For you people in Pittsburgh PA area

I was the very first car to make a pass last year on the first day it was open. It does tend to be a zoo- that's why i always get there early and always take lane 1 or 2, that way I get through all the congestion at the back and don't end up being skipped over.

I've heard about the races in crafton for a few years, but I never went. I just recently found out exactly where they are as I just got a job out near robinson town center and I went to eat at Pirmantti's (sp) and the guy I was with said they race just down the road from there near UPS. Do they have them year round or just in the summer? I was always worried about getting nailed by the cops just for watching.

I highly recommend to anyone that can make it to attend the TCTC mustang club's track day. Last year it was on August 19th. They rented the track all day on a saturday, it cost around $45 a person/car. I made 13 passes, but I could have made at least 20 if I didn't want my car to cool. It was the best time I have ever had at the track. It is a 1000X's better than thursday's test and tune.
BTW- what is the website for ASAP by Ed's shop? The link above doesn't work.
