Oh, and if you don't get there when the doors open at 6AM forget about getting one of the 400 run tickets - they sell out fast.
Now, if you have access to a club sponsored test and tune event that's a different story. I know a couple of guys who've gone that route and got in 8 or more passes in just a few hours.
yep.. same one, unfortunately we don't have any other 1/4 mile places than this one. irwindale is only 1/8 mile. club route would be nice but i dont know any drag racers.
i figured it can't be any worse for me as i drove to Infineon and only got to do one run. :-)
if you guys know of any place better then i'm down. will drive as far as south as San Diego and as far north as Vegas (this one might require some planning and might as well make a vacation out of it).
