Just checked their website, no T&T on Sunday, saturday the 20th is also Buick Day I think so if they have a big turnout we're not gonna have much opportunity to get runs in.... On saturday the 27th is only T&T (no car clubs), i think this would be a better day to go...

If you guys plan on comming to St.Thomas to run the best night to be here is on Fridays. Its only $15 to run and you can run all night.. You can run in the "Test and tune" but its more expensive, for 15 on a Friday night you can run in the street legals from 6-10pm. Its a good deal and you can easily run more than 10 times.. Its good fun.

You basically just pay to run and get timed. The beauty of it though is that you are really not even racing against anyone. You are just trying to get timed, make changes to you car and get timed again. If you times go down your 'tuning' is working...you get it. So you are Testing and Tuning trying to set your car up to perform its best

Now, if you have nothing on your car that can be changed, you are just our there running and having fun. But you can always change something, weight, tire pressure, launch technique, shift points, etc.

This is for the sat the 27th - Friday's no good for most people man, eveyrbody's got work and some have summer school too, like last time we'll meet at yorkdale probably and leave in the morning (EARLY), make a pit stop for gas and breakfast, then straight to St. Thomas.

I made you look silly last time, rememebr Eman? HAHAH!!!

here's the post event thread for our drag day last year

http://www.torontocivics.com/cgi/ult...c&f=2&t=000204

It's all about the fun, even guys running 18's had a blast... so don't worry if you have a slow car... everybody here has a slow car.
