At the same time...would love to line of em sometime just for shits and giggles if your ever around Indy!

If you ever are in town when KOTS runs....you should check it out. Our guys from out in the sticks come out and run with the ChiTown guys for King of the Streets. Some of the races get pretty dicey!

And money is flying all over...lol. Happens at US41 Drag Strip (No Limit Raceway is what its called now) and they are very lax with the safety rules - I've seen 4 people in a car on a drag run on private events...lol.

4 people is insane!!

Here in houston u cant even run without a helmet if u are faster then 14.5.

nitrous bottle has to be safely mounted with a release dump tube..

any car in the 10's would require roll cage, firejacket, fire extinguisher, helmet and just the whole nine...

MAN!!!! I didnt know it was that easy in INDY! My friend is in dental in Indianapolis, visiting him soon in june or july.. Maybe ill hit u up so we can go cruising

LOTS of people will take RX7 w/ LS1 swaps in em or whatever and run once just for a time though just to get the boot. lol But just north of Indy in Muncie at Muncie Dragway they are somewhat more what you'd expect - safety is there....but they arent anal about it to the extent that they are in Indy. But US41 (No Limit Dragway) can get insane with what they will let happen. They are stuggling too badly to stay in business and the ChiTown boyz can get pretty insane with what they will bring to race.

Back to the scheduled programming I guess...
