No idea about rentals. Maybe you could borrow one?
G/L tonight
Dang... that place has got their act together. Got me in past tech inspection and banned from the track in less than 10 minutes!!! I didn't even get a chance to do a throttle reset after sitting in rush hour traffic for an hour.
So I pulled in the entrance, was told to get in some line to get tech'd which took only enough time for me to fill out the form and the guy to ask me what motor i have in the car. I guess the tech guy has never seen an srt6 before.
Guy signs off the tech form and tells me to get in the car and follow some muscle car with a wheelie bar which turned out was going to be my dial-in run. I pretty much knew i'm going to be screwed and facing a slow run with heatsoak and no throttle reset.
Ended up doing 12.9 @ 107mph... not bad i thought considering i have brand new tires with just 300+ miles on it, running over the water box and forgot to take traction control off.
On my way to get my slip, guy told me he needed to speak with the "offender" being me :-) and that I can't race no more for 1) not having a helmet, and an NHRA approved roll bars which is required for convertibles faster than can do 13.49 or faster.
I gave em the "its my first time" deal and all i can get was a refund. I must say drag racing is actually fun albeit it'll only last 13 seconds or less. I guess i'll stick to doing road races.
Was hoping too that I get my CAI in time to try again next week im here in frisco... oh well
