    Is that the one at Lebanon Valley Dragway? If so, I'm going to try my hardest to make it.

    Yes, LVD. Looks like they will also have the same event late summer on 9/6 as well.

    I'm going to try my hardest to make the event as well... My car has basically sat in storage for 3+ years, so I have a number of unfinished projects and a potential H/C/I upgrade that I'd like to do to get her ready for the spring.

    I'm not sure. I didn't even know that FEP had a calendar. DOH! I went to Musclepalooza last labor day, as well as the labor day before that. I had a blast both times! I'm trying to talk my brother and my friends into going to this spring event. I really like how they break the bracket racing down by ET, such as the 10 second class, 11 second class, 12 second class, etc.... It makes for awesome side by side racing down the entire track.

    Yup http://vb.foureyedpride.com/calendar.php The menu button/link is right underneath the "Forum" button.

    Keep us posted on how well your persuasion skills fair as the event approaches. Hopefully once we get unburied from all this snow and mid-late March rolls around, the smell of spring will be in the air, folks look at their steeds under cover in the garage and begin to think about "show/event season" and we'll see more activity on this thread and in the New England events forum... Would be nice to have a strong FEP presence at one of the Musclepalooza events this year!

    Bracket racing is so much fun as well, it sure keeps things interesting!

    Once I get back from my February snowmobile trip in Maine, I'm gonna be thinking spring the whole way home and hopefully the snow will start to melt on my way back, lol! I'll be 100% focused on the car at that point and attempting to have her ready by April.

    Cool. Hopefully we can pull together a nice group, maybe even a small caravan if there are enough people coming from the same area or even meet in a designated spot to caravan in as a FEP group.
