The World's 2nd Fastest 20B - The New Ian Racing will be in attendance racing.
The World's Fastest 13B - El Yankee will be in attendance racing.

Going to be a lot of fast racing going on. Along with the return after many years of the PRO RWD Heads Up Class in addition to the Quick 32 Bracket Class.

There were a couple low 7 to 6 second passes last night by the rotaries. El Yankee ran a 6.95.

Last night was definitely owned by the 2JZ's though. El Humilde ran a new personnal best of 6.68 @ 209mph with only the second pass off the container. Pepe Loco ran a new personnal best of 6.53 @ 209mph on the very first pass with his new turbo set-up.

Looks like the return of the PRO RWD Heads Up Class is going to be very very interesting.

Some pics from Today

The weather was great today, but the racing kinda sucked (a lot of breakage and track clean up) so I found myself at the car show on more than one occasion. Here are a few pics of what an old school rotor head found appealing....sorry they are just crappy cell phone pics, but I forgot to charge the camera last night so...yeah...

Check out the video of the Final Round in the PRO RWD Heads Up Class. They aren't rotary powered, but it was a great match up none the less.

Those have to be coil overs your car was on...so clean...from every angle. Can't beat the 215-50's either. That race was great too.
