I would love to come support you guys but unfortunatly I can't make it this weekend. Good luck, though!
For those of you who don't know about it:
"Want to see the World's fastest MINI? The FIREBALLED! RACING M600 Flamethrower will be in action Oct 21-22 at the NHRA Sport Compact World Finals at Pomona Raceway. Come see the Team cars (MEGAMINI may also make a few runs) and hang out with the Team between rounds as The FIREBALLED! RACING Team tries to break their own record of 10.62 seconds in the quarter mile. Let's get a crowd of MINI Enthusists out there to support the Team, we'll probably be the only MINIs there against a sea of Hondas, Acuras and Subarus!
More info at:
