these events suck to race at. Have you ever been to one? It's horribly overpriced, overrun by hondas, and you only get like 3 runs...

yea i been to one before it was a bit boring to watch but when people start dialing in it gets a lil more interesting, to me atleast. as for the hondas they were pretty decent last time i went, many low 14's and 13's running. not many subies though. just tryin to get more subies out there.

boost spiking and then bouncing between 12-18 psi!

I was going to, but it looks like rain this weekend.

I agree with CMi being overpriced. But the trick is to get your ride dialed in before hand so you can at least have consistent passes to survive the eliminations and have enough runs to justify $50.

They actually prep the drag strip for these events. Fresh sticky VHT IMHO is a no-no for AWD launches.

yea should have took the advice and saved the 30 bucks and gas for something else. i was the only suby out there. hit my best time though so i was happy about that. 13.7 with a trap of 98mph. probably could have hit 13.5 or so with a better 60 foot.
