So have any of you guys heard of this and are thinking about going?

Ive heard there is a 3 mile runway and you see how high you can trap in 1 mile.

Anyone know how to calculate non-drag forces? Im curious to see what my car could do... Im thinking somewhere near 180 mph :D

Standing mile racing, I read about that in GM High Tech once. Seems prety cool.

omg... im getting giddy about this. I never thought i would EVER be allowed to drive a car 150+... now i get a chance. I dont think i can possibly understand how much fun that is gonna be once i get up to the starting line.

$135 is kinda heavy though. I think im DEFINATELY shelling out the cash though.

Man, if I were you I'd lower that a little. 255 just doesn't seem like a safe speed to be drivin around town at. :p

I use tunercat, I can flash any 95 or 94 TA.

As for 255 being to high, NAH my rev limiter at 6200 in 6th should hold
me to 200 :D
