Sounds like a good place to go, I have a cousin that lives in Eau Claire, and I plan to go visit him some weekend this summer, I will have to check this place out when I am there. Is there a web site for this track that you guys know of.

Yes there is a website:

www.rockfallsraceway.com

Great little track, the test and tune days are alittle spendy but you can usually make as many passes as you want or need. I'm sure I have made 20 passes in a day a couple of times when I was out there.

I need to go out and dial my car in with HP tuners this spring.

What does a test and tune day mean?

I'm also king of curious as to what goes on at a test and tune day...the only track I have been to was IRP during the Hot Rod Power Tour, and I didn't run the car, so I am pretty unkowledgable as to what goes on.

It a very informal day at the track, basically open time trials most of the day. They generally have a gamblers race midday, (this is just a optional bracket race program) It is a good day to get your car dialed in for bracket racing or just go have fun and practice.

i will probably be there either the 8th or the 15th depends on what the weather wants to do, some my buddies will be there as well, one of which has a fairly modded SRT-4 with a sticker on his window that reads "Average Joe" if you dont run 12's watch out for that little neon

I have a few friends that go to school at UW-Stout. One of them has a 97 white Z28, he just ordered a supercharger for it today. I plan on attending school there next year if I can get my **** together and get accepted. I am currently going to school at the Tech in Wausau but need to get out.

I am not sure if he has it there or not. It is a white one with orange Camaro inserts in the rear. The guys name is Paul, he went to school at Everest. I also saw another post of yours where you were talking about your buddy with the green Camaro. Would that happen to be Nick Johnson. If it was I went to school with him as well. I know he goes to UW-Stout now too.

I know a kid with a 93 or 94 green Z28 that goes to stout, he's from the wausau area. He usually takes it to the track fairly often I believe.

ya the guy I was talking about with the green Z is Nick Johnson...I finally met him this weekend while I was at the track, seems like a cool guy... It would be sweet to get a whole group of f-bodies from this area together to go cruising or out to the track...I didnt realize there was that many around here.

Do some gears, remove some interior, and go run him down. Ok, probaly still won't be enough, but dump a cam in it and break 11's.
