    NMRA National Trails True Street 6/11/16...

    The True Street Class for NMRA is quickly coming up June 11th. Was hoping we would have a few guys/gals interested in making the drive up and entering this street class competition.

    Any one still going? Attached is the schedule for the race weekend. True Street runs Saturday and finishes Saturday. Gates open at 8:30am.

    Or for that matter anyone competing in other classes that weekend speak up so I can at least look you up if the chance allows that Saturday.

    Time trials are on 6/10 apparently. Not sure if making those are required or not. Round one is at 3pm for True Street and Bracket racers.

    Friday will be test and tune. Saturday you will make the cruise them 3 passes. That is of the weather cooperates. At BG last year I finally got to make 2 passes a lit 5:00 on Sunday.

    I'm still planning on going. I need to get a set of dot tires though I guess. I'd drive on slicks if aloud. Well as long as it's dry out!

    I think Im going to look into the Hoosier Quick Time Pro. I know my car doesn't like a drag radial. Suspension really needs some work!

    Sounds good. I may order the Whiteline rear sway bar kit and install it so I can run the 15x10's that have 295/50/15's on them. I do the sway bar relocation bracket kit but there is interference between the sway bar and LCA control arm mounts which require additional grinding due to the larger sway bar on the cars after 2010. Otherwise they'd already be on the car. Tires are at the warning mark but I'm certain that they have 30 miles and three passes left in them.

    So, is anyone interested in meeting up before going in? I will be staying at in-laws nearby. We could meet where 37 and I-70 connect OR we could meet near Lancaster and travel up 37 together Saturday. I did get some information on cost.

    If you plan on going up Friday night and registering and going through tech then it will cost $125. If you show up Saturday morning and go through tech it will cost $100. Don't ask me why, but she said if you go Friday you can make passes Friday and also make passes Saturday morning first thing while everyone else is busy registering and going through tech. I may very well go up Friday to register. She also stated that true street will be parked in a designated area. I plan on calling the track today and getting information on what gate to access for entering.

    I had planned on making this one, but im still getting mine back together. I'm finally fixing the frame rust mine has, it sucks! I've ran in the bowling green event for the past 6 years now, and I can tell you, true street is a blast!! Hoping mine's together for bowling green this year.

    This will be my first one. Went to Norwalk in 97 or 98. Saw Brandon Switzer, Les Baer, Kenny Markwich, and a bunch of other big name guys back then. Went to Trails a few times later. Got to watch Jon Huber make passes in his 4 banger turbo. Was a blast!

    It is a one day event for the running, however without paying out any more you automatically can run in the bracket class on Sunday without paying according to that gal I talked to who heads up the event out in California. I was hoping we could possibly meet somewhere near I70 and the HWY 37 exit 126. Only thing I see right off the exit going towards US 40 national road, is a Pilot Truck stop, a Dairy Queen and a Subway. So if anyone would like to meet there at a set time that Saturday morning just so we can stay together as a group when we enter holler. I'm game for it.

    I'm gonna roll out around 530 6 am Saturday morning, I'm down for meeting up. I think true street gets a time trial or 2 in the morning before the actual cruise.
