Dont let a stock car or the fact you may have never put your car on the track stop you from racing we have alot of base cars who have never run before coming. I will be giving a quick how to after the drivers meeting for those who have not run before.

2 days away see yall at the track or the pre party Friday at Buffalos Wild Wings in Valdosta.

Still on the fence- would love to run it, but dunno yet... only has 1200 mikes, lol"

I only had 3000 miles on my SS when I ran it down this track 10 times during C5FI! It was the first time I had ever been at a track and the first time I had the petal to the floor. Since then, I have become hooked. I have been back to SGMP with the SS again last November and took my 69 to Gulfport, MS Speedway last October.

I am bringing the 69 Saturday equipped with Nitto 555R DR's, subframe connectors and QA1 adustable shocks. If it hooks, I hope nothing breaks. It is a long and expensive tow home.

I've never raced anything- hell, I've never owned anything above a V6 before...very, very tempting... but I think id have to shoot myself if I got paired up to a Mustang and lost by sheer.inexperience alone!

Just in case, if you put a couple of 1 foot long 2x4 or 2x6 boards in the trunk you can drive the car onto those so you can clear the gfx. Used to do it all the time changing tires and loading & unloading race cars .
