Stangman, sign up brother. The more the merrier. I don't think you'll have much to worry about. I run on stock street tires, drive it out then slowly squeeze the trigger. Makes for *****ty 1/4 (11.40 ish) et but mph are like 126/7.

I always get jumped out of the hole (2.10 60ft) and try to run down everybody on top. It's all fun.

See ya there.
George

Hello....anyone home? Hello...........can I get some love? What time do the festivities get started on Saturday morning? I need to scoot out of there by noon or so. I want to see if my latest mods will get me a sub 12 second pass on street tires. Any guys from the North or West burbs planning on meeting and making the trek together? Last but not least are there any spots still available?

One more question, do they sell un-leaded racing fuel at the track or anywhere near the track? I only run 98-99 in my car and since I'm driving the car down and not trailering I will need enough fuel for the return trip.

OK, now I feel dumb as a box of rocks...I don't have a Pay Pal account, nor do I even know where to begin to look to set on up. Can anyone help my dumb a$$ out on this one? I usually just use my credit cards or cash to buy stuff.

Wristbands will be issued at the driver's meeting at 9:00 a.m. - a change from last time. A few folks misplaced theirs, and this should avoid any issues.

Jerry - Kids are welcome, as long as they are supervised (duh) and aren't afraid of loud noises. No one under the age of 16 may be a passenger on the strip.

Drinks/snacks will be provided, food will be available at the Snack Booth for purchase.

Jim, you are officially on the list. Is that enough love?

Dasrok8; I'm gonna be up in your neck of the woods next week, staying in Birmingham, picking up an F car at Cauley with a friend. We are going to try to sample some of the local female talent, last time I was up there I hit a grand slam. What are some new summertime hot spots? A couple years ago we hit up a bar at the Townsend and some Dirty Martini place or something, I forget the exact name. When is the Dream Cruise?

Thanks,
