It looks it too. I'd try you on the street, but I would expect to get dusted.

I've just started to post this across the internet, but so far there's at least 10-15 that have expressed interest in racing. Probably 30 have expressed an interest in attending. Now that we have a date, I'm also handing out flyers to Vette owners I run into.

Maybe at the track, if I can get my tranny tweaked and my tuning adjusterd. In decent weather I'm in the high 12's

If you can get it tweaked, I'd like to run you then, since we are so close on our times. That would be .

It sounds good to me. I've already made my reservations for OctoberVettes. The pizza is getting old anyway. A night at the track making a few passes sounds go. The bad part is cleaning the vette the next morning. I just need to know how to get to the track.

Glad you can join us! Take I-95 North to Highway 50 and go Left/West. The track will be on your left about 30+ mins. ahead (give or take time for traffic). Just before you get to the track you will go under an overpass. Look for a large billboard sign and a drag school bus.

I think I talked my son into bringing his 77 vette. He never ran the track before so please give him some slack. It is a daily driver with limited mods. I will bring my C5 & run a couple of passes. Just praying for nice dry, cool weather

I'll definitely give slack to your son. My car is rough around the edges so I judge not. Yes, please bring both Vettes.
I'm also praying for proper weather.
