Good luck to whomever is trying to get registered. I placed 3rd in my class last year and had early entry but I decided not to go this year. It's going to be tough today seeing everyone talk about getting signed up.

Type Fast and may your internet connection be turbo charged.

I took a big reality pill not long after this thread started and figured it wasn't likely to work out for me. If the stars align, I'll be one of the people who roll in unregistered on Day 1.

I think I’m skipping this year and waiting on it to be back in my general area.

I guess next year it will either be in New Hampshire or comeback to the central states again. The distance and driving in the NE scared us off this year. I know in September I will feel different! Going to some killer tracks this year.

What’s the “pre” registration all about anyway?

A friend of mine from Oklahoma flew in for the NHRA Nationals at Wild Horse Pass this weekend. I went over to meet them for Breakfast...told too many stories, got home at 10:06, already sold out, so I'm on the waitlist. Boone had problems as well. Dale is the only one of us preregistered.

It sold out in 4 minutes 50 seconds. I wasn't fast enuff, I missed the birth date part of the form and it made me go back, then when I hit go again, my credit card info had disappeared, so I had to re-enter that. Then when I hit go, it made me go back because the check mark on the "accept" box had disappeared. Then when I went back, the credit card info was gone again. SO it was 12:05 by the time I finally got it right, it was too late. I should have a pretty low # on the wait list, so hopefully I get the go ahead before we hit the road for Drag Week 2019.

This year, I'll have the car dialed din and loaded for bear! I'm going to spend the summer making passes, dialing in the clutch, suspension, tires, carbs and driving technique. Then just before the event. I'll check the lifters and put in new valve springs.

I'm also putting an air bag over the center of the rear end to help hold the load of the tools and luggage in the trunk, so I don't have to re-adjust the coil overs twice per day, and I'm putting in a clutch tamer so I don't have to adjust the soft lock 2 or 3 times a day. That will make life on Drag Week much easier. wrench

I'll be there in my Dart, small block power adder class.

Hopefully meet some fellow Mopar people on the tour.

Any tips for a first timer?
