Austin. I'll be there friday to. My engine will be done this week. I actually think it was finished tonight, but no time to pick it up. I might take the old 4 wheeler down there and race. Let me know if your car gets finished and if you need my slicks.

Man thats what I wish I had. I'm on 18's with hard *** radials. I couldn't get any better than a bogged down 2.1 60 ft. a few weeks ago. To much rpm and it would spin even slipping the clutch, I had to launch at 2 grand and it would bog down like a mother.

Default ERP Saturday

The CAMARO/MUSTANG SHOOTOUT is scheduled for this Saturday, June 21st at Eddyville Raceway Park. The MICC got the best of the Mustangs last fall. I think we can do it again.

Are you guys coming down Friday night as well? It'd be cool to see some of these cars come out for the street drags the night before.

Still looking for wheels for those slicks. I'll be running on the same 255/16bfg dr's as last time....But im going to make it earlier in that night to get a couple passes on the prep.

Thanks Adam for keeping me in mind on the tires tho! let me know when your ready to put that thing together!

Im waiting on my work status for Saturday. If no worky, might show up, not sure if it will be with or without the car........Used to taking the bike to the strip, but I dont have a trailer for it this time, and I have fried clutches before so I do not drive my bike there.
Need to get the car there, never been there...Never been there with a car.
