Seems like when anything goes on at eddyville it gets cancelled. I was looking forward to the Sunday Fun Day.

Anyone else going to the Fairgrounds on Tuesday? If so look me up, I will be there in the Orange GTO. That is, if the rain holds off.

Awesome! We'll be in the Black Car you see in my sig. Will you be in your Mustang or the SS that I see on your profile page?

... I guess it doesn't matter. I'm gonna keep my eyes peeled for any ride with Iowa Plates.

Anyone headed to CFR this Saturday night for the Midnight Mayhem? (Orangemagic?)

Last Friday nights Cordova trip was a disaster, drove in rain the whole way, it stopped 2 miles before the track but it had a hard mist all night so they had to cancel it about 11pm, we are going try to go to CFR's race Saturday night.

I will be running during the day on Saturday at CFR. They are having open test tune starting at 2pm and then they are going to do midnight mania. I like running during the day cause the track actually hooks!

I will be up there to watch saturday day and at night. I won't be running cause I dont have a rear battery kill switch or muffler.
I'm trying to sell the car right now so if it don't sell within a couple weeks I have some big plans for it.

I would think Quick Performance in Ames would have what you need.

i agree on the "hook" during the day at CFR but they don't have the "Quick 8" shootout then..... I wish they did so i could give the whole N20 off the line!

Orange, your car is silent aka turbo and for gosh sakes how fast you think that thing's gonna go for a kill switch? Isn't that a spec you'd need to able to run 9.99 or faster? They've bitch to me about no rollbar but nothing else though.....yet.

If your battery is in the trunk you have to have a cutoff switch and box no matter how fast you run.
