run in street outlaw.
See you guys up there. Look for a white fox body saleen.

If you want to run heads up you can run factory stock.There's probaly going to be some pretty quick one's in that class or you can run in the ford bracket class.

The bracket class is on the top right just above the mod-motor class.
Since its your first time out I would go with the bracket class.There will probaly be some low 12 second cars in Factory stock and that will be tough to beat. But in bracket all you have to do is get a good reaction time and run consistant and you will have a good shot at winning a few rounds or more.It just depends on who you end up running against.Theres some good bracket racers who can cut great lights and run within a tenth of a second all day long.

See you guys up there. I switched to a serpintine belt and I'm now going to run in Street shootout (SS). I just hope the power does'nt fall of too much.
