I had a good time, well all but the lock your keys in the car part. See what happens when you get old. I hate that the timing system took a ****. I really wanted to see Scott and Chris get a timed run in as well as Johnny in the stang. I never got a clean pass, 13.0 spinning.

I sure hope you lucky bastards brought back some videos.
But 2 runs in 7 hours almost makes me glad I couldn't make it.

I waited all night and never got a pass in. By the time me,chris and johnny got in the staging lanes the computers went down....not lights on the tree,no timing lights and no ET print outs. They were hand drop racing whoever was beside you,so i packed up and left for the house.

I gave them $20 and i promise it won't happen again. Whoever you are that post for Thunderraceway some of us would like a raincheck on last nights race. They supposedly handed out 593 "tech cards" that is almost 600 racers,not counting spectators.

It was fun hanging out and seeing some of the guys again,maybe next time some of us can get atleast one pass in before it closes up.

I wanted to get at least one pass in. About 8pm they said not to bring street cars up until they were called to the staging lanes and they said that would be in about 30 min. We sat there until 10:30 waiting and they never called us so we decided to just go get in line where we sat until they decided to close. I'd like a raincheck next week also!

It was an awsome site to see that many cars show up for a TnT night. The parking lot was full. We started talking about it while we were waiting in the staging lane for 2hr, 593 tech cards @ $20 apiece = $11,860.00 That is just people that were racing (or waiting to race).

I guess it was TnT night for all of us and the track. It will take them a few weeks to get all the bugs worked out of it. I remember when we went to Monroe the first week it opened up after being closed for 3-4 months and they had electrical issues all day long with the timing system. So I'm not mad about last night

Hey guys, thank you all for coming out for the first night. We know we have some issues to iron out. Please be patient, we were not counting on that many cars showing up. There has been a question about unused tech cards from Saturday. If you still have your tech card, it will be good for Friday night. You will still have the $10.00 general admission fee, but you do not have to buy a tech card again. Thanks for the support, it will only get better from here. Thanks

Thanks!

Look what I found.

I know how amazingly tough, bad ***, fast, and everything else those Tundras are after watching all those comericals. So why are they not pulling this trailer with one of their kick *** trucks instead of a CHEVY DURAMAX???? They need to unhook that bullshit from that real truck!!! ;D

If GM still had a leasing plan I would be driving one of them. I just like to get new vehicles too often and buying a new vehicle every year just isnt beneficial for my company. I have 3 other GM vehicles so I can get away with one yota.

Anyone have a pushrod length checker I can buy or borrow for a while? They're only $20, but out of stock. I won't need it for a while, but TSP says it'll be August before they're back in stock.
