At minimum I am in for the show and shine and cruise. I would like to make some track passes but my car is by far a contender, it is your basic D1SC 9psi car. The only tracks we have around here are garbage and it would be nice to get some passes. Which class would best best to get several passes and not a one and done race situation.

If nothing else see you guys there from the stands while my car takes in the sun at the show and shine.

Add me to the Index/Rumble.

I will be staying at the track.

Truck and trailer = 63' 2" 1/16.

I don't think anyone that is in the points will miss this race.

Time flew by, I have not been on here for months. This racing stuff really takes up a lot of your time.

Sorry to hear that Brian, though when Andy went out last year his car had some issues and he was able to fix all of them over a day or two... Didn't hurt having LMR and OH Boys occasionally coming by to help.

Man I'm sure you can get plenty of support and help at the race Brian. Although I understand wanting to debut it at it's best, it would be cool just to see you out there.

Either way good luck bud!

PSJ, emailed you back

Biggest issue is that I really haven't made any real clean 1/8 mile passes, let alone 1/4 mile passes yet. Too far to travel for something that I'm not remotely certain about

How strict is beech bend on their track rules? The only thing I am missing is window nets to go above 135 and and a 8.50 legal cage but I really dont see me running 137-139 with my 6 point being enough to throw me out is it? I will be wearing pants, do I need anything else? Jacket? Gloves? I've got my helmet, but it's open faced. How fast do you have to be to need a closed face?
