what the ****. That Saturday is now listed as a "No ET Nationals"....I mean its great to have the classic "arm drop racing", but I was really hoping for a chance to run a 13.4x time slip.

It lists from 11-?. So they still do the TNT during the day time? I think I remember you saying that you have been to one of their "No ET Nationals". They said that they saw a "huge turnout", so if they still do the TNT I'm going to get their early and run my passes before the huge crowd shows up, assuming I can get the morning shift off.

Yeah, today was pretty eventful...Mother Nature had quite the workout.

It's still a little warmer that I thought it would be at this time of year. I hope it holds up in our favor on the first...

To be honest with you guys, I would go Nov 1st and bring the contour but the woman is off of work for a month now (it's already been a week without work!). Now bills are going to suffer

Hey Jack, peanut butter will get track sealer off your quarter panels. Not sure if crunchy or smooth peanut butter works best

I'm sure your serious but I used some Turtle Wax Bug and Tar Remover that Jason (mygt5000) recommended. I had used it before but not the correct way. I just used it on a cloth and rubbed the fender and it hardly removed anything. You're supposed to spray it on and let it sit for a while dissolving the contaminate then wipe off. It worked very well. He also recommended I use painters blue tape on the rear quarter panels when I go to the track. Great idea!
