I gues Irwindale is going 1/4 mile too. That's cool because it is a better location (atmospherically and proximity to me), the peopel who show up on TnT are pretty serious and they are open on Thursday nights, so it's not an all day affair, just an after work thing every once in a while. I've had more fun there than at Fontana for the most part, and that was 1/8th vs. 1/4.

I've never been to Irwindale. If they go full 1/4 I might though. I use to go to LACR every Friday night for their grudge races back before they closed and I ran in a series there that was on Saturday. That was fun. It was a 12 second bracket so I would pull the pin for the secondaries and run off just the primaries. The Chevelle would still go under 12 seconds on just the primaries so I had to back off a little to keep from braking out.

I have to agree, Irwindale is more fun. It's at night when it's much cooler than Fontana, and you don't wait forever.
It would be awesome if Irwindale goes full 1/4 mile.

This is awesome, they've added TNT to Sundays following the Street Legals! Plus they're running them twice in some months. That should mean more runs on a given day. Too bad I probably won't have the Chevelle ready by the February dates but I'll do my best.

Including T&T a decent number of days, better than the old 7 or 9 days a year. I hate their tech, everything but a anal probe and still more track shutdowns then I ever experienced at Carlsbad, Brotherhood or LACR.
Never ran at Irwindale.

Their inspections are pretty anal. I understand the need to be safe, but a rectal exam isn't the only way to prove who I am!

So what is the difference between Street Legal and Test & Tune? Is T&T open to any car and street legal open to only street legal cars?
