Just too tied up with school and the rest of life to get the car dialed in. Also never had a chance to remove my controller and rewire the nitrous system.

Derek,

I was talking to Remo today and he said I do not have to have an NHRA license but I will have to have an NHRA membership. I read through the rules and could not find that in there. Could you verify this for me one way of another?

Thanks,
Steven

thanks Derek.

That was my understanding. But Remo had me second guessing. I reread the rules and saw what he was talking about. If I do I do but if I can out the money in the car that's even better.

Thanks again,

Steven

Only three days until racing! For anyone heading up, they will doing racer parking a little differently than a Wednesday test and tune or Saturday rave. As you come through the gates, you ate parked in the order you arrive, and you can't gold spots for friends (this is the style they use for NHRA national and divisional events where the car count is high and space is limited).
Myself and a bunch of friends are meeting up at the Marathon gas station on 441 just north of Rollins Automotive at 7 am. If you want to park with us, come and meet up!

Dang I can not meet up that early. I am hoping to pit next to or close to people I know.

Only 2 days to go. I'm ready. Hope the car is. I just got some 373's put in last night.

Yep I have the tickets in hand. I wish I could go and run the hoe in the 12 class. That would be fun as hell. But I fixed the boost controller so it may be faster .

I ran a 12.08 in the first round of qualifying.
Hoping to stay consistant and drop alittle.

I'm bringing my hpt laptop. I don't have credits to tune it I can catalog and clear fuel trims and what not if anybody needs. Just throwing it out there. I cleared trims on a poorly modded tbss and he dropped a little over half a second. His trims were out to lunch though.
