Default HRP tonight?

I want to take my car to the track after my cam install, I was thinking about going tonight. Hows the friday night safe street race thing?
Is there a lot of rice there, is it really crowded? I just want to get a few runs in and see what the car can do.
Hows the track surface, is it prepped good?

Anybody else thinking about going?

PS, why do they not show the times?

well damn I wasnt sure about going because I thought it would be a bunch of people and probably have not so good track surface. Ive never been on a friday before, thats why I was trying to see what it was like. Id still rather go on wed. I guess because they show the times and I can get a video with my time on it.

Who was in the red ram air firebird? I had ya for the first 1/8 mile. Of course then it got ugly on the top end with the rice cake (brick) trying to push through. But it was a fun run.
