New Jersey Turnpike North to Exit 8 to Route 33 East. Go eight miles to the Englishtown Exit. Take Route 527 North. Go through Englishtown. At the third light (Quick Chek on left) make a right onto Gordons Corner Road. Go 1/4 mile, make a left onto Pension Road. Go two miles, track entrance is on the right.

This is the way I go. The Holiday Inn is right off the turnpike on the right. Just as soon as you get off the ramp onto 33, it's there.

There is "Mom's Diner" right across the street, never ate there, but it's there.

There are no exits on 33, you follow down past a few farms and there will be a small brown sign that says something about Quail Scout camp. Go thru the light and take the jughandle to get onto 527-A, you know a New Jersey Left, Follow that down to Iron Ore Road and turn right. After a few farms, a road will fork off, take that (can't remember the name) It will dead end into Main Street. (You'll pass the Englishtown fire station) turn left and follow down thru town. You'll come up to Quik Check, this light is 22, turn right and at the next street, turn left (Pension Road) go down about 2 to 5 miles. Turn into the track at the main enterance

excellent. looks like my injectors won't be here in time for install, but i may go ahead and put the car on another dyno and possibly replace the o2 sensor or go with a wideband set up, still not sure and will depend on what my shop has time to do on friday.

Just spoke to Jeannie over at the track.

The car show will just be a Top 10 for Olds trophies, no separate classes for years/models.

The racing will be split between Olds radial/DOT tire class and Olds slicks class.

SEE YOU THERE!!!!

[Redog]

I'd be upset too.

I took a day off of work to go, I can reverse it if I know it's going to rain beforehand

Just looked at the weather and they are calling 84*, sunny, and less humid

I never go but the weather channel's website, they are always wrong.

This is the site the track uses:

weather might hold out after all.

It's a light rain here right now, but I'm still going out to switch my wheels.

I don't run slicks, but I'm not doing burnouts with tires that where $170 a piece.

I bought Albino's wheels a few years ago at ASS

[jackal2000]

i got an oil change today and just dropped some iridium plugs. going to do some scans on the way up there tonight and play with my timing.
