NVCC members interested in caravanning up should meet at Newgate Shopping Center parking lot (corner of Routes 28 and 29 in Centreville) at 6:20 AM, leaving at 6:30 AM SHARP for a very nice scenic cruise through the mountains on the way to the drag strip.

Directions to the caravan start point are as follows:
From 66 Westbound, take Exit 53A to Route 28 South and then take the Route 29 South Exit, immediately turning right into the parking lot. There is a Sunoco gas station, Joann's Fabrics, Trader Joe's, and a Fast Eddie's in this plaza.

If you are interested in riding up with me, please email me at lilredcorvette94@yahoo.com and let me know.

Many thanks to the NVMC and their hospitality to the NVCC today. We had a great time. I ran my best ever ET of 13.526 today ('94 vette, stock engine and street tires).

Our club member Don Ellenberger (yellow C6Z06) ran an 11.96 @ 123 mph on his first ever drag day. He is now hooked and looking forward to practicing dragging again!

I will check to see if anyone has pics of us running...
