A Prius because I'm green
Being able to predict 10's like it's nothing....
I'll get there one day...I hope. 
I'm ready as I'll ever be. I don't know how much of a match up I will be for you but I'll do what I can. I'm jus glad that I get to see yer car run. It's going to be EPIC! I'm just aiming for a new PB. I'm findin out A LOT of people are very interested in what I'm going to run. It's weird...
I wonder what I'm going to run too??? We'll just have to wait and see.

Your car will be simply amazing and a total head turner. Did you pick up Sals wheels? I've been thinking of getting a set of these CLK rims but I have a hard time parting with my CCW drag setup. Too nice of setup to get rid of.
BTW...Sun, could you please let Ed know I can't make it. I really wanted to but I need to take care of some stuff tomorrow. I'll be there soon, maybe next week. Thanks again Sun and sorry for flaking but things just didn't work out in my favor.

Haha...we'll see how well I know my car. If the DA is below 500 I think 10's will happen for sure but you never know. I've ran my car enough to have a pretty good idea what I could do if I'm launching well. Without a good 60' time 10's will not happen, it's all in the short time for us.

(I wish I can but not my call this time). Anybody who was not on the list originally WILL NOT be able to race but is welcomed to join us as a spectator. The track already has a list of participants and have taken out an insurance policy for a specific number of cars, etc....However, if somebody happens to cancel in the last minute, I can add one more from the waiting list. So as long as the count does not change, we're okay.
On the bright side, the weather at the track has been AWESOME today. If the weather tomorrow is anything like it is today, we'll have a great day. Very Sunny but still very cold at a high of 61 F creates good racing weather and almost optimum conditions

I took the day off today to go check on the track. They are prepping it real good right now
It is so Sunny right now so the track is so freakin sticky yet temps are only 58 F.... very freakin cool
Looks like conditions are going to be great tomorrow....
I am actually about to make a test run in my car

is anyone bringing a meter to calculate DA at the track?
I too would like to see an updated list of who is going and what they're bringing
