Default E Town This Sunday ?

The title says it all....

Is anyone planning on going to E Town this Sunday.. They are having Imports vs Modern Muscle...

I am not entering the race, I'm just going for time trials... As Atco canceled the track rental on March 7th ...

I just want to get an idea of how it will run with the new motor...if I'll hit the rev limiter etc.. and also "TRACTION" ?? being its only the 2nd race day, and a lot of Imports the starting line might be garbage

I'm hoping to hook up, & just make 2 or 3 time shots to see how close I will get to the 10's I should be close... "I think" I'm just looking for someone that I know to BS with and pass the time between the Import "Oil Downs"

White with NO HOOD! You can't miss it. Hood is being fixed and painted right now.

I may or may no be there for a bit. Need some race gas for a friend so we can get his car done and running for next weekend.
