Did a little spirited drive to our cabin. Wish I had a DSLR.

About 115-120.

If you ever do roll racing at a track it is weird. You still trap really close to your trap from a dead stop. Only like 2-3mph faster from a roll

I havent been to a track either. Drag strips are ok. Can't really say you are missing out but it's fun to see what your car can do.

NMCA was in town this weekend. Man that was a lot of cars on the drag strip, had to be about 150-200 cars running. Then I counted about 35 cars that were drifting. We made it out Sat to watch and enjoy all the different classes going at it. I took about 400 pictures. Fun fun weekend. That was the first time I got to see a drifting competition in person. It was quite entertaining. There was no 'super pro' guys but I will give it to them, some of them really could throw their car around pretty good. Others, well, apparently were doing the best they could. There was one Camaro, one big old fat mustang and a vetter, along with many other smaller cars. The vette was pretty damn good, the Camaro, not so much (mustang driver was hit and miss).

I think one of the pro modified cars had "I beat racergirl" on their back window.

Oh, and I did see a white vette in the car show that had "UN1CORN" as their license plate. That was a bit unique.

Hope everyone else had a great weekend!!

It's something worth going to.

We'll for sure be in Chicago next month. I don't know if you travel to go to any of the other races or not, but you should go to that one. Its the NMCA/NMRA Superbowl race

I do travel around, but depends on work schedule and other travel plans that have already been made. Let me see when it is, as I already have plans to be in Traverse City, MI.
