As always I try to make it enjoyable for everyone in attendance, fans and racers alike. Having said that.......

DON'T:

* DON'T PM me and ask me to "let you run" if you know your car is not safety legal.
*DON'T bring your car if it runs 5's and doesn't have a cage (you know who you are, there's more than one of you)
*DON'T show up without a helmet, fire jacket etc.
*DON'T Drive through the water if you have "big" street tires on the front.
*DON'T do burnouts, donuts, or speed in the pits. When you line up on the track - THAT is when you do the burnouts, speed and obviously NO DONUTS (we aren't at the dirt track ya know).
*If you suspect you've broken something -

<marquee>DON'T DRIVE ALL THE WAY DOWN THE TRACK, PULL OVER AND CHECK IT OUT!</marquee>
__________________

DO:

*DO have fun
*DO take lots of pictures
*DO get in the stands when I call everyone up there - We have special EVENT T-SHIRTS for the cruise.

I am sure I am forgetting something, but I'll ad it as we get close to the cruise!

How about:
DO pull over if you break.
DON'T take it personal when you get pushed off the track.

I will try and have mine out too. Fuck it if I can't run mine I might as well allow someone else to run all out.

Puddles are easier and faster to clean up than trails of oil and water the entire length of the track. Fucking stop if you break something dipshits................ :rolleyes:

Steve - PM returned! Thanks!

Yes, Grape and Luke hit a very valid point -

If you are suspecting you have broken something pull over and check it out - DON'T DRIVE ALL THE WAY DOWN THE TRACK!

I can't figure out why people drive their front tires through the water pit any way. :confused: I drive around and back into the water pit.


Donuts??? Are you serious? This actually has to be said? :confused: What dumbass would do something like that? (Never seen it done at the track)

It happened at the last cruise. There was also someone in a black cobra doing a burnout on the side road next to the staging lanes.

Get a fire extinguisher for your car. My friend's Camaro burned at Kennedale last night. He was stuck at the end of the track without an extinguisher and a burning car. Had to wait for the fire department to come and put it out.

Sorry to hear about your friends car, was it a race car, street car? This is the same reason I have an onboard firesystem on my car!

I seem to remember it was a '99-'04 body, convertable, may or may not have been a convertable though. Black/Black/Black in color.

Was that you? :confused:

I can second Jose on this. I know Jose & he doesn't even speed on the street in his car. He may as well be a old man the way he drives. :D

It was a maroon 69 Camaro, pro-touring style. I have not seen it yet but I hear it is pretty much totalled.

Whenever my car gets track ready it will have a fire system also.
