"RUN FOR THE MONEY" @ Lakeland Dragstrip--OCT 14th -----MEET------

ADMISSION is $15

gates open- 7am
racing starts- 9am
eliminations starts -1pm

This meet will have to be diffrent because of the parking issues and caravan routes.

What i can say is we could all meet up at the track on a designated area maybe i can talk to the owner to see if we can get a little area marked off for parking.

well if you are going put your name on the list

The RX8 project is getting there slowly but with progress. At the present I am searching for sponsors. When you get into the 7 second range it gets expensive. Here are some pictures.

Here are some pictures of the Corolla in action at the event in Aruba a few weeks ago. It ran 9.80 in the 1/4. Enjoy Minana Racing

guys, i had so much fun today watching the cars run down the track. it's the most fun i've had since moving to florida in 2002. the sounds. the smells. reminded me of back home so much ... mmmm.

there were many cars there that i liked, but i think my favorite had to be "Nitrocita" - a Starlet that made it very close to the end.

i'm so excited. thank you all.

on a sidenote, does anyone know how badly the red Rx-7 was damaged? it made contact, but i couldn't see how bad. the driver was okay and in good spirits.

We had to take the trany out and repair some springs inside. We were able to repair it on time and thanks to the owner of the track who was really nice, we were able to run a few times. We had fun, until next time. Minana fever!!!!
