Default Thunder Jam event at U.S. 41 Saturday June 9th
Hey guys/gals,

U.S. 41 Dragway is having an event this Saturday. Gates open at 4pm, testing starts at 5pm, and eliminations start at 7pm. It is an ALL RUN bracket, open to any car/truck running 13.99 or faster. There will also be a TEN.0 Heads up Class, 100% payback; and an Outlaw True 10.5 Limited street class, also 100% payback. It is $20 for adult spectators and $5 for children 12 and under. For racers running their cars, it is $55.

And afterwards...

Yeah I know, but Nationals are $55-65 and all you get to do is watch. For $55 at 41, I get to compete and watch as well. (when I get eliminated, lol)

I haven't put the intake on yet. I am going to tomorrow. I'll let you know how it fits and runs on Saturday

I haven't had any time to test it. Saturday will be the first time I have raced the car in awhile. I have two hours before eliminations start. That SHOULD be enough time

my black car hooked better and went faster on them compared to a slick. That is why I went with them again on the new car.

He was on it all night. I'll be back. I have to figure out what is going on under the car and making that weird whining noise.

No, I didn't get home until 1:30 and slept in. I have a wake to go to today.
