I attended this event last year and all I can say was that it was the BEST event I've ever been to. The cars there are ridiculous and being able to see them battle it out right in front of your eyes down the runaway is nothing short of amazing....200+mph

I have been looking forward to this since I left the event last year. I HIGHLY encourage everyone to attend....if not to actually race, then to spectate. There is LOTS of parking room along all the hangers and I think it would be pretty cool to see the Chicago 7s maybe have a meet and cruise out there together and then kick back and enjoy the sounds.

Most of us should have our setups finished/tuned by that point so I think it's a worthwhile idea.

Only picture I took from the event

I'm interested in going. What would make it cooler is an air show at the same time.

So for any of you that missed it, last hour yesterday was pretty intense. Ams was holding the record all weekend at 212.0. There was a blue viper tt, shop was called fmoto if I'm not mistaken that ran a 212.06. Ams came back put and ran a 213.06, but they blew the head gaskets from what I overheard. Car was towed back into the "pits", viper came back and ran a 213.06... Ya you read that correctly. Tech support at the traps confirmed both cars ran 213.0682, no glitches in the system. The viper only had 15 min to go back and get ready for the last run of the day to take the win, at 5:55 they made their final pass of 209. Ams never made It back out in time and it ended up in a tie for fastest speed.

Viper also won fastest rwd and fastest manual.

Pretty exciting event since it was my first time to be watching. Will definitely be going back in october.
