I figured to keep these latest updates at the top of each page for easy finding....

*****>> Event Update: I just came back from the track. I met with the track owner and gave him the money + list of drivers and cars and went over a few other things. So far, the weather has been cooperating beautifully, so we are still on schedule. Gates will open at 8:00 a.m. and first race to start at 9:15 a.m. unless weather conditions change. If everything goes as scheduled, then racing will end at 4:00 p.m.. In addition, because we felt that it's not fair for James to cover all the food and drinks by himself (although he never said anything), we've decided to charge a small fee of $10 per spectator to help out with the food expenses. Here is a few summary of latest updates/notes:
  • Gates will open at 8:00 a.m.
  • If weather doesn't interfere, racing will start at 9:15 a.m. and end at 4:00 p.m.
  • There will be a charge of $10 per spectator at the gate.
  • If you will be taking pictures or video, please make sure to remove license plate info from pictures and videos. Also, out of respect to some participants, please talk to me at the track before shooting video so I can provide you with a complete list of who prefers to stay off camera completely.
  • If anybody is going to drive somebody else's car, then that second person needs to fill out a separate tech card with the same car info unless that person has already filled out a tech card for their own car, in which case, they only need to sign the tech card of the person whom their car they will be driving. I'm not sure if that came out right
  • Please keep an eye on this thread especially throughout Friday night in case of any last minute changes or updates that may come up.

Track Address:
============
Auto Club Famoso Raceway
33559 Famoso Rd.
McFarland CA. 93250

I was speaking to Eloy and Joe about that car. It sounds like an absolute monster.

Kenny's too slow to run with Rab Dog.

Seriously though, he's a little down on power. After Famoso, he's going to get a new tune.

He was low on power in those vids. Hopefully, there will be a rematch with both Kenny and Rab Dog at full power vs the stroker.

You are smart, Ive been trying to tell some of my friends to leave around 5pm but they say they are leaving at 6am. That means they will leave at 630am and not even get there till around 9am and will miss about 60 minutes after they sign in.

Recent Update: as some of you know, I've been requesting (more like pushing) track management for additional special track prep as I'm expecting 4 cars to "possibly" dip into the 10s.... Well..... track owner just called me and said he just had the track pre-prepped very thoroughly for tomorrow's event and that they will finish up the final steps early tomorrow morning . Blake (track owner) also wanted me to thank everyone for participating and that he is looking forward to tomorrow's event as much as we are
