Good times at Mission, BC last night They just redid the first 1/8 mile of track. It was opening day for them. There was no VHT (naked concrete) down so that made things interesting, but everybody I went with had a good time. Here is me on my way to LOW 13s!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
I really like this track and I plan on going back in a few weeks after they get it prepped correctly.

Mission was already supposed to be the best hooking track in the area. And now they replaced the 1/2 track? More reason to go check it out....especially if you ran a low 13 Eric. Damn, that's fast for a Mustang!

Right on man...we'll have to get together and meet up sometime..I went 6-7 times last year... TO: turbo50 ....if you have a drivers license and don't bring guns. 
...you should not have any problems...but like I have said to many American friends..get with the times and get a passport..I have had one for 30 years, but I also lived in Europe, where EVERYBODY has one. 911 screwed things up badly, but I just show mine at the border and they wave me through right away...another friend does not have one and gets hassled every once in awhile going BOTH WAYS.

I took my passport, military ID and birth certificate and still got searched. I think they were annoyed at Nate and I shaking the building they were in sitting there idling. The guy who searched my car was cool as hell and asked me how fast my car was. True to form I smiled and said, "It's pretty fuggin fast." He opened the hood and looked at me wide eyed and replied, "No ****, eh!?"

I do need to get a passport. I have never been to Mission and its alot closer to me than any other track. One reason I never went was I was so far from legal safety-wise. Im in good shape on that now. I know a few guys at MPS and they love the place. Would be alot of fun to go racin with them.

When I first got my WS6 I put a lid on it, went to mission for my first drag run ( in a car ) of my life, and ran a 13.14 @ 111.6 mph on my only run. I swear they've got Texas air up there

Its like 15 feet above sea level.
Most of my drag racing experience is at Mission, however my best times are at Bremerton. Probably because I got a total of 4 passes on my drag radials there.
