FFW at the Motorplex (09/16-09/18)

Anyone planning to try to make this race?

Race info here

I know one of the guys from AAS (Mick) is planning to go to run True Street. The more I think about it, the more I am thinking about trying it myself...

For those of you not familiar with the concept, there is a 30 mile cruise and then all cars make 3 passes. They average your three runs and come up with your final time.

You have to be in the 9s (or faster) to have a shot at the overall, but there are payouts for the lowest ET for each group (9 sec, 10 sec, 11 sec, 12 sec, 13 sec, 14 sec, and 15 sec).

If nothing else, the cruise is probably pretty cool. I think that they are expecting more than 100 entries...

I've gone for the past 5 years, but never run anything before. We bring 2 RVs and stay at the track, usually have 6 cars racing.

I'm thinking of running the 05 in true street this trip though.

Plan on going but I doubt we will have the race tune or the cage in by then. My first trip though so it should be fun. Maybe next year I'll be ready to run.:jeff:
