Default any 1 can

anyone can run, last fall there was a guy on a lawnmower running, yes a lawnmower

you can try to hit a target speed, lets say your car runs 150mph, sign up for 150 and who ever gets closer to 150 wins that class

anymore questions let me know, will be out there early fri, or thursday night to get a good spot, we will be the crowd drinking Patron,

Of course you can run Mikes Z is much faster in the mile than my blower car, he just missed the magical 200 in Oct and I hit a mere 180, so my HP was not enough compared to his Juiced Z

Looks interesting and I might sign up. How do you know what class to choose? Not sure what my car would do in 1 mile.

I'm already registered, and ready. It will take a disaster to keep me from showing up. Hope to catch you guys out there again! Maybe I can get me a lil more mph than last year.
