    I know I have thread about this in the other clubs and events section but want to put a notice up here in case any of you guys in the surrounding area are interested ad havent heard about it.

    Oct. 2nd at Speedworld dragstrip we are gathering up everybody we can to meet up at the drag strip. Not everyone will be racing but we can have our car show portion in the pit area and those that want to rundown the strip will be able to use the club lanes to easily line up aganist anybody you want to.

    Gates open at 8am and race until about 3pm. $10 to spectate or $20 if you want to make some runs. Weather should be nice and in the low 90s.

    I hate to send you off to another web site, but check this link out.

    Jeff C seems to know his stuff on the Caltrac settings. Feel free to ask him the question or check out that whole thread. The information will be in there, but digging it out could take you a while.

    I will be there, Duh (y) But without my Maverick :cry: Some Vulture is taking many pieces off it. :rofl2: I'll try to bring out my 70 F-100 since Tony seems insistent on it.

    I'd bring my 73 Dodge Adventurer to race you but I'm not sure how I would get both of them out there without picking up the trailer.

    I said I was bringing it, not 'bringing it!' Still way more tuning to do. I'm getting there though.

    Car will be there. I'm hesitant to commit to any passes yet. As I said, too much tuning to do still.
