Anything fun going down in Socal this weekend?

I'm going to be in town (Irvine and Mission Viejo) this week and I'm looking to for a excuse to get away from the in-law... Great people, just to much holiday drama. I'll have my car and I'm just looking to have a little fun.

How does Friday night sound? My car will be at Vadim's until, hmmm...I'm guessing at least 5:00 or so. PM me with your number and I'll give you a buzz.

Never lined up against a SL600 before, should be fun. By looking at the times on Dragtimes.com I'm guessing I'm going to get a whoppin on my end...but it's all in good fun.

Sounds good! There aren't any NON tuned SL600's on Dragtimes, that 1 listed is from Car&Driver it had RENNtech ecu/tcu, I haven't run my 600 on any track yet (live out in Santa Barbara, but go to LA frequently) anyhow I'm thinking it'll be a good race, My 600 seems to run stronger than stock stats would predict...

What stage exactly is VRP600?

I believe it's a stage 3 or so. I'm not quite sure because I don't have a airbox or cam... Either way it will be a blast. Do you usually run from freeway speeds, like 50-120 ore something like that? Not sure if I want to be on the kill story side of things...LOL. Maybe a few others will come join in for some fum.

For who's ever down maybe we could meet up somewhere. Maybe Thericker will chime in and recommend a meeting place.

Unfortunately Sean and I never had a chance to hook up on either Friday or Saturday. We are still going to try and hook up late tomorrow. I'm still hoping it happens but if it doesn't there's always next time. I'm always in Socal, especially during the holidays.

What's the word? Let me know if anyone is down for some late runs. I've been doing the whole Disneyland thing today and I'm anxious to get some runs in. Let me know.
