Ready. This will be my first time at ET.
How does this event go, what time is track open, where to park (enclosed trailer), how many practice runs, how is qualifying set, any thing else you can think of?
I haven't signed up for points yet, will decide after this weekend. Probably CC and 11.5 index.

Hi Jack.... I'll see you Sat morning, I's suggest being at the track by 8:45 am...

I saw your avatar, please don't tell me your car is LMB.... Ask some of the guys "Just how SENILE" I am" Back when I had my 96 C4 and Mackey had his RED 95 C4.. we were both going into the 3rd or 4th round, and didn't have much cool down time, so I bought 2 bags of ice to put on the intake manifold etc.. wanted to cool it off "REAL GOOD"

Well I did get it cooled down, but it was Mackeys car NOT MINE

Now I have a nice LMB C6 and your going to come and screw me up again only 7 yrs later .... LOL

Hope to see you Sat...

Did you ever figure out what caused the engine issue?

Got the trailer inspected Monday, getting the GS aligned tonight after work, then I just have to swap tires and clean it up a bit. Among remodling the bathroom, swapping a motor in an 86 Vette, getting the 08 to ECS for adjustments,and work.... Can't wait to get away!

I'll be there. Jpee bring some extra ice. You can cool down my intake. It can't hurt.
