Truck is going next weekend to the chassis guy for the cage, so, it will be a couple months now.
wow, 45 for TNT is insane to me lol. we pay 20 at all of the tracks around here. i was really hoping to see some times out of that beast.

Welcome to Comifornia where the neighbors buy houses near the track then want to close them after full disclosure. Land prices, insurance, fighting the crybaby neighbors, it all costs here. Sucks even more that all 3 "local" tracks are all almost exactly 3 hours away and they all charge that if not more.

That's why I love running that even in Dos Palos. 1973 and earlier American made only, 1/8 mile, no track prep, no clocks, 1 hour away from home for $40.

But, there are a lot of great things about Cali too. My location is smack in the middle of some of the most beautiful mother nature you'll ever seen. Big Sir, Yosemite, Montery Bay, Santa Cruz Mountains, Ocean up in Davenport, Old growth Redwoods, the list goes on and on.. Climate is awesome where I live, rarely get's over 85* and we might see bellow 40* a couple times a year. Plus Laguna Seca is in my back yard (some day my Camaro will be done).

The price we pay..
