Does pittsburg raceway park have a website? I looked and couldn't find it.

What regular classes will the be running?(never been to PRP before) I'm assuming some kind of brakets for street tire, DOT tire, and slick tire. PRO tree or sportsman?

Thanks
Jim

Never heard of it Mikey. Where is it exactly?

That was a test and and tune run.

As for the rain, it sprinkled briefly somewhere around 6 or 7. And then it held off until about 10:30pm. I was kinda surpirsed that it did not rain on us more. At least it was not a waste of my 30 bucks. Only one jet car worked without incident...but it was cool.

Tom,

South of Altona. Near Huntingdon. I take the Breezewood exit off the PA TP and take 30 west to 26 north. Very large lake. Fishing was awesome. A night didn't pass where we didn't catch at least one large striper. All the small mouth bass you could ask for. Also caught four nice lake trout. Spent two weeks total there. Was nice to get away for a while.

Hey Broken041, what kind of car do you have?? What class did you run in? I was up there until 10:00 or so but left when it started to drizzle.

The entire Western part of the state was raining hard except for the dragstrip. Even if I did come I would have had to drive through severe thunderstorms dang near the entire drive. My car hates it when it gets wet.

Mikey, Altoona is 2 1/2 hours from me. Glad you had fun fishing. Sounds great.

Mark, did you run?

I pulled my chunk for the gear change. I'm dropping it off tomorrow. Hope to be back in action SOON.

I have a Pewter T/A A4 2.73's.

I was in the Street tire class, always out of lane 3. And even had an OH lic plate. There was only one other F-body guy that talked to me, I believe his name was Rick...had a black T/A.

Here's a link that if you want to see my run.
