I had fun last year. A little disappointed though. I rushed to install my line lock and put some crappy tires on the back in order to do a crazy long burn out. The fine Schaumburg Police shut me down within seconds Here is a short video of my really short potentially good weak *** baby burnout.

my car will be there as usual. not inside the shop this year but on the driveway in front. better place to be when you are supercharged with a transbrake and a 2 step on the car and might feel like launching the thing wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

Sean is already at the track, waiting for the gates to open. He wanted to be first in line.

I'm going after work tomorrow. Thursday night is slick night.
