Well i went....ran the car for the first time 12.65 on a 1.8 60' which suprised the hell outa me, but......i was not at all impressed with the track tonite. It took me 2 hours before i got in line to make a first pass, and then it seemed like every other car was braking something. The way they were running lanes at first was retarded.

The way they were running the lanes was retarded. If they are going to have three lanes they should run like ten cars from one lane, ten from the next and so on. That way all of the lanes stay moving. After about 8:30 the lanes started flowing pretty good. Guess thats cause everyone started leaving.
