They are working on Classes. Want to make sure we have cars to fill classes that we run. So far looks like there will be and Outlaw run what you brung. Two heads up classes. One for P/A and one for N/A. Those look definate for running. They are going to have at least one Bracket class and maybe a Six Speed class. there is also talk of one or two street classes.

Rules are still in the makeing. The track is already spoken for and we will be running that day.

Ah come on boys! This is our trip!

Total Est. Time: 27 hours, 20 minutes

Total Est. Distance: 1933.73 miles

Figuring 14MPG, We Can get up to 18MPG on flats BUT We have to go through The cascade and the rocky mountains to get there. Diesel just hit $3.50 here so lets say it goess to $3.75 by then.

SO math kicks out 140 Gallons(or so x2) for a cost of $1,050 round trip in fuel alone. Now figure food and hotels will easily Double that.

This does not even take into account the three days(Figureing 10-12 hours a day) of travel we are figuring one way. We might have three people but I am only sure one other will be a driver.

Might go through Cheyenne and Denver to hook up with some people and convoy. Safety in numbers! I know we are still working on a way to get Tony's(Speed Density) car to the event also.

So come on! Start your planning now!

So, is a job suposed to be easy? Should I just tell you and make it easy or have you work for it?

I have a full PM box, but will gladly tell you whenever I get around to cleaning it out, but you can research some yourself too. I have been an open book on here asking questions or commenting about everything thing I have done, so if you wanted to study hard you can start by reading all my posts...

Never mind don't do that or you will realize how dumb some of my first posts were...

OK start about a year or so back, I think that is when I astarted doing suspension mods...

Hope this helps...

I'd love to go but can't. Would like to meet many of you. No way can I afford a bar by next spring, and I don't expect my trans to last long after the nitrous is working. Goes in tomorrow for some minor work and a nitrous tune. It's 500rwhp or bust time.
