My original post was just a guide for beginners - Anyone who is going to need to know about rules and regs will almost always be a more advanced drag racer and know all the shit I posted. But thanks for all the info anyway.

And there is definately not anything on a test n tune entry form for you to put in your driver's license number.

This is the perfect attitude - You don't have to beat anyone else - Just look at improving every time you go out - Nice work

Who really gives a fuck who wrote it first :wub:


Either way, it's a good write-up. I was lucky to have had pointers from a few CB members before i took my rexi down.

Now all i can do is practice :) Gotta get that 60ft below 2.3 ROFL
