There's a gas station with e-85 in hudson, i'm sure I'll stop to fill up there, and i'll get a full tank to show up with. We should meetat an early time in woodbury somewhere I think, unless people would rather meet up somewhere closer this way, and caravan there. Up to you all. I'm still working out things on the talon, and seeing if funds are allowing me to go.

Scheides, you should probably plan your fuel usage and arrive to the track with ~ 1/2 tank of BP93 from the Cities.
Way back in the day we would use the same Cub Foods parking lot to meet at that we used this past weekend for the cruise.
I'd join you guys if I wasn't going to be on my way to Texas!

Time trials begin at 9am so what would be a good time to meet at that Cub Foods in Woodbury? Better yet, what's a good time to get to the track? That worked out really good this past Saturday, I'm game to meet there again if anyone wants to.

What we usually do is try to meet at a gas station around 7am. Meet there, get some drinks/food for the ride. Leave around 7:15-7:30am. We usually get to RF by 8:30-8:45am. Depending on how busy RF will be since it is the last day, probably want to get there as early as possible (8-8:30am) because when we went there about 2 years ago (my second time going) there was a line of cars maybe 2-3 blocks from the raceway.

I was thinking about coming out to take pics until I read back a page, then decided that I'd probably be appreciated more at work.
I completely forgot, the fact that I've been to CFR and spun my piss-slow car off the line means nothing because you guys have heard that they prep well. Prep is fine and dandy until the 16 year old tool running the burnout box sprays it down so well that the water gets tracked up to and 10 feet past the line. I dunno, maybe I got there too late, and maybe the friends of mine who frequent there have no idea what they're talking about either... But what do I know, I can't even tighten my own lug nuts or keep my car on the pavement. All I can tell you is that I had a bad experience there, and I know people who've had frequent bad experiences there and don't plan on going back anytime soon.

Honestly, for my first time out, I don't expect much. I want to spin them off the line..saves drivetrain. If I don't miss a gear, and can get a decent pass in, drive home, i'm happy.
Charles, come, take pics..I need some. Keep in mind, all cars must go through tech before racing, so make sure batteries are tied down, cut-off switches are installed correctly (need to get a new one/redo mine) and etc.

To elaborate on Swifty's post, batteries must be attached with bolts and metal so no bungee cords. Also, no open crankcase breathers (they weren't that strict on this years ago when I used to go, but things may have changed).
