Wondering how many of you that drag race regularly or even irregularly also belong to a club and what club you belong to.

I race regularly and I also belong to Corvette Club of Delaware Valley, CCDV for short.

I wouldn't join any club that would have me as a member ;)

(I had to say that before Mackey did)

Seriously though, I know quite a few of our racers are in clubs.

I'm in one. Not to many dragracers in it though. They like to autox more. But we have been getting more people to try going straigt instead of all taking all those turns :D

I race fairly regularly. Besides the odd test & tune every now and then, I haven't missed a local Street Legal race, Summit ET Series race, or a division finals, in over 5 years. That is a minimum of once a week, in season, sometimes as many as three. 434 quarter mile passes in the last three years, when I first started keeping a log book. Corvette Forum and NHRA are MY clubs.

RACE ON!!!

OK, for those of you who's posts I edited, you need to stack your sig pics rather than have them side by side. This will reduce the side scrolling.
Thanks.

Frank I don't think it was me because there is a space between my sig pics and the forum software automatically rolls it to the next line whenever it does not fit in the screen unless you are using like 640 x 480 resolution you will not have a problem.

I belong to the Corvette Club of Winston Salem. It is a good group with many great old and new cars. The best part is the charity work. :cheers:

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!

Having to side scroll is very annoying and distracting. It makes following the
authors point more difficult. And the scrolling is made necessary on the
whole thread, not just the offender(s) post. Thank you.

RACE ON!!!
