Pro Pits and FRIDAY NIGHT DROP OFF
We will be utilizing the "Pro Pits" which will provide power for big rigs, more room for everyone and the best part a much better location to spectate from. The disadvantage of them is Friday night setup as FIR will be hosting their Friday night drags. Early Friday setup is welcomed between 3-5PM. Between 5:00-10:30PM you'll be charged as a "Fri night drag spectator" to come in and setup. FIR officials will also be performing their drag race tech inspections in the Pro Pits area so drivers will need to be respectful of their space needs, especially since the track is allowing us to setup early for our event.

[boozebag]

What's it need?

Hopefully the diff. doesnt need to be rebuilt. It was acting really sketchy at east. It might just be a control arm. Basically when you get on the gas it pulls super hard to the left, then when you let off it pulls super hard to the right. I have no idea how my dad was tracking that thing, it scared the hell out of me just going like 50% throttle on the street! I'm almost done with my finals so after that i'll get it dialed in again. Will you be out there gabe?? i love main, so fun!

[*inFamous*]

I will be there, in some capacity. Kinda hoping to be out in the Integra if its done by then. Otherwise we'll whip the NSX out.

Found out what it was. So the front lca where it connects to the subframe broke out the welded nut that holds it. We had to fish it through a tiny ass hole, line it up and get it tight again. Such a pain in the ass. Now i gotta take it to a welder to have them through a spot weld back on it. Good to go again now tho!

[BlueTeg]

Bizzaro! Sounds like something that would happen to my bucket. LOL

I'll be out there! Hopefully I have a better 2012 than 2011....

[94jezer]

Dropped the Teg off to Junior today for the roll bar. I CAN'T WAIT! :D

I'm hoping this is going to build up my confidence level more to push me and my car more but doing it in a safe manner.
