1/4 Mile Track Day / Meet Oct. 31. Fontana, CA

Only $20 to race. The weather should be nice and I'm hoping the MB turnout just as good.

Sorry I could not go. I have been in the past and shoulda warned you guys but it was still a great time.

13 at Fontana is nothing to be shamed about especially when facing some mechanical and environmental obstacles

Bump this for the next street legal drags day: Sat., Jan., 09, 2010! Sat., Jan., 09, 2010!

The stupid track just posted their 2010 calender on Monday the 28th of Dec. This late posting of the next street legal date will work to our advantage because the turnout will be low as a result. We have to go to this for three reasons: 1) The next track day for us isn't until April! http://www.autoclubspeedway.com/Tick...of-Events.aspx , 2) Cool weather = better E/Ts, 3) Short notices like this always hurts the turnout--- the place will be ours! Lots of runs!
Regards, Eric
