Oct 17 Byron Drags
Here's a note from the Sunburst Corvette Club. We're invited for a final year end drag fest. Let me know because we'll need a count .
Hi Dominic We would welcome any Corvettes your group would like to bring. Please let me know how many participants you expect so we can alert the dragstrip. That is how they decide how many staging lanes we get. Also, if we have more than 8 cars (and I am pretty sure we will) they provide a couple of trophies for 1st and 2nd place cars. We run straight brackets, time runs in the a.m. and eliminations after lunch. We will set up on the grass at the north side of the track about 9am. Usually we bring snacks to share and provide our own lunches. Let me know if there is anything else I can help you with, and be sure when you check in that you tell them you are with Sunburst so they give you the right numbers. I am attaching our flyer so you can see all the information. See you there! Teresa |

Sounds like fun! Hope to see the "BIG GUNS" of the FBI come out for a change!

Re: Oct 17 Byron Drags
I'd like to get back to Sunburst CC and give them a count of how many of us will show up next Saturday. So far looks like 3 and PW observing.
Anyone else? Probably one of the last opportunities for the year to blow the carbon out? Pete, Al, Marc, Bob? |

Re: Oct 17 Byron Drags
The weather doesn't look good for tomorrow. This is a Corvette event and since we didn't make it to 41, let's do the last event for the year. For me, I'd like to see if there is consistency between tracks. My last times, Lgaff and Ccmano's times were from GLD not Byron. Saturday looks like it will be a nice day for good air. Come on!

Re: Oct 17 Byron Drags
I plan to be there, even if only for moral support and perhaps a little "filming"!.
I can't put into words the disappointment I feel over missing most of the season for one reason or another. It just hasn't been a good year for my "lil red Corvette". So! in lieu of racing myself, I'm hoping Pete and the "Big Guns" will come and we can witness the FBI putting the fear of LOTUS in the hearts and minds of C5 & 6 drivers!) Sounds like fun!! P.
