Fontana 1st drag racing event this year is on feb. 15th. I plan on heading up there. Anyone else going?

I remember going last year and I met you briefly. Was a good time but only getting 3 passes after driving over 2 hours there (and 2 hours back) I think I'll be waiting till a day/event without so many cars. Plus I haven't ordered my drag radials yet..

EDIT: But you should come with a few of us (including Ryne and Texas) to The Red List event on the 28th up at Famoso. Going to be a blast.

I remember meeting you. Yea I can understand that. last time there was a holiday weekend there was probably 100 cars and we got about 20 passes in. Honestly DR there are dangerous with out subframe support since its really sticky... I have seen multiple cars break axles. I got bigger turbos and think I will be kicked off or have to run lower boost. I think it has died down since last year since it was the grand opening.

I am planning to go to the red list event but need to get a truck so I can tow my car up.

Yeah, on a day with fewer cars, it would be a lot of fun.

The red list event looks to be just that.
And I know, I'm going to take it easy, no hard launches. I'm just going to have fun, not trying to win anything obviously haha
I'll be on the look out, and I look forward to seeing you there.
