So, even a scardy cat can take one down the track? I'll do that. Probably not full throtle though. I'll also try to find out who else around here is going.

Shor was the new drag racer 2 years ago i think. Last year he made about 25 passes in his Yenko Chevelle. It is a great place to learn to play. You don't even have to race anybody. Just come play with your car. If Lamarr comes he can show you the ropes...

I really want to urge anybody that is bringing a Supercar that has kinda thought it would be neat to try the drag strip but had never tried it before to let us know. There are a couple things to pass tech but no big deal. The main thing a restored car does not have is a overflow for the radiator and two throttle return springs. Those are easy and wont mess up your car. We can add a soda can at the track for the overflow. If you need mechanical help at the track there are plenty of us to help. You don't have to all out trash your car at the track to have fun. I'm a crappy drag racer but I still have fun.

Ray, Take the car down! You can do it! You can make 5 easy passes than stomp it when you are comfortable.
