Cordova Dragway Midnight Mayhem... Friday August 31st
Anybody going? I'll probably go early for the test & tune and stick around until 3:00 AM or so... The weather forecast looks awesome, starting out in the mid 70's and should dip into the 50's later in the night.

See you there... There aren't any stickers on my car but I'll probably be the only victory red SS-SC there with polished rims.
It can get chilly after midnight so I'd take a sweatshirt or long sleeve shirt if I were you.

I think I'm calling it quits on the track for awhile, but if the clutch straightens out and I get an urge I'll check into Earlville at the end of this month.

Still stuck at 14.4, no traction and my clutch slips in 2nd and 3rd... Guess I'll have to start driving like I stole it instead of grandma'ing around town. MPH went up to 99 though from 98, engine must just be starting to loosen up a bit now with 2400 miles on the clock.

I told you! Can't granny drive it....I used to drive it like that and mine started slipping bad....starting driving like I mean it, and I haven't had a problem since.
I'm getting stage II and custom tune on the 23rd of this month. Looks like they are having another Friday Fun Night on September 28th and October 12th is the last one of the season. You should come out one of those nights. I'm sure my hubby and I will go at least the 28th, since I want to see how my car will run after the tune & stage II.
And Earlville is having races on the 30th? We might try to make it up to that one (we are originally from Dubuque) and my hubby has been wanting to take his WRX up to Earlville ebcause that track runs SO much better....we'll see.
I just looked at Earlvilles' website and it looks like the next T&T is Sept 29th and October 21st. We might be able to make it up for the 21st, but the 29th we have plans.
