Anyone going to the Q this Friday and next?

I may bring a rented Lamborghini Gallardo to the Q. I might have a friend race it. Otherwise it will just sit. I wouldn't think the Gallardos are all that fast for the power they make. Or maybe nobody ever pushes them on the launch. They have 500hp and squeeze high to mid 12's I believe. Ofcourse this is more then my old N/A 89GXL with 160rwp so Im not complaining.

I tried renting a Diablo but found only one shop that sells them and was overpriced

It would be awsome to see some bad *** 7s out there who can possibly video tape some races.

i might show, but i'm pretty sure there's something wrong with my secondary injectors. so i'll just be looking on from the backround.

lol

Yes I brought the red FC down a long time ago in El Paso. Supposedly the guy I sold it to is still beating on it with no problems. I remember your white FD. It's very nice. To bad it's acting funny but I had to laugh...Everybodies 7's are broken.

I will be driving a Lotus Elise in the mean time unless someone wants to loan me there 3rd gen RX7??? I figure I can save a few bucks if I borrow a car rather then rent one. I might beat on it though.

I should be there on the 7th with my LS1/FC shooting for a 6 second slip. I tried to make it to last nights race but the tech line was so messed up that I couldn't make it in to race.

Speedmachine was supposed to bring their white drag car but it didn't show. I wanted to set up a race with it.

Hey

The Q is Qualcolm stadium on friars rd. Used to be called Jack Murphy Stadium.

I saw the guy who brought the rented 360 modena. Costed $3000/day. He got beat by everything but a domestic in a 4 lane race. I got it on video.

Anyways I won't be going. Vacation request was turned down due to a lack of staff. I'll be back down in June. Hopefully they will be racing then.
