We have the Triad Test n Tune this Sunday at LJVM Coliseum in Winston-Salem, NC. We will most likely have a caravan leaving the McDonald's at exit 49 off I-85 in Concord early about 7ish. If you pay for the test n tune, your Triad membership is free for the year. events.auto-x.com/event/detail/82/ |

Danville is a much better site. I would choose Triad EVERY time! I agree on both, but the site wins this one for me, especially since it'll be unavailable for a while. |

The one thing about Danville: I was picking burrs out of my shoes / pants / ears / armpits for like 3 weeks afterwards.

I am trying to sort out the car but I should be there. Ingram, SOLD! I'm always game for free food lol. I can use the input from those that have ran Tang in the past. Seat time is seat time regardless of site. I'll go for more seat time, especially trying to dial in a setup. The people are awesome too  I'm assume we will caravan from our usual place. What time? |

anybody got a vid of the track at LVJM? I remember, from pre-stone age days, it was a pretty small site. But I just realized that Tarheel does split runs (also pre stone age). Trying to make the decision about switching or not....
thanks.

thank you, Cyndi! really good vids. The site seems better than I remembered - so worth a trip, I think. I have always disliked split runs, though I respect that each club has its own traditions.
see you all down there.
again, thanks for posting those.

Good time today! Tons of runs plus all the ones that Licursi and Casino put on my car, lol. Thanks for everyone's help today, I feel like I learned a good deal and feel more comfortable with my car's setup. And thanks Kurt for the rides in the Lotus, another car that was quite the sleeper today along with mine.
