I'd like too, I like NED's track better than LVD even though the track staff act like they hate their job...lol. The cars going to be tuned to run on motor the first couple times out... then we can start playing with the spray.... The cars going to be a little heavier (I went back to the stock type radiator) than when ken ran the 8.95 and I'm sure tuned down a little... But we'll try....lol

4 lanes? I don't know about that. I just spoke to a dude who works there a few days ago. He's a customer/patient of mine. I asked about improvements etc and he said none that he knows of. He's kinda a douche bag so who knows. lol

LOL...Yeah I forget stuff like that too. I have had a Pro 5.0 Shifter for 5 months now, and STILL havent gotten it installed. I was home in August and got my headers and exhaust on, but forgot about the shift. I was home just a few weeks ago(Family emergency) had a few days of down time, and it sat there waiting fo rme...But to no avail, I forgot about it again. Well I will be home again in just about a week...and I sure as hell aint forgettin this time!! LMOA....Thanks for the info....

What's the best night to go on? and how serious do you guys run up there?
