So far we have 3 E46's, 2 Civics, and a '69 Camaro committed to attend.

1 M Coupe and a few spectators are on the "maybe" list.

We'll also have someone there who can take photos or video of our antics.

Want a picture of your car doing a smokey burnout? Or a blistering 1/4 mile?

Wow, this sounds like fun. I didn't know people came so close to where I live. I live about 15 minutes from Union Grove. Too bad my bimmer is in the shop. Maybe I can talk my brother into going and racing. He has a heavily modded s4. If I come is there a place to just spectate? I've been by there a bunch just never been in.

Yes, there are bleachers for spectators. You can also walk around in the pits and the staging area. Admission is $12 for spectators.

I just double-checked the times and racing only lasts until 10pm, not 11. Bastards changed their hours for September and October...

I'll be there by 6pm.

Everyone. I have an Entertainment coupon that is a 2 for 1 - buy one admission, get one free.

A neighbor of mine may be going and I promised him part of the coupon. If someone else is interested, please let me know (cell: 214-394-6680). I will be contacting the neighbor tonight.

Awesome!

Looks like we might have about 10 cars there! Weather's supposed to be nice and cool.

Also, some pro-street guys I'm acquainted with are renting the track in the afternoon, before fun racing, and they are paying to have the track properly prepped. So hopefully it will still be nice and sticky when it's our turn.

Let's try and grab an area of the pits for our BMW group and friends - maybe in the grassy area behind the gas hut?

Looks like there may also be an NSX in attendance as well.

Weather is PERFECT!
