Talking 2008 World Street Challenge

Who is going to STL for the 1st World Street Challenge in May? I went to every World Ford Challenge, except the first one in BG, KY, there were multiple ones in STL & they were always fun. I am excited to see a mixed event!!!

Who is going & what are you taking?

I'll have my '99 SS there & hopefully be running it & helping with a few friend's cars.

If they would release some rules for Outlaw Drag Radial I could see how many cars to bring. We won the WFC last year.

Interesting. I am about 3.5 hours away from St. Louis. I would be willing to bring my car for sure if it fits in a class.

My guess is they will be close to what the World Ford Challenge rules. I think the main thing is they wanted to open it up to more cars. I at least thing the Outlaw Drag Radial will be the same. If it is we should make it up there this year again.

Not sure, but I haven't heard that only LSX GMs will be included. There were plenty of classes for the Ford race, all engines were represented well.

Damn, guess I'm out!

This looks good to add in the other brands, but until the rules hit it's a toss-up on attendance...

I booked rooms last week in Collinsville. I called a bunch of hotels & they are already seeing quite a few reservations. A few places I called only had "king" rooms left.

For those who know the WFC what is the format? Sounds like multiple events not just drag racing right?
