Saturday is the 21st, not the 22nd.

I have to work in the morning on the 22nd, I should be good by 3PM.


As for events this year the Mid-West F-body association as the Road America rental on April 28th and 29th in Elkhart Lake WI.

We also have Cordova dragway rented out for May 20th of this year. Its $40 to run, but its a private rental so there are no long lines to wait in. You can run back to back as many times as your car can handle it.

The Cordova "Hot Lap King" is currently over 40 runs back to back.

I would love to see more thirdgens at both these events. Heck, I'd love to see MY thirdgen at these events, working on that as we speak.

I posted that back in October! Haha. But it sounds like Third gens are really catching on at Strats. I'd be interested in seeing who shows up to that this weekend. And that Cordova dragway day sounds awesome. I'd love to really see what my car runs now that I've got the TPI pretty much set up how I want.
