The first time I raced my Firebird I was up against a Grand National. When we staged and he spooled up his turbo it was impressive. He beat the **it out of me.
I have a lot of respect for Turbo cars.........and even supercharged ones.

it will be at Norwalk as well. They run all Pontiacs and there is a special Class for FWD that INTENSE sponsors. They also have a car show on the other side of the track. I'll try to get more information on it.

Is there anything like this closer to the midwest? There are several track in wisconsin, but the attraction is pontiac (L67), for me anyways. Don't really see alot of that normally.

Where do you guys find out about these events?
