Kindof confusing, cause sport compacts are allowed at any fun race, but the first fun race is on the 7th, and the first date for sport compacts is the 15th? or is that the sport compact only date? whatever I'm planning on going on the 7th. Anyyone else in?

i really want to go to some of those. a guy on [FJ] just did a high 13 with 10 lbs of boost. i want to do some low 12s

Whenever I've run out there, I've run on sport compact days. If I remember right they are cheaper, plus you get to beat on hondas all day I have a few trophys from there too, haha.

I don't think I'll be out there running for a while. My car isn't fast enough (in my eyes) to waste the time on the 1/4 strip yet.

i would like to go i think my friend and I are going to bring our bikes out there and watch some races....

I like the fun races. The SC races are always busy.

i went to a fun day a long time ago, and it was alot of fun

I should take my auto and see how it does. Then once I do the 6 speed swap I will go back and compare!!
