Not necessarily. You need to pick the right days to go to e-town. We got over 9 runs in one night.

Never go on a Wednesday......that nights for the "big boys" and A LOT of them at that.

Don't go before a big event (you wanna go friday, but it Corvette challange on Saturday.....don't go....period)

You want good track prep? Go after a major event

Hmm, so probably about 2 hours from our area. I wonder if it gets crowded in the winter months seeing as that E-town closes.

Let's set something up. I'm sure a few local cars would cruise down.
