I will definitely go if the weathers all good. I'll probably try a run or two so I can see what my car is doing too.

Hello all! I just got back in town from my father in law having triple by pass surgery in San Diego. I will not be able to make the track saturday, but will be there sunday! I hope some of you show up. It's time for me to put up or shut up! Call my cell if anybody wants to go run or watch, I think it starts at 10:00a.m. but you can go to mirdrag.com and click on "this weekend". See you all soon. Jeff Hoping to crack 11.75 e.t.

I won't be able to make it on Sunday, because I have to work. I will be going Saturday and hopefully rep the srt6 well. I'll let you all know how I do. Hoping to beat your previous mark of 12.7 Jeff.

Well fellas, I just came back from MIR and my runs were a mixed bag. I only did three runs 12.89 @109.39 60' 2.058 (traction issues out the gate), 13.73 @108.78 60' 2.286 (engine bogged + traction), and 13.15 @109.45 60' 2.133 (traction no bog). The runs were done with traction control off and trans in 1st (let the trans shift itself). Im happy with the runs considering my all season Conti's arent really helping the cause.

Nice job, esp. the 12.89 good run on any tires. I'm going tommorow, I'm all loaded up on the trailer and ready to go! I'll post times tommorow eve. See ya Jeff.

Hell all, I was wondering how many people might be interested in renting a dragstrip for a day(either capitol raceway in crofton or MIR in budds creek )It has to be done on a weekday though, like a friday afternoon! Both the n/a cars and srt'6's. For the ones who have never raced it might be fun in a private setting and + if we have enough people it would be cheap, and you can run as many times as you like. I was thinking about bringing a couple of technicians with me and catering the event if anyone is up for splitting the track rental! Let me know, thanks, Jeff

Hey, if the price was right you can count me in. I wouldn't mind going out and making some runs. I can check it off my things to do list. I would even be willing to run against YOU. I think it would be fun seeing the rear end of your beast disappearing ahead of me!

Last call on the track deal, we will need 15 people to make it affordable, ask your friends or anyone that would like a track day to come join us! Or we will have to scrap the thought as the schedule is filling up at most tracks! Plus is anyone interested in another shop day? Do people have any parts to bolt on, oil to change, quirks to deal with,chime in and we can have a meet soon! Jeff.

Jeff,
Another shop day sometime within the next month would be great.
I would like to change my oil and I will probably order two tires from Tire Rack to be shipped to your place - but only if you will let me pay to have them put on.

When are you going to MIR again?

I plan on ordering some Rotex Gold pads and would like to get them installed. I like your idea of not turnng the rotors if not absolutely necessary. Most shops insist that they turn them when they install new pads. I don't know how long it will take to get the pads but would be interested in a shop date.
