Default Cal Dragway opening who's in

Who plans on going to the track on the 22nd when it opens? I am sort of on the fence. Long waits between runs and of course all the stock internalled v-techs running too much bust or shots blowing up and causing delays as the track is cleaned. I am thinking of going the next day for test and tune. Higher cost to run but less people. Just my opinion. Who is going anyway? Sorry for getting off topic.

That's the real fear. Hopefully those people/riders will keep it at home rather come out and get *** hurt by reality.

the more expensive test and tune would be the better bet, hopefully it will keep all the hitbox honduh's away.

That sounds sweet. Is it just for today or are they going to continue it like that? Are they running in heats that match up ETs and such? Or is it just getting a group and having them run?

They have always run in groups at Fontana. When crowded I normally buy 2 tech cards for different groups to get more runs quicker. I got there after seven and was at the end of group two.

12.4 is not bad.. What's your set up?

...I'm hoping to get some times in April. Haven't ran yet since the new cam and heads went in.
