Spoke to OG and they said that it comes with some kind of strap or mount...it is supposed to attach directly to the C4 harness/fire ext mount piece I ordered from R-D Racing. I will soon find out if that's true, since I am headed there right now, it's on my way to my contract today...

It seems like the only events in Maryland are drag races and now there are three of those, and that's just the big ones. Except for the O.C. cruise that conflicts with something else.

...clearly they should plan better - scheduling multiple events isn't going to work well over time

I'll see ya somewhere then

It's on that Other forum in the Mid-Atlantic regional forum. The one where Chris is a Callaway mod?

The Manassas show start is officially late in the afternoon, although people show up at noon to get prime spots in the shade. Looks like the event was slipped one month for some reason.

Yes it does conflict with the Show and Go at Englishtown on that day. The Corvette Challenge will also be running at Englishtown on that same day. There should be a lot of Vettes there at Englishtown.

Take 66w and get off at the 234 business exit. Go 3 or 4 lights and the best buy is on your left. You can't miss it. Just look for the Best Buy.
