This is a medium to high speed lapping day at Shawano International Raceway on Nov 13th. The price is right and the weather is forecasted to be perfect for racing.

Sorry but I need to go down to GLD and set a new record of my own and maybe a cammed with stock heads b-body record while I am at it. I might go saturday for that but no way I can swing dragracing one day and autoX the next with all the other things going on. An in-law is hospitalized and supposed to move so I will have to put in some time helping with that. Would love to come up but just can't prioritize like that.

If I had done braking and suspension work then I too would be looking to try it out. People have already begun to put their cars away for the winter I think that is why the lack of response.

I didn't go dragracing I more or less asumed with the wind they would not run, a light nose at launch with that crosswind would have been dangerous.

The track is a 125cc shifter kart track about 30 Feet wide. The track was awesome but the weather sucked. There was rain/sleet. You could run up to about 70mph on the back straight that has a really cool elevation change. If the track were dry you could get about 80-85 out of it. The track is very balanced so slow small slow cars get throught the tight corners and gain some time back were the high HP cars can take advantage of the short straights. It is a great time I will post up next spring and hope to get more people out there. I have vids too but cant host them.
