In case anyone wanted to go and watch.

We are going Nick is looking forward to this it should be a blast

Weather looks decent, high of 81.

Mid West Index is also featured in this event. I'll be running in 11.60 Street Heat.

Well if you are going Tom then that settles it I wanna go now!!!

There is a 13.50 Street Brawler Index that many of you CAMM drag race affectionatos could be racing in. I know one of our members has a 13 sec. street car now. I saw some more last week end too.

So does that mean you have to run 13.50 and try not to go faster (aka breakout)?

Here is the flyer for the Mid West Index races.

I think next year ill be close to ready for the 12.5 index. A couple mods and mostly practice needed.

You should run slower and do the 13.5 one.

I don't know how to run slower. I can change my tune maybe. I'm too new, all I know is give it gas. If I was a better driver I think the car would be in the 12s now.

Yeah Tom used to have a daily driver once upon a time look what happened to that

4 ways to run slower that I know of. Burp it at half track, leave it floored at the 1000 ft. with the brakes on, slam on the brakes just after the 1000 ft at the last set of orange cones, or take some timing out of your tune. Obviously it's much better to just run the number if you can, but most days it's really hard to.

rotflmao.

I would like to go also, but $25 to spectate???? Factor in gas, lunch, and beer, fuck thats a $100 day for me.

Pretty sure we can bring in coolers. I would be willing to bring my large cooler with ice and if anyone wants to throw stuff into it that works for me. Someone stronger then me would have to lug it up the stairs.

And it could come complete with Modelo Shawn if you end up coming.....

It's worth every penney. This event is almost like the Full Throttle series events. It's badd ass. BRING EAR PLUGS!!! lol.

Do you know if they have a cooler rule Tom? Most tracks don't but I wanna be sure.

You can bring it. Bring food if you want.

i think deb and i will be here

Cool, looks like I'll have a pit crew to help out for once. JK. I would like to have someone take vids of my hits. Ones that begin when I move from the staging lane to the placement plate and end when I cross the finish line and capture the audio of the track announcer comments. Ron always makes a Mr. Norm's coommercial whenever I stage up. (good for Tim)

yes he does..

Amy took a video of your run vs the 392. I'll see how it is and post it if its worth it.

Yeah, I remember that guy. He looked like me the first time I raced. Just blasted it out of the hole and went sideways spinning.

I put it on your facebook if you ever check that. its not the greatest since it was shot from an ipad.

Im going
