Went. It's wonderful watching your check engine light coming on for misfires in 4 cylinders, feeling the engine surging, and blowing a turbo hose while going down the track. I have a lot of work to do today.

Only got in two runs because the car was not running up to par for sure. Got there at around 6, and left at around 8:30ish. I would say about 45 cars or so.

That's rough man.

How much did you pay to get in, sorry I keep asking this question, but they don't have it anywhere on their site.

JoshV70
03-10-2007, 08:57 PM
Cost me $25 bucks...IIRC $15 to race, and $10 for a spectator.

you should of went through the water box, got out of the car with a blow dryer and dried the tires then go.

C'DALERIDER
03-12-2007, 12:31 PM
i dont know about them letting you do that, but Atco sucks cause cant go around the water box.
so yah, Atco sucks for traction unless you light'em up to the line.

peteyturbo
03-12-2007, 10:38 PM
I tried that on the last run, got bad wheel hop..Mabye it was because of my snow tires but I am not a fan of doing that anyway, especially with the stock clutch still..i dont know about them letting you do that, but Atco sucks cause cant go around the water box.

you can't go around the water box but sometimes you can drive to either the left or right to minimize the amount of water on your tires. I then do a quick spin up to the line to clean them off. For me its good for consistant 1.7 60's on blizzaks.

It was my luck that the guy drenched the waterbox JUST FOR ME 3 times that night..

yeah, sometimes I think they do that **** on purpose for the imports...
