Hey man whats up? Don't be too nervous. I'll be getting there around 12, hopefully a little sooner. I'll be in a 95 blue camaro with shiney quad tips. If you want I can ride with you the first time down the track to help give you some pointers. What do you drive? You should be able to get in as many runs as you want, but I wouldn't push your car extreamly hard (i.e. 15+ runs) I'd say that the track will be open till 4 or 5 at night.

One thing to remember, when you enter the staging lanes, enter from bottom of the hill, DO NOT go in at the entrance closest to the track itself. They will get kinda pissy if you use the one up by the track. (it is a emergency exit if something goes wrong)

Where are you from? If you need any more info let me know at christian_huffman_73@hotmail.com or just post it on here

oh, i almost forgot, if you happen to be 17 or younger you need to have a parent to sign a release for you.

I don't think you'd need any of that. They've never asked for my licence or registration. You might bring a helmet if you have some mods done, otherwise i can loan you mine(when i'm not running) if you run faster than 9s. Make sure you wear jeans or pants and not shorts. They won't let u race in shorts

Well this sucks that it had to rain today.

The next test and tune is the 26th, I'm fairly sure I can make it, depends if I'll have to work or not.

Hey fastenuf, I'll be getting there about 10 (when the gates open). I'd like to beat the crowd to the tech lanes. If you want to show up then and shoot the shiat I can help you get oriented. I'll probably park off to the right as you come past the ticket booth, then move closer to the track after all the big boys get their spots picked out.

Hehe, I'll prolly stand out too, 17 year old punk, blue v6, shiney exhaust, thinks its the baddest **** ever. lol j/k

hope to see ya there.

I'm thinking maybe around 4:30.

BTW, when you guys come down there, look for me parked beside a blue older bodied lumina. Thats our little food shack, since the price of food and pop is so damn expensive there, me and a few friends are bringing a cooler full of munchies. stop by and put back a few....err pop's.
