If you're used to Atco and how it's run you might not like E-town as much.
Track prep at Atco is typically better but E-town hasn't been too bad lately either and clean ups go much faster at E-town but the cost is higher and the amount of runs you get in could still be less as well.

Damn Marc cant sleep either huh, ha ha. Thanx well lately the prep at atco has been so so , i just figured i'd try up there once or twice this year for a change. I do like the track and enjoyed it last year when i went up on a sat. Seems like i'm searching for traction now since the converter went in the nittos are hit or miss. Only time i hooked was during the quick 8 s a few weeks ago. I should have gotten the mt ets.

ill be there for sure, also by 5pm

if you get there early, you can be through tech and taking runs while the zoo is arriving/sitting in tech.....last time i was there (3-4 weeks) i got there and sat outside the gates, was the 3rd car through tech, and got 4 runs in while there was still 100+ cars sitting in the tech line.........thats my plan again tonight

I heard that englishtown is letting enclosed trailers go through tech now also. If Im not mistaken they did not allow that before, I might have to pull right through if that's the case instead of unstrapping the stupid car first

They legally can if they want to and/or if it's busy but usually you can get a few more in if (like Atco) you're there early.
