I was wondering if you guys wanted to meet up at the track someday to do some friendly drag races.

I'm thinking of:Auto Club Speedway9300 Cherry Ave.Fontana, CA 92335

We missed the street legal dates for this month as they're today and tomorrow.

But for December, it's the 6th and the 7th. It's 20 bucks to do it and you get more than once try. I don't know. I've never done something like this but it seems fun. Let me know what you guys think.

You usually need to be there at 6am to avoid long lines.

no other NICO coupes in my area i'm going to try and go on the 26th (3 weeks from now) if it doesn't rain. my friend's bringing his fixed up E500 and we might get some fixed up 545i, 745i, 645i, and maybe a G35 and maybe even my friend with a 335i..... but we're still planing things out.....

so are you going N/A to the track blake?

Oh come on man, it's 20 bucks plus gas to get there.

Come on, you can't leave me alone to race Blake.

I need to see how much of a difference my performance mods actually make over the stock 2.5.

Ok... so I need to know if you guys are still down or if anyone else is down. This date is fast approaching. It's not this Sunday, but the Sunday after.

My brother and his FXers have commitments from 7 people. I'ld really like a 2.5 (Rob.Vegan) to go so I can race with. And Blake, my bro said there is an FX that is turboed that you could race.

Usually this is an all day thing so we could chip in some money or take some food cuz they take bar b q's to make lunch and what not.

I might be down to take our supercharged Titan out there...We've been talking about taking it to the strip.

Just don't laugh at me when I screw up the launch, reaction time and whatever else I can mess up since I don't drag race hahaha.

Well, the thing is, I think we have to catch this place on an open run day. I dunno anything about the logistics of this dragstrip but Im pretty sure they run NRHA events. We would have to schedule around those.

Kyle, do you guys have a particular place you run your cars?

I will not be able to make the "End of Year SoCal Meet" so I will go to the drag strip on Sunday.

Blake, when do you plan on heading down? Is there going to be a meeting spot so we can all go in together?
