So my friends & I are heading to famoso this weekend. We've been there before but for a private event, but never for street legals. So my question to you guys who have been there before, how does this track work/function? Do you have to show up early? Is it categorized like Fontana? limited to 500 cars? Etc...Thanks for the info in advance.

 

Bump... Anyone?

 

no it is not limited i try to be there early so that i can get through tech inspection quick it gets pretty backed up. are you going this weekend?

 

Thanks for the reply. Yes we are going this weekend. Do you know if it categorized by groups? Ie, do they call out group one to come up & run? Then 2, 3 etc.... About how many runs would you average?

 

call the track up?

I've always wanted to go to that track

 

Looks like that's what I'm going to do. I thought maybe someone from here has been there done that. Thanks for the idea.

 

btw a lot of us will be at Irwindale on the 18th if you want to go as well

 

Tried calling the track no answer. I'll try again later. The cost is higher though. A 2 day pass is $80 for car & driver. 1 day is $50. What happened to $20? Lol it beter be worth it.

I'll try to make it out to irwindale. Hopefully I'll install my heat exchanger & honed manifold by then.

 

just spent the weekend at mc farland. Got to run Saturday & Sunday. Sunday was the best day since the track spent more time closed for cleanning than actual racing. Overall, real nice track prepped real nice. Got a new PB of 12.32 @ 110 on the GTO.

Also ran in to a guy with a red turbo SS. I believe he said he was on a trifecta tune only with everything else stock. I saw him pull a 13.3 @ 107. I think this was 1st time out too if I remember correctly. Anyhow, that was a nice time for a tune only SS TC

 

Nice time!

I'll have to look up the next day they got open

 

Thanks!
This was the last test & tune for this year. I'm waiting for them to put next years schedule. I want to try out the cobalt after I drop in my honed manifold, 2.85 and zzp HE. All parts are just sitting in my garage just waiting to be installed. Hopefully I'll have it done by the time you guys head out to irwindale. Hoping to break an 8 over there.

 

u have 2 many cars =p

 

I was there with a friend of mine. We were in The white Titan. Cobalt had a good run, i got it on film. I also have a few vidz of your GTO

 

Post them up!

 

my friend with the stillen S/C Titan has em still its his camera we were using that day. But i will get em.

The we have he ran a 13.5 @ 107 and smoked a STI LOL

 

Cool. I'd greatly appreciate it you can post them up. I was racing against my brother in his camaro. Funny, he stalled on the launch on his 3rd run. My other brother had the blue camaro with the primer hood.
