Hmm, only a 5 hour flight. I might have to see this for myself and make it a "business" trip.

Sounds awesome Ahmad, gotta make this and see if I can break the C55 N/A record! Should have all of my pending mods done by then

Jake, I was hoping to get a Eurotuner to get a race gas tune, but it's not listed on the site now, is it no longer available???

Cool. TimmayFest is a great event but is in no way associated to this event.

If this becomes an over night type of event would there be interest in a party bus to DC or else where? There is NOTHING to do by the track. After hearing and only imagining what took place at TimmayFest, it sounds like the way to roll.

Already thought about that lol. I think we're going to do a dyno day Friday also and there's a place not far from the dyno shop that's perfect for some roll racing too. Cars/bikes do regular 200+mph pulls there so we might get picked on lol. I'm just hoping/praying to get my car back together by then.

Is this the new hand-held shown on the C63 section of your site? Not shown in the C55 section

Thanks, hope to see you before MIR!

Sorry I should have provided more details. MIR is Maryland international raceway and its located in Maryland. Cost will be $100/car to race as much as you want from 9am-5pm. I will start a new thread with more details as we get closer to the event date. Feel free to ask any more questions
