ALright man, I'm in!!!!
As long as my clutch cable comes in Thur like it is supposed to, I'm racing for sure.
This should be VERY interesting.
Last time I raced a couple of months back, was at palmdale. I got a 14.9 on that ****ty ass track, with my ****ty rear suspension (which has since been completely revised...air bag, kyb's, quad shocks...so no more wheel hop) Not only that, but you gave me that dist which seems to have the advance working, where I suspect my old one never worked right.
It is VERY VERY possible I could hit my first 13....then they'll send me home and I'll have to invest all kinds of cash I don't have on a helmut and a cage...we'll see though, without sticky tires, I'll probably just sit at the line.

bitter-sweet.
because we're california, in the last 5 years, we've had at least two, maybe three tracks shut down permanently, one shut down for street legals, and a brand new upcoming track get cancelled before it ever got built.
Only 2 tracks left....both get every damned cali ricer in the state to show, so 8 hours = one run if you're lucky.

Glad to hear you will be planning for this one.... I got a spare adjustible clutch cable from Brother's Performance if'n you need it; lemme know...... I only use it as a "spare" in the trunk for just in case..... Yeah, we do get crowded out here at the track and the prep probably will not be the best. I probably will not have slicks in time for this weekend and i too need a helmet. But, I can borrow Bill's helmet; it's tighter than heck on my head but it'll work in a pinch...
P.S. Aluminum drive shaft, driveshaft safety loop, Exploder diff, 31 spline race axels, etc are all in....

I'll go for sure. I wont have anything to race though The 86 GT is down due to a bad alignment from a rack replacement. I just haven't had the time to drive the car into an alignment shop.

Aw nuts, and I was thinking of bringing the '78 Wagon with it's slightly warmed over 2bbl 302 for laughs. Do they require a helmet for 16 second 1/4 mile?

Well for Southern California, the only two tracks that I know of that are still open to the public for street legal drag races are in Irwindale and Fontana. There is a track in Pomona but it's not open to the public.

Since you is way out in the O.C.(I believe); you may have a couple options:
Irwindale, Ca. (Irwindale Speedway), 1\8 mile, Most Thursday nights.
California Speedway, Fontana,Ca. 1\4 mile, eclectic schedule, go to www.californiaspeedway.com and click on the "drag racing" icon for info.
Bakersfield,Ca. 1\4 mile, near sea level, and the best hooking track you can hope for.
I don't have any details since it is too far for me to bother driving there(3.45-4 hours one way).

I just called california speedway, they said they haven't determined if the drags for this saturday will be canceled or not. She said try calling back later today or tomorrow. If anyone wants to try calling back later, the number is 909-429-5060
