its not a performance shop per say.

I work at Simply we can install the injectors but we do not do tuning. You can go to topspeed... but I have seen there work and had to fix there work before. Tune wise I think they are one of the better shops around here. If you consider ATL around here. We do bolt ons but like Jason said we are not a performance shop just happen that both me and the manager have DSMs and know our way around Evos as well. If you need any help feel free to PM me.

yes it does blow,, on thurs,, be there at 645.. you can get 3-5 runs before it gets busy.. then leave,, thats what I do..

Sundays,,,, get there at 1,, sundays are usually busier during the beginning and slack off during the end. However, they gamblers are busy gambling you can get a few runs in..

I might go today. think chance of rain will keep the track dead.

Jackson is not that bad. They just have alot of breaks there. If no one brings half built crap out there then you can get 5 or 6 runs in and it hooks pretty good out there.

I went to Jackson a couple of sundays ago. I got a lot of runs and tuning in. It was dead it seemed. It was great for me though. I was like wow people don't go to this track a lot. It's not going to stay open with this sort of business. I've been to Commerce, Rockingham, Darlington, and Jackson 1/4 strips. I don't like Jackson because you cannot around the waterbox. I must have went on a day it was dead, but the key to going to the strip is getting there before the doors open so you can get many runs in early. Have your car ready to go and not work on the car at the track which I see a bunch of people doing.

When we use to bring the black car up there. We would get at least 7 runs in per night. We do't leave the shop until 6:30-7:00 so we usually got there around 7:30 and we still had to unload it off the trailer and connect the driveshaft. No doubt Jackson is not going to be as nice as a NHRA track. But you do not have to worry about the stupid *** rules like you would at commerce and some of the nicer tracks.

Jackson hooks. If you cannot get around the water box spin the tires over real quick and get the water off. I do it anyways to get dirt off the tires.

Also didn't you go on a night when there were just imports/street cars at the Zmax track? Back in the day when Jackson did street nights you could get a butt load of runs in.
