masondixon is in hagerstown and is nice, when the Northern virgina mustang club holds their private drag day event is when I go there and run, I most likely will run my 89 vert as it's a new build, here in April when they hold the event , it is from 8-12 and only mustangs run and those who are part of the club....truth be told , you don't even have to be part of the club, just know about the event show up and run as much as you want for 4 hrs, cost at the gate is 60 bucks, one guy last year clocked 35-40 runs

MIR is a class track. I'll drive by two local tracks to go there. Great management does the trick. There Fun Ford Event in Oct. is second to none!

Yeah, too cold of a stat in an EFI car and it won't go into closed loop, so it ends up running rich.
