I'm sure there will be some other F-bodies. I just got home from attending the Ignitor there. I will be back on May 27th for a street bike race.

If you were there Saturday and watched any of the bikes run, you probably saw me. There were only 2 street bikes (no wheelie bars) there, one a hardley and me on a blue and white GSXR.

Yes you can. You will need to buy a track number and the normal fee and run. I'll be there that day to on the bike for a street bike shootout.

I'm going to try to get the schedule information for the Firebird track and link. Do you all show up for the HS/IMPORT/OUTLAWSTREET Events or are they called something else for streets?

I'm going to answer this before the smart-aleck comments roll in...

The 93' isn't even on jack-stands yet but will be soon. The T/A's converter is whacked, wouldn't trust it 10 miles from the home base. I'm HOPING by July we will have all this worked out and would almost rather run over there than waiting 4 hours for one run here
As much as I will put points in for NW F-bod, travel is what the cars will need and not on a trailer. I'll ask Steph if there would be any conflict of interest though I'd only be a true part-timer to you all.

Get your group started. Few will know it exists until its got a name and a few people in it - best way to attract members. For now, you need to get Strobelite in and keep him running, he attracts attention wherever he goes...
