I am glad this is still going. I will be home in mid Feb hope to see you all around. I will probably need all the information I can get from everyone when I put my car together.

I'd be up for it, I'd like to see everybody's lsx. The farther south the better for me.

Happenings. I'm just waiting for some things to get sent back to finish putting my car back together. Watching it collect dust. I'm ordering new tires by the end of the month.

I'm up for that. Finally started digging in on the Procharger install. Coming along slowly but surely. Hopefully I'll have it wrapped up here pretty soon...still waiting on a few odds and ends.

If any of you guys are planning on going out to the dragstrip to race pm me. We are working on a new class just for our street cars. The pan is to have this race once a month if I can get it approved. I'll post more after my meeting with the track owners.

That's me. I've got one started and when we can start driving our cars I'll try to get some get togethers posted. I'm working on getting a class at the dragstrip for real street cars right now.
Send me your email and info and car and I'll add you to the list.

Finished the Procharger build. Waiting for the computer to get here with the base tune so I can fire it up, and then wait for all this snow to melt so I can drive it.

Everything looks good. They were trying to get the new rules posted on the track website, but it's not up yet. The payouts are going to be pretty good this year. Brackets running all out. The tube chassis cars have to make the parade laps, then 3 qualifing rounds, and run the first round before they have a chance at the fastest car payout. They'll have to work for it. Then it comes down to consistance and who can cut a light to win the bracket which is a 40% payout and the runner up gets 20% of the entries.

There will be a second class for drag radials only, based off of the same rules and has the same payouts.

Thats what the dr class is for. The tube cars will never run on a dr. Also I heard rumors of that atleast one tube car might not be running this year.
