lets stay as late as possible haha make my trip even more worth while! hahaha

Let's start as early as possible and keep the same 6 o'clock quiting time. The track gets too slippery towards the end of the night and things could get ugly. Famoso cools down very very fast....

So who will be preparing the sacrifice for the weather gods? haha
Lets pray for awesome weather!

Mo's lagging this year, the year before he had the weather calender posted online to keep us all up to date. Where's the love Mo...?????
I'm hoping for clear skies with 55 degree weather, anything close to zero DA with low humidity will be great!

I hope you all have a blast.

I think the DA will be anywhere from 500-1000. Unfortunately it's very rare that we'll ever see DA like the east coast. Either way, I consider anything under 1000 to be very good weather. Also keep in mind that Famsoso is at 600+ feet elevation.

Last November, we had a DA that started out around 200 ft and climbed to 375 ft then kept dropping all the way down to -82 ft around 6:30 pm. I hope we get something similar this year.

Still don't know what car we are bringing. We might have a C63, E55, STI, Or My SL55. Who knows.

I just got off the phone with Rich from DC. The owner of the E55 is out of state with the car right now. I really wanted to bring that car too. Rich really wants to bring his STI.

I can't believe we are only 1 week away and I still don't have a tune.... It's all up to Jeremy, we were supposed to do it tomorrow but it got pushed back. Hopefully we get it all done in time...

Fast cars in general....
F***, my GTR won't be ready for this event...
If I don't find a set of wheels and drag radials for the other
boring sedan, I'll just tag along with my friend's 458 and watch
you guys having fun.

I'm in the same boat, and well... I seriously doubt Ill go at this point. I am still going to finish up my parts this week, but there is no way to get my tune fixed, and I don't want to drive 5 hours to watch. Oh well. There will be other events. I am e-mailing Jeremy now, and will see if there is any chance of getting in this week, but again.. not looking good
