I'm interested in going as a spectator. I wouldn't bother racing unless if you're at least in the low 11's/high 10's... it seems like that's the "slowest" they've ever gone with..

I'd run my ls swap fox. But same thing as your buddy. It's lame . Pinks was supposed to be all about the street cars.

Yeah I'm about 5 miles from the track. I usually do hear stuff going. I'd like to make it but there's no telling if my car is caged and all by then or not. And with what's going in the car I know I'd make a pass and get kicked out. I run 41 usually because they are lax.

I am waiting the registration, If i get in I will have to order a cage right away. I went to the Arm Drop event in Iowa and never had more fun. Didnt want to use the juice for fear of getting booted. Now with the new upper end the car should touch the 10s n/a even at 3750lbs.
