If your slip is under 14, than they will ask where the helmet is. If you don't have a helmet I think they take your run card away.

Quote: I guess I'll be driving to CS myself since there seems to be no SFV/L.A caravan. I'll be there 6:00 A.M Sharp. Derek, I'll be using your DR's for the first run since you were kind enough to offer them for the drag day.

Hopefully we have a video & camera man here who can film us doing our runs

.
I think Rookie might bring one? (he did in Apr or whenever that was)... I think Derek might have mentioned bringing one too... We need to have footage of you smokin' Wally!!!!!

My buddy Tim might bring his wife... maybe they will bring one? Tim I know your reading this - bring one dude!

Got the Osiris tune today - review in the tuning section... we'll see how it goes on race gas at the track. I guess I'm buying track gas (unless Viet wants to sell me a gallon or 2 )

Mike, you might need a helmet. If the track has good traction, with these colder conditions, I think you will be in the 13's.

I'll have a video camera for footage, my can of 104 is only 4 gallons I think. Just put as much 100 in there as needed tomorrow and that's a better miz than using a gallon or 2 of 104.

I will have my helmet for anyone that wants to use it.

I will ask my friend if I can borrow his motorcycle helmet just to have a extra one.
Just in the case the guy with the recent tune breaks into the 13's!

I will also have my video camera.

are you guys going to park as always near the time board?

I know parking way back there is not so crowded.

Park near the time board? That's a freakin hike, the time slip booth is a hike.

I was thinking near the area in July (or whenever the 102 temps was last)... that's far enough back to have enough room (we're gonna need the room)... but not too far from staging or the stands...

BTW - the pressure about breaking into 13's is giving me jitters... you guys need to let up

If I slap the DR on I'll slap a helmet on!

I lent Terry my spare cycle helmet ...So you can be ready for sub 13 sec's...
If he follows my tips, he might dip into the 12's......

Good luck out on the 1320.....

Iam out....have to work....

i think if the temps are at mid 50s and with 2.1 60ft time we both might hit that magic number.

Hey guys, I'm gonna try to make it as well. Once again I was unable to get some DR's awwwww!!! Anyone have an extra rear DR setup I could borrow or a run or two? If not no prob...i'll see how 618lbs torque holds up on stock 18in wheels&tires

Rookie - where are you guys leaving from in westmin and what time? 5am?

Also I cant remember...does CS sell 100+octane? If not the station down the street from me(76 station off La Paz and 5 Freeway) sells 100 at the pump so I'll get some their.

Thanks
