The people who ran it gave priority to the more serious cars while the street cars just had to wait. We sat in the staging lanes for forever as we saw the same Camaro in the "slicks" lane get 3 or 4 passes. After our first run, we just went home.. kinda left a sour taste in my mouth for that place.


When the Street lane finally started moving, there was this one asshat in an eclipse who was revving the **** out of his car when he got up to the tree. He was revving so much that he blew something and sprayed oil everywhere, then had the balls to Launch and spray it all the way down the track.. That took another hour for them to clean up.
Drag racing sucks, go turn :D

Re: The Undead Gateway Thread

I need an oil leak fixed too. I noticed it on Wed, but it got really bad over the weekend. Stupid Lincoln.

Re: The Undead Gateway Thread

Don't you cuss that brand! I LOVE my Lincoln - I can't wait to get a tune on it, but just the intake and exhaust have been sweet.

I'm not cursing the brand, just my car. From the look of it, this was the same leak I had fixed about a year ago. It's a cheap gasket, but it is easily damaged when it is installed and you have to drain the oil and coolant to change it out so it is kind of a pain. Watching smoke come out from under your hood while stopped isn't exactly a confidence inspiring sight.

Re: The Undead Gateway Thread

Oh, alright.

I think you should just upgrade and get an LS.
