I think there will be alot of cars because the weather will be so nice. Probably alot of cars that were going for one of the other events or t+t will decide to compete in the series as well. Gonna be a busy track day with 3 or 4 events and a t+t session so it should be a nice crowd and hopefully some hot TAIL walkin' around too!

You can run brackets if you dont make the 11.50 index.

I see at least 16 cars for the 11.50 class.

With the 85 degree heat, how many of those 16 will be competitive?

The ones with properly set up suspensions and know how to adjust for track conditions and those cars that do not fall off when the heat turns up. That would be my guess.

Generally since the temps are the same for everyone, it should be competitive.

Wear your sun block!

About time you're on here!

"get in the car and Drive" = put on the trailer and drive to the Beeline.

You're like the Don King of GONE! If I wanted to compete at that level I'd spend the money. I'm happy with 11 second runs.

You'll be too busy chasing "tail" to worry about me.

I hear ya.

I went from a mid 13 second car to a mid 12 to a mid 11 in 7 trips to the track last year. Pretty much doubled (not quite) the whp on the car in 6 months and went from one of the top 20 fastest GTOs in the LS1GTO.com NE list last season to obsolete this season.

Is it me or has everyone went nucking futs on the new setups?
