WELL LETS GET IT DONE SHALL WE?
This is a one day event that we are involved with as a sponsor and I have been asked to invite the Lightning community to attend.
We will be in attendance with a Lightning from our stable for a few exhibition runs, however since the invitiation has been extended for all of the L community to attend we will most likely setup a few classes of racing for the L's.
It should be a great time for sure.
Post up if you can attend this event and check out the link and the associated website for information and details
Lets make this happen everyone

2009 East Coast S197 Mustang Shootout
Announcement
Five Guys Racing is pleased to announce the First Annual East Coast S197 Mustang Shootout at Rockingham Dragway in Rockingham, North Carolina, on Sunday, November 1, 2009. “The Rock” provides a centrally located, easily accessed facility on the Eastern seaboard complete with concessons, sponsor space, and nearby hotels.
The event was originally intended to focus on the 4.0L and 4.6L naturally aspirated S197's with six index, side-by-side race classes. However, due to popular demand the forced induction crowd is invited to participate in six additional classes for added excitement. The facility will manage a Sportsman ladder, and racers will face a .5 Pro Tree, half second indexes, and no breakout rules in effect. The overall emphasis is on street cars you can live with and drive every day, so all cars must be tagged and registered, and cannot be gutted. Winners in each class will receive trophies. Other awards are also being developed for items such as "best 60 foot", "longest road trip to the event", etc.
The following classes have been developed:
Grudge Matches!
Concerned about get eliminated early on? Don't be. Instead, please join some of the well known S197 racecar drivers and our other special guests in the non-award category. Call out a buddy (or a nemesis) for some straight-up heads up racing action. No one to call out? Just keep making "time trial" passes as if you are at a private rental. Everyone will have plenty of opportunity to race all day!
