None of the events are in California? I bet if there was an LA event it would be very successful.

the influence of tuning styles on the cars would be ALOT Better.. alot of those cars are butt ugly because of horrible selection in parts/taste .. ever watch those Nopi shows and see how crappy alot of those cars are. Its probably the lack of asian influence on the builds.

no events in cali yet because no drag strip openings now, hopefully 2011. also, not as many cali drag events because of the usual low turnout and attitude (see posts above). NHRA SC and NDRA both tried cali in the past, both failed. Hopefully IFO will succeed in cali if/when a track opening ever comes up.

The scene is not dying, the consistently growing IFO series is proof of that.

Yes, the IFO series ALWAYS pays out, 90+ events strong since 2001.

Just got back (left early the misses needed to be somewhere). It was ok... really small and not a whole lot to do other than look at a couple cars in the show or watch the drag event. I had a good time though. These two third gens were in the show and there was a second gen drag racing. These people on the forums?

Im going to set up a video later of the second gen racing.

nice. I got the video of you kicking the crap out of the EVO lol. I dont think I got any of the other ones though. Ill get it posted when I can. Its a little shacky towards the end when im trying to zoom in on the time boards. Had to move around some people so I could see it.

So hows that E-85 treating you.

Hey J-Rat. I cant get it cut down and converted so just PM me your email if you want it and Ill send it to you if I can. Same thing for anyone else who wants it. Hopefully its not to big to email since its an HD video but it isnt very long so I dont see why it would be.

That's because I'm an idiot lol. For some reason I thought you were one of the third gens. Did nt even think about looking at you sig I spent most of the time at the drag competition because I have a friend that was running in T/T. I was looking for you though since we talked together before. I was just pissed my 7 was stuck in the garage, stupid oil pan... Lol
