    Never had a problem with that....invest in a premium Auto Club Membership....one long distance tow and your already way ahead of the game.

    60k LS F Bodies that are mostly stock don't break.

    My 99 TA had 110m on it when I got it and 125m when I sold it and saw mostly track duty running 13.5 when I got it and 12.2 when I sold it.

    I did a triple disc 3600 converter with over 115 miles and made over 300 passes without breaking it

    NMCA used to run at Mid Michigan. 200+mph cars with that tiny shutdown area! It's sketchy slowing down a 100mph car there!

    I think we did a Martin rental for Motown like 15 years ago. That place was pretty awesome. I remember Don Trandell doing wheelies in the pits with his crazy golf cart...

    I go to Martin every year for the Super Sled Shootout and it's a blast. Besides the sleds and bikes it's regular testing on Friday night so I take the car along and make a few passes. Great party Saturday night too. Jay and his crew to a great job and it is a first class facility. Keep in mind if all goes well Drag Week starts and ends there on Sept 14th & 18th.

    Going to make every effort to get to the NMRA/NMCA event and run the True Street class. Camp in the pits all weekend and play with the car on Saturday and watch some really good racing. Sounds like fun.

    I Drag Race Because It's Fun, Not Because I'm Good At It.

    Yes, that was a great rental day with the bracket and run what you brung classes. The TA made 10 hot lap passes with Phil and I rotating in the 10.1-10.2s range. I think there was one race with someone asleep at the tree too.

    Seems to me I remember a beater race involving an escort and another car too.
