I'm in.. but are we going to be force to park and walk 40 miles to the runway again or is this going to be a more logical setup?

I am going to the Florida Mile run in February. All I have is a stock car now and it ran 172mph the last time out. Now that it is broken in maybe I could get a few more mph out of it. I need to add some boost to my new ride but I just have not had the time.

I was just wondering what stock car would run! Damn that's pretty quick.

I badly wanna do this, I converted my car from a4 -> m6 but I still have the 3.23 gears out back. With boltons and cam hopefully I can do some work.

The list is looking a little slimmer this time around Hopefully we still get another good turn out. Only one more week to go

A lot of shops and people in general on vacation, so participants on the low side, just means for runs for them.

Should have about 10 more jump on before the event.

Dave, I'm the other TA #6. I'll see you there. I'd like to see how it does now that I pulled my 4.11 rear and put in my 3.23. I'm interested to see. I'm really excited about the cool weather!!!

Jeepers, you going this time?

Yeah the list looks slim but it maybe less crazy.....

I'd really like to come down and check this out but I'm just short of having my car ready. When's the next event?

It is 44 degrees with a high of 59 in Naples today. I am sure we are going to see some great numbers with this cool weather. Good Luck and be Safe.

Post up those you tube links!

Much better today, it was organized, food, and port-potties.

I got my mphs. Too bad I had cross winds shifting to head winds. I felt my car lifting above 145 and couldn't keep my foot in it.

Thanks Max!
