PM me when you pay so I can give them a heads up.

Copied from the original post from the guy who organized it:

Dragway 42
9161 Rainbow Highway
West Salem, OH 44287
(419)853-4242


Yes it is official. We will have the track on the 26th of july from 10 a.m. to 3p.m. This rental will be in conjunction with Buckeyegoats. If we do not have enough registered by mid second week of july I will open the rental up to other locall drivers. Everything will be provided. Track will be prepped to the 330 mark. Both lanes will be open. One lane will be dedicated to slicks and radials only. If you run 13.99 or faster Snell/DOT approved helmet is required. Pants are required and t-shirts are fine. Motorcycles must have a Snell/DOT helmet with full shield, full-sleeve protective jacket, long pants, and over-the-ankle-shoes. If you run faster than 10 you will need full protective gear. Like ray said the are a good bunch of guys and basically let you run what you have(unlike trails) If you do not follow these rules you will be ejected instantly. It will be open for the first 60 cars @ $40.00 a person since we do not have any sponsors helping as of this point. Well here it is come get some!!!!

Here is the link to make payments. Please enter your name, username, year, make, and model of the car that will be driven at the track before clicking on pay now. The expandable box to enter this info is on the left hand side of the screen.


*paypal link giving me problems. Just PM me for payment info

Okay for the couple guys interested in the track day:
Not as many cars signed up as expected. Instead of a 60 car we are doing 30 now. Obviously the price had to go up some. It will now be $60. If you want a day to be able to make 40+ passes and really do some true testing and tuning this is it. There are only a couple spots left so let me know ASAP. PM me if you want to go.

Keep in mind you will literally not wait to make passes. They also have a super loose tech, so if you break 11.5 you wont get booted.

On another side note I ordered an FP Red so I will have a white rabbit 9 up for grabs also.

I spotted a WW IX MR near the corner of S. Green and Chagrin Blvd in Beachwood today a little after 12:00pm. Anybody on here or does anybody know the guy? I was too busy looking at the car to notice who was driving.

Also, check this out: I have 18x9 +30 Rota SVN's with 245/40 Bridgestone RE-01R's. I have no rub at all on the driver's side rear, but I have a little on the passenger's side rear. It's not that bad, but I found it kind of odd. I'm running RaceComp Engineering springs on stock KYB's, by the way. The fenders are not rolled. I guess there are just inconsitancies in the cars from left to right, eh? Anybody have any other thoughts?
