I'm pretty sure i'll be there with my S10 buddy....we'll see.


Has Tristate been strict about the 13.99 or faster helmet thing? Last time i ran there i was in fordfan's car and was running 13.10s all day without a helmet and nobody ever said anything. At the time i thought it was 12.99 or faster for a helmet. I don't have a helmet and my car is finally running 13s, hopefully very low 13s if i can get it to hook. Anyone have a big head that can loan me a helmet?

That'd be awesome. I've been to both tracks running 13 flat in another car and nobody ever said anything about a helmet. Then the one time i crack 13s in mine i get busted, and it was only 13.89. I think it would've gone 13.50s with the stock heads and cam if i could've got it to hook up. Then on top of that i blew out the traction lock and was 1 wheel peeling all night and jacked up my drag radials. Now i've got the rear end locking up nice and it should hook well enough to hopefully run low 13s and *maaaaybe* crack a 12.99 if luck is on my side.

Cool, me and the posse are getting our crap together :lol:

My buddy's got a 355ci S10 and he's been running 13.20s in it but they didn't say a word to him at Edgewater...i break a 13.80 and they give me crap for it. Now he's freaking out too because he didn't think he needed a helmet either and he's afraid they'll shut us down after one pass so i'll definitely take the loaner if they ask.
