Default Gainesville racers....... (and surrounding areas)

This Saturday at Gainesville is another test and tune with Open Comp series race #3. Check out www.gainesvilleraceway for the full details. Hope the weather accomodates us, and hope to see some of you there!

I'll be there if a miracle occurs and I get a couple hundred more miles on this clutch in two days. How often do they do it on days different than wednesdays?

Dang man, what engine is that in your link to your pictures. That is the most messed up engine I have ever seen.

Gainesville Raceway runs a similar set-up as Wednesday nights, and test and tune Saturdays are run every 1st 3rd and 5th Saturday of the month. Check out the website for a full schedule. Basic info is:

Gates open at 6:30 pm and time runs go off until 11 pm.
Entry fee to race is $15, to watch is $5

The engine damage is from my old 355. The stock crank decided to split in 2 places after 7 years of street and track abuse. My avatar picture is a piston and connecting rod from that engine (stock truck rod and a TRW forged piston).
