What's the rules/regs on temp? Does it have to be a certain temp for them to open? That could be a factor along with rain as we get deeper into Nov. I'll do my best to make whatever day it is.

I've seen frozen burnout box videos....

Temps under freezing can be an issue but we had a couple rentals that were pretty damn cold with no issues.

I will keep folks posted after I chat again with Atco. Maybe we will even get a few extra racers out of the change.

Checking the forecasts this afternoon and only one is 10% or less chance of rain with all others showing less. Unless there is a wild swing in the numbers tomorrow, we are good to go.

THE RENTAL IS A GO FOR MONDAY.

^^^^ hahahaha

Do we have a final count of racers attending yet? Just curious.

Right now it's 8 but I will perhaps bring my Z as well.

Making the final call tomorrow morning. Rain is back in the forecast.

Beggs did a bang up job with the rain dance. The rental is rescheduled to MONDAY, NOVEMBER 20th!

Friend is bringing his grill and burgers/dogs, drinks, chips, etc. Whoever wants to eat can give him some $.

See everyone tomorrow.

Had a "great time" today guys, actually a few great times. Fuel pump crapped out on the SS but the Z showed up to party. I'm ready for spring Racewars. Thanks for putting it together BB.

Def a great day and glad we could get it done. More pics, vids, and commentary to come. My clutch needs a few months to cool lol.

Was fun to get back to a racewars despite some clutch woes. Big thanks to Brian for coordinating and sticking after it when the first date fell through!

Always fun hanging out with this group. Congrats on the PBs guys!

Thomas and I had a great day! I broke into the 11's on the 2nd pass of the day and was very happy with that. I was hoping to break the G8 GT bolt-on record of 11.955 and kept clicking off 11.96x. Late in the afternoon after most people had left I was getting ready to load up and hit the road but I decided to make a few more passes. Lo and behold, 11.932!!! Not only that, I witnessed Brian make his last and best pass of the day. I couldn't have asked for a better ending to Racewars 2017. Brian, it was my idea to joke you with the bogus timeslip. Just by chance, there was a 10.79 slip in the basket. Sorry. LOL! Brian, thanks for all you do to make this happen, I really appreciate all your effort. My pit crew must have been overworked as this was the result.

That's awesome, John! Congrats!!!

Nice work, John! Great 60' there

John, that's an awesome 60'. What stall are you running?

A couple for now just to get the ball rolling

Thanks, Mike!

Thanks, Adam!

Thanks, Nick! I'm running a Circle-D 3000rpm 258mm single disc.

I'm really glad folks had a good time. It's definitely motivating for me to keep this moving year after year.

John - Great job on the new best and record run! You definitely got me on the faux timeslip. I'm asking myself "I thought it went better than that....".

Let's keep the media train rolling.

Best run of the day.

Excellent job on the videos!

Kudos go to Jon. I'm happy he got a good shot at the red light so it didn't seem like I fell totally asleep at the light. ;)

Racewars made Jalopnik!

Awesome! Maybe next year I'll have the car done and actually have new drag radials to run on.
