The racing season at Infineon Raceway is starting up soon. There will be drags almost every Wednesday with a select amount of weekends for bracket drags.. There will also be a Mopar only event in early June. Feel free to suggest anything else like a Jeeps and Coffee meet or whatever...

There will be plenty of opportunities to meet up and at one of the events, hopefully we can get some numbers at one of many: http://infineonraceway.com/schedule/dragstrip_schedule/

GC. more than likely i won't be racing, but am looking forward to still meeting up with you guys...maybe go for a ride or two in Paul's rig. ;)

This is great to see some people that might actually make it! If some people are busy this month.. we should plan something for May. There are weekend bracket drags with trophy class.. I usually go up on Wednesday night so I don't know much about the weekend events. If that doesn't work out.. we should plan for the 6th. It'd be great to meet a lot of you, I'm racking up the miles on my 2007 and sooner than later I'm going to get into a '08. There aren't many SRTs for sale in NorCal, most of them are down south :mad:

Add your SN to the list :)

Ill be at sears point tomm. My wifes stock trailblazer ss ran 13.3@103.97 last time i was there. we put in a converter and should be in the high 12s everything else stock see you there

Look for a black 5.7L - I'll see you tomorrow! Do you put the smaller tires on to mess with the computer to achieve that 13.3?

My buddy Rich and I at LXforums are trying to get as many modern mopars as possible at the Mopar Day on 6/6/09. We've got about 20+ LX cars (300s,Chargers, Magnums and Challengers) planning to come. If we can get 32 cars we can have our own drag racing class.

Anyways I hope you guys can make it. Here is a link to the flyer. Mopar car show and all-day drag racing.

I know Rich.. with the Charger, right? He's cool as hell and always tinkering with his Diablo LOL

So if you get 32 cars, would the Jeep be included in the modern mopar class? If so add me to the list but in the mean time.. add yourself to the list I have on this thread :)

That's going to be ridiculous. FYI you can't run in the Street class if you're running lower than 11.5's.. I hope you don't run Street :D Good luck and I'm looking forward to seeing this madness.

Rich

Rich, I was asking about the car show not the actual drag racing. Who knows, maybe someone wanted to enter.

I don't think there is going to be a Jeep only bracket class.. that's why I was suggesting incorporating a few Jeeps onto that LX list and make it a Modern Mopar category instead :)
