your in BSP then, though im not sure about the wastegate (wga?). No suspension mods? braces and such will put you in ridiculous classes.

BSP has one national champion and two nationally competitive drivers, in well prepped cars, so you'll be fighting for fourth. There are only a few other drivers in that class, and its rare that we all show up. I run BSP.

If you want a bigger class and a chance for first then try SM.

I was actually joking. I think people like to leave their times painted on their cars, living in the area i see it pretty often.

Best are the groups of hondas/veedubs that have 14's and 15's written ... oh so impressive

Really? Cause I completely disagree with you... how many timeshave you ever been to the Grove, once maybe? Track is top notch, one of the best and fastest the NHRA goes to.

ATCO is too far, not to mention it's in Jersey... (oops, just did)

How about Cecil? You haven't seen rednecks racing until you've been to Cecil... Not to mention you can have open container just about anywhere you want there.

No offense Tim, but you'll have no shot at 1st in SM either... Unless Marc, Bob, Steve and a few others don't show up... Its not as competitive as BSP, but its still fairly tough.

I've been to the grove at least a dozen times. I know NHRA runs there, but its like a different track when they do... prep is EVERYTHING and the grove doesn't do any prep for street car nights which is why it sucks.

Cecil is "ok", always have my fastest times there (not by accident).

I've been to almost every track with a 300 mile radius (grove, island, atco, etown, cecil, capitol, even NED). remember, before I started to do the stuff with turns I was all about drag racing. IMO, atco has the best prep, best air, fastest track, best price and coolest people.

I'm not good at planning things, just an idea guy. If someone wants to take the initiative and set it up I'll be there whether its a week night or week day. I just want to do some passes with people.

I'd be up for atco on a tuesday or thursday but i have night class those nights.
fridays are good but can get crowded quick & i usually work.
Sunday test and tunes are real good, laid back, good prep last times i've been but it's like $30 to run instead of $15. Good for trying to hit fast times but prolly not the best for just a quick test and tune.
I think i may have a group of friends going on a sunday in the next few weeks but am not sure 100% on the date yet. I'll post back when i'm sure.

I havent been to Cecil or the grove this year..Atco is a great track for RWD cars but the waterbox makes it difficult to cut better then average 60 foot times in an evo.. I still have not ran my car this year but I will need a good 2 weeks to be in "shootout mode".. I at least want to get kicked out next time
