Anyone going to be there Saturday? I've never been to a proper track before, thinking Saturday might be my first time. Now I can't decide if I want to put my Honker on before or after (to get stock vs not stock times).

Weather is looking good for this Saturday for our Corvette Challenge. Come on down and make some runs. I would run the car bone stock to get some baseline ET's before installing the Honker Cold Air intake.
