It'll be good to meet ya.

I think the majority of us will be there between 6:00 and 7:00. I'll get with my buddy in here who lives in SA and see what he is doing. AFAIK, meet at the track.

Last call.. don't forget long pants, shoes (no sandals), helmet if you have one, and an empty tank! Bring cash to get in and cash if you are buying fuel there.

You guys think it would be smart to run the car with only 500 miles on it?

I'm sure your car will be fine. It's not recommended of course, but I've seen fresh motors on the dyno. This isn't a 4-bolt small block, the tolerances are a lot more precise and the concept of seating rings is pretty much gone. Many people on here have thrown the break-in process out the window and had no issues.

Just make sure you have oil since you're probably still in the burning stage a little.

Sounds like the Mustang guys I have gone with before.
"Oh yes we are 100% stock..."
Wait what tires are those, and where is the back seat, and why is there a parachute on the rear? (Ok the last one I made up )

Well i think my best of the night was a 13.2 with an average of 14.2 hahaha. Track officials said water was seeping up through the track because of all the rain San Antonio previous had. Best 60ft was a 2.2 - barf.
