  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Temple is about Centered, & it is a Fun Strip. (Keep hearing Dueling Banjos when I go there, LOL)
    John Schmidt was "Scared" of the shut down area, running the 1/4. Billy Bunch, was shaken up enough with his Vega Funny car, that after a Run, he pulled up to the Bar, at the far end, went in & got a Beer!! :laugh: (Unless You running in the 8's in the 1/4,You shouldn't have any problems)
    Fun to Run Strip, that is very Retro, for those that have never been there. One of the last tracks with actual Shade as well.

    I'm in San Antonio, only reason I voted for it. Temple seems like a nice compromise for those of us from Dallas or San Antonio.

    PS Relatively new to Texas also, so distances and times to get to places are beyond my understanding right now.

    I haven't been to the Temple track, but from what I hear y'all saying, it sounds nice. I like the shade thing.

    I do gave to say the track prep at Littke River was impressive, they prep the1/8 like crazy, it would pull your shoes off at the 1/8th. the rest of the quarter was clean asphalt, but i couldn't tell the transition running 11's
