| Hey Guys, Mark your calendars!!!! Our drag day is up at New England Dragway in Epping, NH on Saturday, May 22nd. Hopefully being a little later in the spring this year we'll have better luck with the weather! And YESSSS!!!! The East Coast Impala Racing Series is coming back up, too!!!! So there should be the big boys running some fast times in these tanks! Track's gates open at 8am and racing starts at 9. We usually meet at the Burger King at the intersection of 125 and 101 in Epping at 7am. We'll roll out of there at 745 and make the short run together to the track. Stragglers can meet us at the gate. We usually park near the stands, against the fence. So Stake a Claim there if you get through tech first! I'll try to bring a grill and a cooler with waters and stuff. If someone has an Easy-Up, that'd rawk. IIRC, it's 25 bucks to get in. Cost to sponsor the event is $200 and trophies are usually around $100. I normally eat the cost myself, but last year I asked for help and you guys really came through and made it a lot easier on my wallet. So I will ask the same again this year. If you'd like to chip in, even a little bit, it would be greatly appreciated!

| Nice! Thanks for taking the initiative. I just hope I'll have a car by then!
I'll give you some cash at the next meeting - no paypal here. | |

I saw your post on the other forum. What are you looking to do? Mine are 16in ralleys. EVENTUALLY lowering and getting bigger/wider for the rear. Only thing stopping me is a serious lack of $$$$$$$$$ | |

| So few have said they are planning to attend so far. I am hoping to do better than last year. I want to see the lanes full of b-bodys. Having the tuners last year share track time almost made me throw up a little in my mouth, but it was fun to see the looks on their faces when the big boys fired up.
So who is planning to attend? |

Plan on towing the car down...possibly Friday night.
How long does your track day run? Need to preregister or pay at the gates? | |

| The drag day is held on a test-n-tune Saturday. There will be tons of cars there of all kinds of makes. You can drive anything from a VW to a Diesel pickup truck. However, that is all for fun, no qualifying and no trophies, only time slips. --
Bring your B-Body and enter the bracket race. It doesn't matter how slow it is. God knows it's faster than my car was, and I ran my car in the bracket races. I even stole a first place trophy from Crovo once.
The more cars the more rounds and the more fun for everyone. Your car won't get hurt, and nobody is gonna laugh at ya. | |

| Issue ain't the money. I just want to bring my car into the pits. Laura is coming with me this year and it'd be nice to have a place to get out of the sun and keep a cooler so she doesn't overheat like last time she went to NED. I just don't want to have to get in line with the people doing tech and stuff since I'm not running. Last year I parked outside and walked back and Fishah asked why I didn't just pull back like him and I hadn't realized it was an option. | |

If you are not racing, you do not have to even go to tech. Just park by the stands. I also have a fold up canopy you can sit under |

Who was it last year that pulled out at the last second because they decided to take off a rocker arm and throw it into a bush in the middle of the night? | |
