PLACE mine and domestic disturbance aka "kitch" shop in marion or random parking lot????

We should have it at mine and kitchs shop in marion because there is plenty of room, smooth street, place to hang out, place to work on the cars, tools, place to charge batteries, tune carbs, no chance of being kicked out ect.

also what do you guys think have 2 events?

event (1) 132 ft drag race

event (2) top speed run fastest car wins, basically still a drag race with 2 cars but not stop at 132 ft, if somebody has a radar gun that would be awesome

Have to get some kind of tree set up for sure. I was looking at timing systems the traxxes system would be ideal but i wondor if it works with any car, or just traxxes.

My understanding is it works with everything.g... too bad the dts-1 system isn't available yet either... not till June sometime... its just a laser timing system like a normal track... the only this.g is you have to buy the tqi system to get r/t mph and trap time... otherwise its just the tree, red light ability, and just shows who won.... which is good enough...
