Default Fontana 1/4

So just heard from a reliable source that Cal speedway has been approved and will build a sound wall for the Fontana speedway by spring/summer of 2014. Good news, we have all been aching for. Just thought I'd give everybody a heads up, Good times coming back.

Thank God. And I'll have my 8.8 swap going end of next year hopefully. That will be perfect to try out some 4.11s in the V with some slicks maybe too... yummie
