Whats up Mango, I think I'm gunna head over there tomorrow (Fri) on my way back from work, around 5:00. Have a few new mods planned and want to get a baseline for this season. If anyone else is game I heard there was a decent turn out of newer street cars, imports and such this past tues. PM me if anyone wants to meet up, or depending where people are coming from we can meet at my store on route 70 about 10min from track.

I just turned 1K miles on the truck so I still have a little more to go and then I'll make an Atco run. My dad lives in Berlin right near the old Rt73 circle so it's a close ride for me on the weekends. I work and live up in PA though so on friday nights I probably won't be down there until loser to 6:00.

Hey! I wish I could go, but I doubt I'd have enough time. I have to install my Borla S tonight and then spending time with the GF. We definetly need to set up a big get together for sometime in the summer.

Absolutely, I run with a few of those mustang guys, although these guys have been spanked enough times by the grocery getter to have some respect. Im heading out alone this time but any tues, thurs or Fri works fine with me.

May give it another go this Fri. Had to cut my last trip short after I shot off the hose going to my heater core and splashed antifreeze everywhere. Also gave me a heart attack for about 20min thinking everything from a blown head gasket to cracked head. At least it happened after my 12.94, but should have another tenth in her with better tuning and launch tecnique.

Anyway if anyone is down reply to this thread and maybe we can set something up. Also there were 3 Trailblazer SS's there, all decent mods, all in mid-low 13s. All very cool guys.

How far away is it from Harrisburg, PA?

Good question, I think its about 15min from Philadelphia, and Mango can confirm that, he knows the area a bit better then me. How far are you from Philly?

I can get to Philly in about 1.5 hours

The link isn't working to the track to pull Mapquest

My guess would be just under 2hrs door to door. Not too much interest it seems, I'm still looking to head over though, before the weather gets warm again. If your game let me know and we can either meet up somewhere before, or just meet at the track. It wasn't too busy last time, had 4 runs in by 8pm and I arrived at 6.

Is the track open up there this Sat.? If it rains down here I wunder if it'll be dry up there to race.

there's no way you're getting form Philly to atco in 15 minutes. Specially on a friday with work traffic. My parents live in jersey, my dad right near the track and from blue bell PA, to my dad's house is an hour and 15 minutes or so. I get on the PA turnpike at exit 339, which is the ft washtington exit for Rt309.

Yeah no WAY you can get from Philly to Atco Raceway in 15 minutes. The fastest route from Philly would be to take Rt. 42 toward Atlantic City, and continue following it until it turns into the Atlantic City Expressway, then it gets a little complicated from there....

You could also take Rt. 73 East (or south I think they call it) and follow that into Berlin, the track is not far from there. 73 to Jackson Road and voila, at the track!

Ok, was just a guess based on how long it takes me to get from Cherry hill to Atco. I take 73 east as well.

Mango did you go Fri? I was about to but thought the track wouldn't have enough time to get prepped. I'm prob going Tues night. There's an event this week so next open date won't be till next tues.

Mango, I'm there a lot. My buddy w/ a TBSS lives right there, literally a mile away, and just started workin there. We hang out down at his house quite a bit and BBQ and crap. If you wanna get together one day and BS or head to the track let me know. I have to get the new tune in the truck and head down again anyway so maybe we can exchange contact info and KIT about gettin down there.

Hey Tim, last time I was at the track there were 2 guys with TBSS's running, Blue and silver I think, one was AWD. I had the silver GC. Was that you guys?
