Sorry bro, I gotta race the 55 in the CLS form> Im sick of people saying the 63 is SLOWER than the 55!!!!The 63 should race an UNMODDED 55. Or one with just the ECU tune.

There's a ton of potential for dream matchups. We should get some real "closure" from this meet.

Ummmhh

I hear there is going to be a heat wave this weekend where sac gets up to 100.

Someone want to confirm this? If so I'm not that eager to go testing in that weather.

For those of you worried about the weather...

It might get a little warm in Sac but usually you get a nice cool breeze at the track... especially at night. I wouldn't be too concerned. It might hit 100 tomorrow but highs around 90 for Saturday.

BTW, it's pretty rare for my car to be one of the slowest in a group. Well, I'll be sure to get off the line first. Maybe I'll go at the first yellow!

Can I ask something?

Was the rotten track prep something new for Sacto (meaning one time thing)

Rogerv and Trey have really put down some smokin times in the past.

Any regulars have any input. I really wanna make the trek down there, but to drive for 8 hours to go sideways would really suck.

Yeah I'd like to know as well ...

I came back and I KNOW two of my flats were due to bolts and screw etc on the track.

BTW found out my front was flat as well .... DUH! Huge screw!

This time I"m bringing another set of Rim/Tires!

LOL,

There are seemingly faster cars attending this latest round. May be a good night for a six pack. Maybe I will bring some wippets and throw em in the air intake :-) No worries man you will have a great time and its about what you can do in your car not trying to outrun the SLR

im no expert but i can tell you this if you dont use traction controll you will (and i did) go down the track sideways. i was lucky to have a fast car in the other lane cuzz i came close to the center and im sure a slower car would of freaked out. not having no clue how to race at a strip i put up 11.7 so im sure if i knew how to drive better i can get to 11.5

I'm not sure about the track prep but I did notice my times were a little better in the right lane. Also, the left lane didn't capture any 60' or I4 times. Hopefully that will be fixed.

You know the track prep is crap when all the pro cars blow the tires off at the 20 ft mark.

Adam, if any car is really new (under 5,000 miles) pls post the mileage on the car. I'm sure many would like to know that and the type of gas (octane) used.

Thx,
Pablo
