Wasnt it in August last year?

I'm debating running in the all motor class... not sure if it would be worthwhile to do so.

what do you mean worthwhile? its all in fun for me. i run 11 seconds in the slick class so you can imagine its definetly not worth it for me but its all in fun!!!! i actually won $50 last year though for getting 8th place or something

the more cars racing, the better!!!!

I'd be running in the all motor class... i'd have one too many things to fix before I could go... I need slicks (22") and replace a lug stud... and some other **** like retune on smaller injectors.

think i'll pass lawl.

that some respectable numbers in your sig dude.

We will be coming with probably 3 cars, but the weather is not looking good, 60% chance of rain for the 3rd.

You did say you 'need' them, and that's a sign of desperation when you're talking about making a race that is coming up lol

BTW, if you need slicks PM and I'll have them out to you tomorrow.

I know, but it would be just my luck, diesel, is not cheap pulling the 48'. Worked my *** off getting my car done for this race, but will maybe just do some testing on low boost.
