For all those racing tonight.... We will have a section alongside the fence as before BUT I've spoken with John the Tech, he will come to us and tech the cars in place if we have enough ready to go. This means no waiting in line

updated info for tonight...

racers...

the gates are officially open and you can purchase your ticket to race for tonights street legals.

tech for street legals starts at approx 430pm.

we have a space reserved at the 1/8th mile against the fence for all vws!!

spectators with vws that aren't racing...

there is reserved parking for vws just after the main entrance booth and to the right (barrels with signs saying "vw show & shine").

the main pit area is full due to a major all weekend event and only those racing will be able to park in the pits!

see you all soon and lets have some fun!!

I really enjoyed racing last night!!

With first Brian, and then Jim, pulling me along in the other lane, I was able to get three races in before the rain came.

Knocked my best ET down to 12.658 seconds and also get a new top-end speed 106.44 MPH.

It was also great to see so many of you again!

What a blast. All three reaction times were under 1 sec. this year. woot woot.

Head up for my first pass and who do I get paired with but "The Wok". When I realize I'm racing Jim I look over and he starts taunting me with hand gestures from behind his race helmet. Well f#&k that! It's on! We stage. Light goes green and for a second I think "I've got him" but.... he drove around me at the bottom end.

Wok : 10.763 - 132.68mph
Me : 21.893 - 58.87mph

Jim, your exhaust smelled kind of funny. You might want to look into that.

Sorry, I missed the presentation...I had a ticket to watch the Whitecaps-LA Galaxy game at BC Place.  I got stuck in construction traffic on the way back, and Bruce and few others were the only ones still around late.

Geoff gave me the "long distance" award at the show yesterday...many thanks!!!  I love racing at Mission and the whole weekend is a great vacation.  I especially like the new show location, and will probably bring my wife next year, as she'll enjoy a walk on the harbour pathway, etc.

Thanks again, everyone!

There was a brief comment on another forum, but no details.  Did Paradise Motorsports race at the GCVWS?  I was at the track very early, but don't remember seeing any Paradise cars...
