It's Finally Here.... 2013 Opening Day at Byron Dragway!!!

Time to get the Evos out of hibernation guys!! The day we've all been waiting for is finally almost here. Byron opens this weekend with all day Test and Tune on both Saturday and Sunday.

Anybody thinking about going??

Weather is looking pretty good for Saturday- Upper 50's with a 20% chance of rain.

IMO, this is probably the best weekend out of the whole year to run. Cool temps keep the turbos happy and all day test and tune means we don't have to try to squeeze in between the bracket races and what not

I'm just going to watch on Saturday. I might run the white car for a few runs but will see. Junk Box will be done soon, but I dont think we can get it done before the 20th. If you make it to the track this weekend, good luck man

Text me bro and let me know what happens... IDK for sure if I'm going this Saturday now. I want to but I might have to work and the wife and baby need some family time.

IDK, I didn't go either. The weather ended up being up kinda crummy with the wind and chance of rain. I'm kicking my self for not going today though. It's almost perfect out!
