I will be driving down from Canada as well(Toronto) I am going in the N/A class and maybe the faster bracket as well since its a 16 hour drive each way I might as well double class
lets see if I can get 200 lbs or so of my heavy 3450 race weight that I am this year and a few other tricks I hope I can get a 10.20 out of it.I hope that is enough to keep up with the others

LOL First the damn thing needs to launch

I did Start it for the first time since I blew the head gasket. After doing some research I decided to heat cycle it a few times and do a re-torque with the Cometics. Then I will toss a sealer in just to be sure we don't get any gaskets seeping

Then finish it up and get it ready for this race!

The 'extra' prep should be fine for you then. The track prep at KCIR this year has been really good... lots of breakage!

April 19th is a for sure date. It is confirmed and our event has been written in. I do have to submit a down payment to hold it though. $1500. Have to send that payment in a few weeks so the pre-registration page will be up shortly to cover that.

I would second this. There should be at least one bracket class for slower people.

Sounds good to us. We will be ready. Got the bugs worked out and went a 10.44 @ 131 today, all motor. Should run pretty good with the 275 shot

I bet it will run good with a 275 hit! You will be running in the Outlaw class with us right?.

Somehow I don't think I will have a choice Unless you are going to allow things like non-23 * heads and my trany into the stick shift class. I'd like to run both to be honest. Outlaw will be fine, I'm just scared of you guys

I think you will be way too powerful for the 6-speed class. That class will require 23 * heads. Don't worry....my butt will get handed to me in Outlaw as well. It will still be fun though.
