i have in the past ran at these rentals, as a rule they do a good job prepping the track, and for those wondering what you can run, anything pretty much goes.
: Hopefully it is on the day of the event if we
: can meet the 75 minimum required. Right now
: it sits at 59 entries, but the person
: updating the list may not be doing so on
: every pre-entry paid till he has a few to
: update.
:
: They may not be LACR, but they are not
: Famoso by any stretch and unless they really
: cleaned their act, I'll suspect minimal prep
: from their previous actions when I was
: personally there.
:
: Be more then happy to say nice things if it
: was true for me, but racing on Drag Radials,
: it requires some good prep.

: The track is good - this isn't LACR - I saw
: J.
: Payne make a couple of mid 5 second passes
: at over 250mph on a test day in his alcohol
: funny car - Low six second PSCA pro street
: class door slammers , fast cars on 10 inch
: tires , those too . Bring a car that is not
: set up right and you won't get down any
: track . Know when to say when!

: Well, if you have any buddies that work at
: Fontana, maybe you can ask them or influence
: them to prep it before ur run?
:
: but pls tell me so that I can follow ur foot
: print
:
: Seriously, Fontana has seen wrecks on 90% of
: their private events. The list does not show
: us what tires they run on, but the higher
: priced cars usually mean newbies and newbies
: that dont know when to lift and up kissing
: the guard rail.
:
: We have seen a few Vipers with newbie
: drivers on OEM tires mess up their cars.
:
: In short...not an event for OEM tires. Back
: in 05, my Mach1 would just spin all the way
: down the strip on OEM Tires and that is
: amazing since I could not do that at LACR.

: I run the PSCA and run 8.50s at Fontana. I
: was
: just curious if they will prep it the same
: as a PSCA event.

: You may have way to much HP for their track
: if
: you are running that fast with a 10"
: slick.
:
: Fontana has changed management recently and
: personally, I have not been to their new
: strip layout and nor seen any action to make
: any sort of statement. Some of our local
: members run their PSCA events and they do
: not complain about the prep.
:
: Fastest id ever seen on a private event was
: 9.0's.

: Do they prep the track well enough to hold
: an
: 8.50 car on a 10" slick?

: Ok, so from what I understand it is $100.00
: per driver... Yes???? Yes??? You are looking
: for a commitment, are you not? Well, I'm
: there.. I'll be comming up from Malibu..

: Bill, the navigation tool for ur mouse
: should be on the top right side of ur
: monitor under SIGN UP NOW.
:
: It will lead you into a new page with all
: the details and a PayPal Botton.
:
: So far there is a total of 4 LACR regulars
: going and wish we had more. If they continue
: like they have been before, we should all
: get a free meal (drivers only). Not the best
: food but it is food.
:
: 25 more to meet the minimum...hope to see u
: there.
