Anyone still interested? Fall is coming up fast.

Based on the website, we're looking at about $85 each for 20 of us to rent Cayuga for a day (assuming they won't negotiate)

I can't get St. Thomas to answer the frigging phone or return an email. They must be busy. I think it's a small family run business. Interestingly they're now NHRA certified. That's pretty cool.

Let's start a list. If you're interested, post up in the thread, and PM me your email address.

not many guys posted/PM'd. Here's the list I've been gathering....


1. sakimano (B7 S4 JHM tune, full exhaust)
2. buddysnack (B5 S4 Stage III VAST Frankenturbos)
3. axel (B7 S4)
4. boravr6 (B7 S4 JHM tune, full exhaust)
5. 81bear (B8 S4 APR 93 tune, full exhaust)
6. TSW General (B5 S4 Stage III ASP K04)
7. seinsmeld (B8 S4)
8. iamaudihr (B8 S4 although his car is delayed)
9. control one (B5 S4 Stage II)
10. notorious VR (B5 S4 Stage III Tial 605)
11. mikeH (B7 S4 GIAC tune, Stasis exhaust)
12. artS4 (B7 S4)

That's a pretty solid list, but unfortunately I bet only about 1/2 make it out. The plan is to rent Cayuga on a fall weekday (has to be a weekday) from 11-4pm. The cost will be about $100 if we get to 20 guys.Basically I just want 20-30 cars so that costs are manageable, as are the number of runners. With only 30 cars, you'll be able to get about 20 passes in if you want to. It'll be fantastic compared to lining up for ages.

There's a group of N54 powered BMW owners who have a little dragstrip gang, so it might be fun to include them as well if we need people to get to critical mass. What do you guys think?

As long as it's a weekend and I'm in town, I'm in. I have one wedding to attend in September and one in October. That's pretty much it for me. Available at all other times.

As for the BMW gang, I have no issues inviting them. If it's the same guys that are going next Wednesday, then why not invite them. They're inviting us to theirs (although they're just doing the walk-on
