My mighty LT1 may be dead. I'll find out for sure by Friday night. Would I be allowed to run my American truck (2002 Trailblazer)? I prepaid for 2 classes. Thanks.

can you register at the gate? I don't want to preregister and then not have the car running. It's iffy right now as to whether or not all the bugs are worked out of it...

Kazman, yes as long as it's an american car and it meets the requirement of the class tire wise you can run it.

Zupman, yes you can pay at the gate the price is the same. We just need pre pay numbers to lessen the cost of the track. Hope you can make it there. It's starting to look good this year.

I still havn't run my car yet this year. I was planning to go to the Grove 5/11 but ran into a little argument with my wife the other day, something about it being mothers day and our anniversary the same weekend :rolleyes: sheesh! Anyway, she won and I'm not going to the one single Fbody event at the Grove all year which is ten freaking minutes away from me!!!

:mad: :mad: :mad:

Can you tell I'm mad I'm not going? :D

Anyway, I will be at the AIS 5/17, no doubt :)

Gregg, you gota keep em happy on the home front. The engine should of been done this winter. Very tired LT1. I have no power, and it doesn't want to rev. I'm in the process of replacing the wires again. If the new wires doesn't do the trick it is something internal. valves or pistons. Its been over-reved a number of times. If that's the case I'll just drop in a crate engine. Bad part will be that the car will be down for 3 to 4 weeks. See ya at Cecil either way. :cool:

Is the car throwing any codes? Opti or coil come to mind, I would check each of those out. Hope you get it straightened out soon, maybe it's not something major.

I just checked the weather forecast on Yahoo for Rising Sun, MD for Saturday:

Tomorrow: Showers in the morning tapering off to drizzle in the afternoon. High 56F. Winds ENE at 10 to 15 mph. Chance of rain 50%.

Doesn't sound to promising :(

Are they going to reschedule it? I don't know if I want to drive all the way there in the rain on 1/2 worn Nitto's & 4:10's to find out :alert:

I ain't afraid to race in the rain. Trailblazer has AWD and antilock brakes. :p I can launch from a puddle and not spin.
