Well when I get on grid I usually go slow the first run and pick up the pace the second and third time around 4th time I just go all out if I didn't get any good times haha, and are you going with street tires or do you have some slicks? (it makes a world of a difference) I'd recommend going with 1/4 or 1/2 a tank of gas (same thing you'd do at the race track) throw some premix in there if you got it...keep an eye on your temps and you should be ok...make sure you got some distance from people who got slicks on their cars (like right before you pull up to do your run, the person before you might throw some rocks your way if your too close)...make sure you got all your lug nuts (no broken studs or missing lug nuts...you dont wanna end up like that red fd haha)

but the real reason why his wheels feel off was cuz of not using the correct sized lug nuts? or something

if your lucky this will happen haha

The date is set for Saturday the 18th.
Were going to meet at the gas station I posted earlier on in the thread on page 4.

Rspeed9i6 will be making a new thread soon with all of the info.

The only thing's not completely planned yet are the length of the run and the destination point with a place to eat, but we will have that info this friday when we run up there to check it all out.
