Any So. Cal. members close to Irwindale going out to the drags this thursday?

Unfortunately I will not be racing, but I will still be out there.

Isnt that track always packed?

It was pretty crowed in the summer but than leveled out where you could run as much as you want during the winter months. It might be packed this Thursday, since it is the last drag day of this year.

There was a mustang running 126mph two weeks ago with some wicked wheel stands. I'm hoping to see some fast cars out there this Thursday since it is the last day of the season.

Man I wouldnt mind going for a few passes, but if its crowded I'd be pissed to get 2-3 runs.

And I have to work thursday.

They start up in Feb. next year. Come out on a Sunday, for some reason they do not draw the cars like Thursday nights. You can run your car untill it breaks or runs out of gas whichever happens first.

There was a modular turbo cougar there a few months ago running 4.70s @ 155. It sounded like a jet plane waiting to take off.

Is this 1/8th mile only?

Skyler

Yah, it's 1/8 of a mile only. I was dissapointed at first but I'd rather race on an 1/8 than nothing at all.

You do not put as much wear and tear on your engine compared to a 1/4 mile.
