Not at this time, unless you are a guest of a driver.

onurleft is infamous around these parts
This is going to be close. If he really did trap 169 with an "easy launch" implying definitely more mph then he should have a good chance. The Nera trapped 177, but I have a feeling this new "R" version might have more in it?

Val, if you want to come down to spectate shoot me a PM and we can go from there (BlackHorseTurbo is right about the event not being generally open to the public at large).

Dimensions for pacing, acceleration, and braking zones have changed each event. For our first event we ran 300ft, 1,700ft, 2,000ft respectively. For the second we ran about 600ft, 1,500ft, 1,600 respectively. We change the dimensions to keep the majority of cars trapping under 200mph. Remember, the drivers are leaving off of a 60mph roll. Trap speeds are typically 30mph higher then at a drag strip. By the end of the first day we have a good idea of what to expect the following day and we can adjust the cones accordingly.

There will be two camera crews at the event, 1320 video and High Tech Corvette.
