Well I finally have my car running great and I'm pumped to run at turbopalooza. At work I have to request time off with a lot of advance notice. So the sooner I can figure out the date and time the more likely I will be able to come down and race!

well its 2nd only to the annual SDAC car show!! The OVC puts on the thing, and a bunch us get together at a test n tune at a drag strip in Cincinatti (either Edgewater or Tri-State) for a day of racing. Once we even scheduled a dyno day the day before! Its ALWAYS a good time!

they get people from all over for the day, so don't miss out!!!!!!

always a blast even if you don't take the car on the track. i have been unable to attend for a couple years now because of school engagements, but I will be there in full force this year. project laser will be running even if only on a conservative set up, and if i can find a friend whos willing, ill have the skunk there as well. (depends on what all is going on that week) but no matter what the laser will be there. as amatter of fact its gettin the final touches at the mechanics shop this week. everyone who can should make the trip. its always a good full day of fun!

Turbopalooza is at Edgewater. The event at TriState is the Spring Fling. Turbopalooza is always the 1st Saturday in November (weather permitting) and Spring Fling is usually the Saturday after Easter or so. (Spring Fling is not as rigid in the schedule.)

The track opens at about 1pm and goes to about 5 or 6pm. Then we usually head over to Ken's place and hang out until everyone either goes home and collapses! We'll have to check with Ken if that is indeed the plan again though.

it's literally right across the street, behind the Angilo's. So if anyone breaks anything (hopefully not, but hey...) my place is open, and we have just about anything you need. from airtools to a tire machine etc.
