Post ANYBOBY go to the No time midnight race?

Just wondering if anyone went to the races at Orlando speed way in the beginning of June. Was it good?

Did they flag you by hand or were the lights running and just no times on the board?

How was the crowd?

was it alot of imports?

I think it might be fun.... any comments?

I believe they run again this weekend.

Think they used the lights. I wanted to make it but the car wasn't done. I might go on the 6th if I can get the F**king code 42 to go away.

I can never do it again since my car is wrecked, but I had a LOT of fun that night. At first it kinda sucked not getting timeslips, but it was fun knowing that even if you didn't do some spectacular great lowest ET ever, you still smoked the guy in the other lane. It was pretty funny watching this AWD Eclipse break right off the line... this is after he asked me to race him and then was talking with his buddies and pointing at me through the staging lanes... And the fact he said his car is all stock except for a different turbo, except it didn't sound very stock...

Oh yeah, they do use the lights, pro style tree (all 3 yellows come on and then the green goes). And the winner light works still...
