    Like a sport compact day?

    Are all the days bracket style? Or can you just make pass after pass somedays?

    The sport compact days are all you can run from open until the early afternoon. The afternoon is bracket racing.

    iirc it's around $40.

    I would say your best times are gonna be at the first event. Also, get your good runs in early (after letting your car properly cool from the long drive out there) since they don't prep the track at all...


    For Eli:

    This is drag race I am assuming? Or do they have a road course?

    best 60ft I've cut at Rockfalls is a 1.71 with 245 wide tires and -3 degrees camber... By mid morning, the track is littered with chunks of no-season tires.

    Again, because of the no-traction Honda 'tards that think a burnout is a fast launch. :rolleyes:

    sometimes. I've had as many as 20 runs (with time to cool between runs) and as little as 8 runs. I think it depends a lot on temperature.

    Yes you'll be smelling your clutch after every run but it's a lot better then smelling gear lube.

    Explain plz.

    If you don't shock load the trans and don't honda shift each gear, you're more likely to burn up the clutch or break an axle imho. Learn how to launch and don't shift like a monkey.

    You can get plenty of feedback regarding you as a driver (based on 60-ft time and reaction time) and the car (trap speed) without slamming into every gear looking for the fastest et at a slow track.

    Don't be a bench racer, Sean. Come out and play.:biggrin:

    Also, by the sounds of it, there should be a couple fast Subarus...
