    Yes. We'll leave McDonald's at 7:45 AM. The boys should meet there before that to chat and get acquainted; earlier if they want breakfast.

    Erik, bring three! I'll stock up my cooler as well. No beer though. No glass bottle are allowed on the premises.

    ***Something all racers should remember:
    -bring a helmet or borrow one
    -wear long pants and a long-sleeve shirt
    -make sure you remove all loose items from the car before you race (My things will be set aside with our people)
    -have $37 if you plan to race and $10 per passenger who wants to get in
    -bring a bit extra $$ for food, gas, water, towing (hope not):I
    -have your driver's license ready
    -have all safety precaution checks performed on your vehicle before the trip (oil change/oil level check, air filter, sparkplugs, fuel filter, etc.)
    -yadda, yadda, yadda...

    I was just thinking that if we all left earlier, we wouldn't be in line that long and we'll find a spot to park the cars easier and closer to the restrooms.

    Is 7 AM too early for everyone? 7 AM, as in, we leave from McDonalds...

    Kong, that's cheap nitrous. :p Remember, it's flammable.

    <u>So... what does the group think about leaving early?</u>
    Of course, you'll get less sleep, but you'll have a better day. Before people begin racing, you can check out the rides and even choose who you want to race. :D

    I'm sure that when the group leaves, no one will still want to stay behind. Anyone else that won't make the specified time will have to make the trek themselves.

    Time trials start at 9 AM.

    So the time is set:

    dont' think 7am is too early, the few times i've gone i left at 6am, so i got there a little before 7, so 7 would be no prob if i go.

    I'm too tired to post pictures tonight.

    At "Slippery Falls," this was the best I could pull out of my 100K-mile RS:
    R/T: ... .158
    60': ... 2.058
    330: ... 6.165
    1/8: ... 9.631
    MPH: ... 70.88
    1000: .. 12.656
    1/4: ... 15.222
    MPH: ... 87.80

    This is what you can acheive if you have 124 HP! :D

    I ended up racing only boosted cars, dammit! }:) Of course I lost!

    Today was awesome guys!! Maybe next time I'll have a vehicle thats safe to race. The only bad part was all those Hondas...we all need to go and show them up next time....get the subies out there in force and represent. I would've rather passed out of heat exhaustion than watch another two civics go at it. That white old skool Corolla was one of the sickest things I've ever seen. My sunburn is all your fault, Erik}:) and nice 14 flat today Justin :cool:

    Man i was up from Moorhead for this. I was hella pissed cause my cousin in the yellow evo only got to do 3 runs in while we sat out there for like 3 hours and got to watch his car go 3 times total. Nothin like a bunch of 16 second hondas screamin down the track. Ill never rush back to that place, I like Interstate dragways alot better and I recommend you guys come here to. You'll get your moneys worth..trust me
