Car is finaly here! Anyone going to Temple/Acadamy Dragway tonight?

Well after about 45 days my car is ready for pick up. I plan on going to the local track down the street. Anyone going to be there? Looking forward to meeting some of the f-body guys around here. Does TAD require a helmet? How much is it to run on friday nights? My car should go 12 somthing so I hope they arent strict on the helmet rule! How is their tech inspection?


Thanks,
Jeff

No. No one answered me so I went on saturday. I did manage to run a 13.0 @ 110 with a 2.1 60 Ft. on street tires. That does seem like a slow track though. I think I tore somthing up in the rear of my car. Now it makes a grinding/rubbing noise when the suspension flexes.

What does your car look like? Mine is silver with black stripes, single tailpipe, on SS rims. Maybe I'll see you around?

Tell me about it. I ran a 13.0 @108 in Maryland 3 yrs ago. I go to Germany for 3 yrs. I added a hotcam kit, headers, 4.10s, custom tune and a exhaust and now I do the same but with a extra 2 MPH. I know that Md has better air but damn...

How far is HRP? Good track?
