Found my SIR directions!

Yay!

"The racetrack is located east of Kent on HWY 18. From I-5 take exit 142-A. Go East to the 304-312th St. exit. Just follow the signs to the track"

Thats it! Printed right off of SIR's site (when it was up)

Cool beans m8 !

I saw a map of the track, will you guys be using the track or the dragstrip? Is there an entrance fee ?

I had to have a screaming chicken so this is what my car should look like, it wont be ready for SIR though

Now if having this chicken on my hood makes you consider my sexual preference, then so be it, I think its awesome and my T/A wouldnt be a T/A without one !

Yes I understand this much, the strip is also a straight section of the track, I was wondering what you guys will actually be doing besides T&T...Do you run the cars on the track or the strip ot both?

I believe that the rest of the track is closed when the strip is in use.

They only use one at a time, the strip is the main straight away for the road course. We'll only be doing T&T wednesday entrance is 20 bucks I believe.

Entrance is 20 bucks and entrance if you are not racing is 7 bills. Just spend the extra cash and do some TNT with us! It's money well spent and you will have fun!

Sounds good craiger but I think I will have to just watch, my car idles a lil rough and wont even spin the tires on a holeshot. The engine light came on over the weekend and If I can resolve that on Wed. with the help of crusader, that would make my day. The motor will knock slightly on accel even with premium so it must need to be timed. I made the mistake of removing the 160 deg Tstat after finding out this was an enhancement to the 305. (although I thought it was outrageous to take 10 mins to warm up !)

On the otherhand it would be good to establish a baseline for future T&T.
It took me a few days just to discover I have a K&N and Im looking forward to completing the basic hop-ups for my TPI.

I'm going, but I'm not running my car. I don't want to embarass 'the crew' with a pitiful time slip!
