I heard DA was great on Thanksgiving weekend. Those are great numbers from your boss. The fastest car in PSCA top class made a pass this weekend at speedworld. It's a prostock looking GTO. It ran 6.50 in the 1/4 mile and the front driver's tire didn't touch the ground until he passed the 660' mark!!! Truly incredible run to watch. You'll get them times down once your tuned just right. Your DA is higher too, so deduct a tenth or two for good weather.

How new does the helmet have to be? I have a motorcycle helmet that is a few or more years old. Am I good to go?
How bout if I use someone else's helmet for tech and then use mine for driving?

1) On your helmet what does the sticker say as for rating?
2) You sure can no one checks it afterwards. Great idea. They do look them over at tech, so he might recognize it or might not.

Believe the (1) represents that you are going alone. (2) would mean you have a friend.

I am going alone also so I have a (1) by my name since I don't have any friends either!!!

"Cept my Pals on the Forum!!
Ok, maybe not!

Would not have been enough lead time. My friend took WAY longer than he said he would just making the Crossfire Stickers.
Good idea though!

If everyone coming don't mind, please pm me your name so I can put it on my list for the gate. The gate hopefully will give you directions to where we are parked.

Now we need a time. I'm thinking 0700. Agree? Disagree?
just wanted to verify that we are meeting at Jack in the Box at 7 AM.....is that right?

Who all will be meeting up?

Just another reminder for those under 14 seconds please bring a helmet, I believe Tazz was bringing 2? Haven't heard from in this week. Tazz you still coming? Also no sandals, no shorts, must have pants. See you all on Saturday morning, try to be there by 9am to get in line. Still need a couple of you to PM your names. I sent PM's to those still needed. Getting excited, it's going to be a blast. Free food and trophies so bring the family.

Cruzin, I am really disappointed that I cant come down. They are forcasting snow flurries for the weekend here.....

Have lots of fun and put up some good numbers(11's) or I'll come down and steal your tires.

hopefully getting new tires tomorrow ups style. Mine still have a few passes. I hope I have enough time to get them on. UPS usually delivers late for me. We'll start planning for next year, hopefully we can take over the track next year.
