ANYONE is more than welcome to join in, but there are some pretty heavy hitters in this. My car is well past the 12's and there is no way in hell I stand a chance. That 408 with a T88 (should be mid 9's or better????) might be able to run in the middle of it, and just pray the heavy hitters break

I'll be there watching, should be some good racing!

I'd say mid 9's is the cutoff to be competitive, but you never know, some of the so called "street cars" might have a tough time driving both ways! Remember, not only do you HAVE to drive TO the track, you have to drive back also

I'd concider this one. Brad if you decide to go, I would also be interested.
Plus I've never been to Atco.
