Exclamation Georgia wannaGOFAST 1/2 MILE Sept 2016 - who's going

Registration opens tomorrow at 8am EST. I always seem to forget so putting this reminder up for the fellas. I'm shooting for Saturday this time.

Looking forward to how the car performs this time. I was losing a lot of steam on the top of 3rd and 4th last time due to IAT. Hoping the meth/water combined with the trunk tank should help that and the 82mm tb should help her breathe up top. Also threw in a stall when I took the trans apart and rebuilt it.

So who else is going and what set up will you be running?
