Gary,
According to
http://www.californiaspeedway.com/track/CaliforniaDragway2005Schedule.jsp
...it appears that gates open at 8AM so figure on racing starting at 9AM or so. I hope the weather is like today's-- clear and cold!
Phil: I'll be making a trip to McKenzie's Performance in Anaheim this morning to pick up some C16 in anticipation of next weekend. I also need to get a new helmet sometime between now and then as mine is out of date as of 2005.
Morgan
'87 GN; it goes ok

If you mean own as in currently own, I currently own a Z06, a '87 Turbo-t, & a Honda CBR1100XX that I don't ride. But I am currently looking for a another pristine low mileage '87 Turbo-T and then the bike will disappear and probably the Z06 also.
If you mean I had, as in previously owned & the one that I own now. I have owned 1 '86 T-Type, an '87 Grand National, and 2 previous '87 Turbo-t's, and the '87 Turbo-t that I currently own.
Making a total of 5 GN/T-Type/Turbo-T's. I don't race them because I don't want any of you guys to see a 16 sec pass in a low 12 sec car, as in the case of the Z06, or a high 15 or low 16 sec pass in a high 13 or low 14 sec car. But I do like to come out and support the Buicks, and watch them also, and also talk to everybody involved in the Buick clan. Not any real sense in abusing, or racing a prety much bone stock car, as in the case of my '87 Turbo. It's not like we don't know what a bone stock Turbo-T will do.

Nothing personal here, but you are the wrong sex and way too old to be in my will. And, come to think about it: I lied, but not intentionally, I don't own the Z06 free and clear yet, as I have 6 more payments left on it.
More FYI...
Snell Certifies helmets every five years. They figure that in five years your helmet has begun to disintegrate, as it were. The glue holding the inner lining is failing and blah, blah, blah....
If you could borrow someone's SA2000 to get you through tech, that maybe the answer until October. But then again sharing a helmet can be like sharing underwear
SA90? Wow!

Kevin,
I appreciate the offer, but my intent is to arrive prior to the gates opening at 8AM so I'll likely leave Yorba Linda at 7AM. I think Neal plans on doing the same by leaving San Diego at "0-Dark:30" Saturday morning and driving straight to the track. I like getting through tech as quick as possible, and being toward the head of the tech line helps.
Speaking of which, do you plan on running on Saturday?

Hey Phil,
This is Sean, I'm Brian's brother and I work at OCTFCU. We just moved down Euclid a mile down to about the 5. The official cross streets are Euclid and Crescent.
Morgan,
How's everything going, how are Tracer and Kathy? Did you have the new baby yet? Hopefully we'll see you out at the track, it's been too long.
