Friday is 90% Imports staging with their rear tires, never been on wednesday..but It could be no worse. I wouldn't recommend going to spectate at either..those days are for racing your street car. The track prep is non existent on these nights, so nothing fast shows up. I'd check out their site and hit up the next big race, next one Iam going to is the Canadian street Nationals towards the end of the month http://www.canadianstreetcarnationals.com/
Its going to be very good....

I've been going on Friday nights lately. Sure, there are a few rice burners, but I have also seen exotics and many muscle car out on Friday's.

When I was there 2 weeks ago, there was a Lamborghini Gallardo, a Porsche 911 GT3 RS, and a 911 GT2 making many runs on the strip. I got to run against both the GT2 and the GT3. I also saw a ratty old CRX (complete with faded paint and crooked exhaust) take out the Lambo. Both of them ran high 11's by the way.

Friday nights are actually fun. From what I hear, Wednesday night is the night to go if you want to get a lot of runs in. Apparently only about 20 cars show up; they are hurting for business on Wednesdays.

The Porsches where both consistantly in the mid-12's. The Gallardo however was all over the place. I saw everything from 13.5's to 11.9X. Can't remember the trap speeds.

Not bad for the lambo. I didn't think they ran that good. I thought the porsches would have done a bit better though. Thanks
