Thunder Racing wants to sponsor......just waiting on confirmation. Also I hear Madman is showing interest in sponsoring.

Looks like the race is a GO now! Still need more help to have pay-outs........just have to wait and see.

Good job everyone!

Tony

I just got my camaro done and I'm looking at registering for two classes, coming from Denver so it shouldn't be a bad trek.. I'm excited to see big LT power. Tired of seeing all the big LS power, I have both so there both great platforms. Hope to see all of you...

Hopefully things go well for me so i can save up a couple hundred and make the event. I'd love to get to meet most of you guys in person and have a good time running the LT1's. Very good news that more and more companies are stepping up to make this event happen!

Yea I hear ya, If I get all of my parts in I will still be trying like a madman to get it together, This will be a new setup for me going from a supercharger to a turbo so I have a lot of track testing/tuning to do...Best of luck to you.

My Cola crank is back from California and my new AFR heads have arrived. I just looked them over about an hour ago at my builder. The sight of them motivated me to get the car back together and get ready for the shootout.

I would like to do nothing more than attend and race in this event but unfortunately its during my finals week and I have a blown trans so I gotta pass on it this year. I hope to to be there next year, so long I have the ***** to drive from PA and race the car with the stock 10-bolt and pray to get back without being stranded since we know how bullet proof they are.
