We are less than a week away. I'm going to try to keep this thread on the 1st page until Saturday morning so that we can set any last minute plans.
First off... I've got a list of 12-13 people who have expressed interest in attending. Now that it is in a few days, let's get some confirmation of who is in and out. If you're on the list, please just let me know if you are attending, or if you're not on the list but you want to be, let me know that too!

I will as soon as I know who all is planning on attending from down this way. No point in a caravan if everyone bails out on the meet. Figure we'll meet up in a parking lot close to the interstate, about 2hrs before the meet in Richmond and then caravan up. I just made the drive to Richmond last week and it takes about 1:30 give or take a few mins.

Not sure, but probably 18. Either way, we'll decide at lunch how many people want to run their cars at the strip. I have it at the end as an option for those who are interested. Again, if nobody seems interested in running their cars then we can always skip that portion of the meet.

For those interested in drag racing, there are a few rules:
-$25 for open test and tune (unlimited number of runs during the 11:00-4:00 time slot).
-Your car must pass tech inspection (that will be no problem for any of our cars, no matter what mods you have)
-You must wear a helmet if you run faster than 14.000. This goes for passengers in your car as well. Pretty much any DOT approved helmet will do. I used to wear a motorcycle helmet back when I went to the drag strip with other cars.
-You must also wear long pants and shoes... no flip flops or shorts
Most of the time they'll let you run once if you honestly don't know how fast you're going to go... but if you end up running faster than a 14.00 (and you will) they'll warn you that another run that fast without a helmet will get you kicked out.
