Re: When is it too cold to race?

We did have one guy run a 8.18 but only had a 8.50 cage. The rules are this: must have dot tires...

looking to paint my car a dark purple

I need to find a dark purple paint for my car that is in the body shop now. I would like a dark color like this chevelle if anyone knows of a dark color like that and knows a paint number/code that would really help. Thanks

The n/a guys were running 9.50 at this last race. The next race will have a bigger car count and should see low 9's or even an 8.90. The next race is on the 4th of july and should have about 40 cars between rs/n and rs/u cars.

Sure do. The blue camaro is a 434 with nitrous and the red mustang is a small block with a turbo.
We had 4 cars run in the 8's this year. Last year wayne and I were the only one's to do so. This class is really taking off.
