Last minute changes has opened an opportunity for me to attend this year so I will be leaving early friday morning. However, the truck is not comming with me due to lack of preperation and safety equipment.

I'll be there Saturday and Sunday, so I've been informed.

About a year ago, I wanted to enter with my 85 S10. At the time I was to put a 5.3 in it. Needless to say, plans changed...

Congratulations to Jim and Doug who won thier respective indexes in the True Street event.

Overall I was a bit dissapointed this year. Weather had a good bit to do with it though. I drove all day friday (9hrs) to arrive to several rain delays and eventually and early rain out. Saturday started off behind schedule, then add all the delays for track cleanup, the schedule got seriously behind and was a bit boreing. When it finaly came time for the LSX cars (drag radial/all motor) half of them didn't make a pass due to the track being "too cold". Come Sunday, the weather was beautiful but the first half of the day was taken up with the NMCA brackets and track cleanups. Since I had to leave at 2:00 to get home at a decent time, I didn't get to see any of the big LSX cars run on sunday.

Cliffnotes: From Friday 5:00 to Sunday 2:00 I only got to watch one round of the big LSX cars where only half of them ran.

What were the setups of the trucks? Both were right around the 14 sec time.

I believe the vmax went 16.2 the first time and 14.2 the next? What was the big change?
