I may join you ^^ depends what I have going on this weekend. I have always wanted to go to the track, I'm just scared of breaking something. How many people do you think will be there? How much is it to enter? What time do you wanna meet there?

I definitely recommend giving it a shot...esp seeing from the mountain cruise, you've already got the burnout down Like John said, there's always a risk of breaking something, but that same risk goes for the spirited driving on the street. This just allows for a controlled environment with some numbers to add to it! I've gone to the track 4 times now this year...it's addictive! I don't think you'll have any problems getting into the 13s with that car (bring a helmet just in case you do get into the 13s). My lil old GT is creeping closer and closer to the 12s

I'm not sure how many people will be there. I've never gone to a TnT at Mason Dixon. I've only gone to the track rentals there that the NVMC puts on a few times a year. There's usually a good crowd showing up there for TnT after the rental so I would imagine quite a few cars show up. The website says it's $30 for the TnT. I would say we can meet at Mt. Airy around 930-945am. Takes about 45 min from there to get to Boonsboro. Gates open at 11am but I'm not sure how the line is getting in. I want to make sure I have space and time to get my DRs put on.

Anyone that's been to a TnT at MD have any insight on what to expect as far as the crowd and number of runs we should be able to get in?

The crowd varies Bronson but I wouldn't let that deter you. If the weather holds it should be spectacular conditions for a day at the track.

I know...I was just kidding. Giving yall a hard time for singling out the s197

If it wasn't 7 hours away, I'd be all over it. I'd hate to break something that far away!!! Maybe next year...

Good luck!

Mason Dixon may have a bit of a crowd but I wouldn't let that deter you either. Looking like temps in the 60s...

So Bronson, the way something like the 197 shootout comes together is, one person starts it, and others join in, soooooooooooo, how about you STEP UP! and start the SN95 shootout, Hmmmmmmmmm.

And damn I want to go to the shootout, but I just cant afford to get a room, I still mite go.

Or just keep doin my thang until someone else decides to have a SN95 shootout! I'm lazy

Bronson, we can talk about alternative Mustang shootouts for the spring...

Wahoo! I'm in!

Well I have an appointment at 9:15 in sykesville to get my passport processed, not sure how long that's gonna take, but I can leave after that

Right on. I'll prolly leave my house around 930-945 to get to mt airy by 10-1015ish. I'll PM you my number. Gimme a call or shoot me a txt if you want to meet up and roll there together.

Ok, hopefully the passport application thing doesn't take long, I don't think it should. I can be to Mt. Airy in like 20-25 min. Just txt me where you wanna meet.

Had a great time today at the track. Met up with Hilstr and cruised on over to Mason Dixon. I got about 16 runs in before the rain came. It was pretty windy out there and it was a head wind so that made times kinda slow. Plus, I was having problems shifting again. I mainly concentrated on bettering my 60' times, which I did multiple times!!!

Never got any faster than 13.7s but I did knock my best 60' time to 1.72...wahoo!!! Doubt I'll be able to race any more this year, but I'm definitely looking forward to next year!

Congrats on bettering your 60'!

Had a great time Bronson, nice to meet you. You look exactly like your name hahahaha.

Had a blast there, my 1st time ever to the track. Never even been to spectate. I have some pictures and video I'll upload later, right now I'm gonna watch the game with some friends. Probably going on the cruise tomorrow. My best 60 foot was 2.078 on street tires hahah.

My first few passes I was shutting it down at the black signs that tell how fast you go cuz I thought that's where it ended. Learned a lot today, and Bronsons car looks sick with those 315's from the back :D

Oh and 13.53 was my best 1/4 mile time @ 104.42

Glad you had fun!

Here are the 2 pics I took:
