Seemed to be very good, I of course can get my Z28 to hook anywhere as it's making only 335rwhp LOL but even the "big guns" appeared to be hookin' nicely.
They sprayed a little (but not too much) water down after almost every car rolled through the box AND swept it almost every time as well!
A lot of care went into that starting line area in my opinion.

Rob,

They were perfect.
I never spun once.
I actually had my best 60' ever with the Vette in St.Louis.
(I left on the Trans-Brake)

You have to remember they have Low 6 second cars running down the track.
Think of the track conditions being similar to when E-town has the Shakedown or a NHRA National event.

Its as good as it gets.

Do yourself a favor and go to E-town on the Wednesday night after they have the Nationals.
If it hasn't rained, be prepared to break something!
