Jason - this one is practically in your back yard, and you can't make it? I'm shocked!

I should be there, either with the 55 or if I find one in time, a 65...

lol its 41 if your car isnt leaking anything they dont care. i was also wondering if i could possibly bring my other car(need to get a few thing dialed in) if you are running that fast you should have a 12pt cage, safety shut off, helmet, fire suit, scatter and flywheel sheild(if its an auto), window net, extended wheel studs, 5pt harness. im sure i left a few things out. but its a supra which most people use them to street race so it has to look like a "street car" so i doubt it has all of the needed safety equipment but they dont car to much at 41. gotta love supra's

Are there any diesel guys looking to drag race? I've never done one of these before, but thought it would be cool to go against another E300 or comparable car.

I'm working on it, I have to get out of something with the little lady, I am about 90% sure I'm going to be there, but don't want to commit until I'm 100% sure. I don't want to take somebody elses spot or leave sombody holding the bag financially. I will know for sure in the next day or two.

Diesels are all the craze, you should bring it out. I own a trucking company and one of my mechanics is into the diesel drag scene, there are (basically) stock 4x4 Dodge Rams pick-up out there running in the 11's. I own a new M-B ML 320 CDI (diesel) and I have been investigating what is out there, it looks pretty cheap easy to get an extra 100 ponies out of it...and the torque numbers are insane. Diesels have been big in Europe for years, I am finding there are plenty of tuners out there working on them. Just look what Audi is doing with them.

Rain or Snow in Chicago? Never.


I'm waiting on word of a rain date. Worst case, everyone gets a refund and we meet the following week for a Test & Tune at the same track. It won't be private, but at least we could race and have our own lane.
