Byron Dragway Opens Next Weekend (4/2-4/3)! Anybody going???

Well it's finally almost here... Race Season

Just wondering if anyone is planning on heading out to Byron next weekend (April 2nd and 3rd) to break in the new (or improve on the old) set-ups?

I'm hoping I can make it out Saturday morning or Sunday afternoon for a few pulls. Unfortunately for me, things didn't quite turn out the way I had hoped. Had to sell the Green that I bought last fall due to finances ... and still haven't been able to pick up an Evo 9 turbo or make the conversion to E85. But I did get a Grimmspeed 3 port and a Spoolin Up COP thrown on a few weeks ago so I'm still hoping to see some improvement.

Hope to see some of you guys next weekend!

Planning on going this weekend too.

The shop Evo 9 is sporting the stock turbo. We will have it on Speed Density, and E85. Our goal is a mid to bottom 11 second pass!

The talon is not ready yet.....been busy with customers cars! When we get some free time we will get the Talon ready.

We will be out in April with it, so dont worry!

See you guys there!!!

That's too bad you won't be able to run man. It's OK though, I'm sure you'll still have a good time... Half the fun for me is just walking around checking out other people's cars.

I'd love to go, but there's too much going on. I definitely need to get back out there and see how much better she's doing after the recent changes. (Thanks Devin)

I'll probably end up going out the following week on the 10th if they have TnT available. I don't know for sure if they do though because every time I try to get on their website my damn computer freezes up.

I believe they're running only T&T on both days both this weekend and the weekend of the 9th and 10th. So you'll be good either way.

You definitely should have come out! There were only about 40 or 50 cars out there and they were running 'em like crazy!! I got 10 runs in in about 2 and a half hours and I easily could've had more if I hadn't stopped to chat and make some changes in between runs.
