NorCal AMG drag racing - 5/13 at Sacto Raceway

For those who want to meet up for a night of racing, it's the first dry Grudge night of the season at Sacramento Raceway this Saturday, and there should be plenty of quick street cars. Attendance so far:

11-sec turbo BMW M3
11-sec RENNtech S65 (dyno'd >600 RWHP)
11-sec RENNtech SL65 (or perhaps it's faster )

Anyone else joining?

That was mine, although it wasn't debadged. Fun car -- never did get a perfect pass, but it turned in decent times anyway.

Unfortunately, I can't make tonight's racing - have to jet off to a conference tomorrow. I plan to be out again in June, however .
