Default GAFBA Shootout at Silver Dollar Raceway

I would like to invite anyone interested out to SDR in Reynolds Ga. on the 25th of September to our bi-annual Shootout. I can almost guarantee that you will get more runs for your dollar than at any other Test&Tune. The track usually has great track prep and it's pretty much a sea level track so times are generally prety good. You don't have to sit in the lanes all day either. Pretty much drive up, take your run and either hot lap it or let it cool for a while, no need to hurry. You will get plenty of practice on your launching technique. You also have the time to make changes to your car and see if those changes actually help.

Here is a link to the post- http://www.gafba.com/forum_viewtopic.php?8.20048

I hope you join up and come on out.

Thanks. I was born and raised down there so I'm familiar with the weather. I was 22 when I moved here and I visit there several times a year so I know what it's like today.

I'm planing on going. Hopefully I'll have the forged motor in and I can turn the boost up a little. Was nice to meet you at the last shootout Bobby. Good luck with the move and new job. At least you will be close to family.

Definitly. Maybe a night at the track and I'll also lose some sleep for once and show up at a Hootas meet.

I should be there if the stars stay in alignment until then....
Between rain /heat, and work, this has been a dismal racing season for me.

I may go... all depends on school, work, and other miscellaneous factors. Hopefully though. It's just a looong drive from my house.
