How does this site compare to zmax? I've never been to zmax but thought of going to the next event. Now I'm debating on which to go to.

John says not as big ... I always thought it was bigger .. maybe because there's not any unusable areas .... no light poles ... and no dip/drains to be designed around

Mark, haven't heard if you want a co-ride ....

I think zMax is larger than Black Lake. It's a tad skinnier but a lot longer.

Looks to be an active event! :rockon:

JY, you or Pilson need to go to Pro with Jadrice.. I want to see them in same conditions.

I cant wrap my head around why he got that car for the class,instead of one like yours. over a hundred less hp,not that much lighter..
no where near the tq numbers.....

They will prolly put you guys in track cleaner group... and you will come home thinking how much faster you would have been on a clean course! :lol:

I will probably run pro, just to see where I am in relation to how well Jadrice did at nationals. I think the car is there, hopefully the driver/drivers are there as well.

it's supposed to actually be pretty grippy now ... new asphalt ... but the amt. of sand on the surface made it hard to tell
