how to start
#2
The next event is February 9th(I think) at the Pungo feild. There will be a thread started soon, probably this weekend, giving the link for pre-registration. Go ahead and pre-register for the event preferabley with a number 16 and up so you can watch at least the first heat (15 car heats).
Then when the 9th comes, just get there around 8:30, bring a chair and a lunch and don't forget to increase your tire pressure. Take all loose items out of your car including front floor mats and get your car tech inspected and oh pay the $20.
Feel free to ask anyone for tips at the event and everyone is pretty freindly and willing to help. I think that covers most of it. If you have any other questions just ask!

seriously you just gotta come out... dress warmly if it is cold because it gets chilly out there. There may be ufn runs which are held at the end of the days and those are just runs for fun but they cost money so bring like 20 for fee, 5 for fun runs, 10 for food, and change to get tire pressures and you should be completely set.

You realy don't need a fast car to compete. It's mostly about driver skill and how well you car handles. Remember that you be put in a specific car class according to your mods and car type.
Really a good set of tires will help you out more than a new engine.

yes, you would be running w/ a lightweight, stripped BMW 325, w/ a new M3 motor (350 hp), on street tires, a tuned suspension, and proabably the best driver you can get for it. so if you're worried about be competitive, after the motor swap, you'll need a lot more to be. if you're just worried about having fun w/ your car, then the more power the better
