I would like an autocross on the parking lot. More people can participate in that and its alot more fun IMO.

It's definitely not NJMP, but it is still a pretty fun track.

Maybe next time they do an Evo vs STI shoot out they will offer a track day or at least a time attack. I would be there in a heart beat.

This video is a perfect example of what I'm talking about...

Again, this is only my observation. I could be wrong. I'm sure others will argue that it is a good track, but to me, it just looks like crap.

Again I'm not saying it's a great track, but it is still a good time.

Also that is the video from Saturday. It rained all day Friday and Saturday morning when that video was shot. If you look at the video from Sunday there wasn't any water on the track. I know because I was there :).

I didn't mean to turn this into an argument, I was only saying I prefer road racing/ time attack to drag racing. In my opinion no local track can compare to NJMP but you can still have a good time at E-town.

Not sure about vendors, but good question... I know they come to the official Mitsu vs STI day. I'll be there with my X.

evoxjersey Mar 4, 2010 02:04 PM

so how about we get a group going but i would probaly leave around 4;30

streetdreams552 Mar 4, 2010 07:06 PM

4.30....im guessing that was a mistake?

EEVOH Mar 4, 2010 08:09 PM

The EVO and STI's are just a bracket. The race day is also streetwars, Import vs Domestic. Should still be a fun day though. I will be there spectating since my evo is barely broken in. I'll also be cheering for the subies :p

evox13 Mar 5, 2010 04:13 AM

allison Mar 5, 2010 12:04 PM
