I'm in... 
I know I've been a ghost on this board for like 3 years... But that's because I've spent 3 years restoring another car ground up (1965 Buick Skylark GranSport convertible - 445 Wildcat 3 speed...one of 123 made...that my dad gave me)... and now it's done.
Whatever. Our cars are never done. I've spent enough on it to take a break from it.
I'm in on the 1/2 mile and keeping my car as is and hoping to get over 145.

Google Clayton GA hotels, and that will give you your options brotha. The town is very small, I think there is only two hotels in that area but plenty more in the close neighbouring towns.

I can't wait. Here's my checklist for this year:
- Purchase CL65 - check
- ECU and TCU tunes - check
- Killer Chiller - Installed but not working
- Replace ABC pump - check
- Catless downpipes - received but not installed
- CAI - same as above
- Race fuel - needs to be purchased
There's still a chance I'll pull off a decent speed, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

I dont know where I am staying Stevie, all I know is that I am going up friday and coming back sunday lol.
Watching is $15 I believe, and get there early because alot of the faster cars run early and late in the day due to temps.
Also, dont get butt hurt if your traps are low, it is at 5000ft elevation with high humidity and hot. You wont have the DA in a bottle this year Anthony
