Thumbs up

Well I was going to post this up after my much needed first Vacation in 2 years (that I just returned from).

Glad to see that everyone is excited. I have tried to make some modifications this year to improve the event.

So Yes it will be all day TNT (no brackets this year) so you should get a few more passes.

I am still working on a Skidpad and/or burnout competition.

The auto cross is NEW

I wold like to split up some of the events to different days i.e. Racing/car show, but I need to work on rearranging the shcedule to accomodate that and not sure it will be this year. I am thinking we will move the car show to the dyno day so we can get more participation.

We are going to do 2 Dyno days and pit Shop vs. Shop for the crown so be sure to sign up with your respective loyalties to support them. Limit 20 per shop.

This year it will be
1. STD Street Tuning and Dyno

vs.

2. CMS Cunningham Motorsports

There will be trophies for King of the Dyno for each shop as well as One for the shop that 1. Higherst HP and 2. total combined HP

So be sure to show your support in this event and sign up.

ROTW Cruise will be unchanged still a catered BBQ at the top (Chicken and Tri Tip etc...) Hope to have over 100 cars this year and some warmer weather. Bring your Football, Friszbee, etc... for soe entertainment at the park and camera for some awesome views.

Last year we has 155 Drag race cars. Same limit this year to 150.

Live band, Bikini Girls, Raffle, Car show (larger thou) Beer garden should all be in place again this year.

Last year 3 NHRA licences got issued at our event!!! including our own Mike Haddad

Plus the Auto Cross will be limited to 50 cars and held in the Northern parking lot of California Speedway. A course of orange cones will be set up and there will be some corners et up to test your driving ability. Sessions will be 20 -40 minutes (I will leave that to who I designed to run that event)

Flyers will be available to everyone to pass out and help build the event, please PM if you would like some and we can meet up at some point.

If you can help wil sponsors that would be appreciated. We do not have a car stereo shop yet! and yet we all love tunes and this would be a great opportunity for a shop so If you know one that may be interested let me know.

Perhaps we could set up a Sound off competition as well.

Be sure to sign up early for the racing last year it sold out and some folks were dissappointed.

The website will be updated every few days so please don't panic if you do not see you name up there right away. Also make sure to tell me your screen name so i can match it to who you are (this prevents duplicates and mistakes)

Lets go have some Fun!

Ok here is what you do, Sell your aps turbo kit, Build a forged iron 370 ci, buy a 88mm turbo, build a truck manifold kit, put a th400 with a t-brake and a reverse manula valve body, and go racing

Buy a sawzall get to cutting , I havn't put my car on the scale but i think it should be pretty light since i got rid of hvac, stero, fog lights, rear seats, center console, heat sheilds, brackets for all stuff removed, windsheild wipers with motor, front bumper support, removed and rewired unneeded wiring and cut away with the sawzall in the front. I also did pocket weight reduction like replaced radiator with aluminum griffin and single fan ect ect.

If you're going to make a picture, at least spell "you're" correctly.

I cant wait for this event, either. We thirdgenners need a few more LS1 kills for our collection.

And I hope the weather is as good this year as it was last year, meaning nice and cool!
