Looks like at least 4 members from our Third Gen car club will be there for the drag racing. Some on the cruise. I believe the times should run from the low 12's to the higher 12's this year. Not bad for for street legal NA TPI. Next year we should have a number of 11 second cars as a number of new motors are still being built.
