So I know the Challenge is late this year but somehow it's already September. So who's going and what are you bringing? Who's going to win this year? Will Andy make a triumphant return? Will Hong Norr put down the beer and pick up a wrench? Will the drag strip be a pool of oily car blood from a full day of racing? Let the fun begin!

only 70 days to go

I'm going, if someone could tell me when the entry deadline is....

Bringing my daily driver again. This time with 100% more boost than last year. (No, really.)

I was wondering if there was going to be a "who's attending", or "smack talk" thread.
Swankforce. The deadline is usually around 30 days before the event. I plan to send in the application after we test the car on 9-22. I'd hate to send in the money on the 15th, then blow up the car a week later. (Which is Likely for any Challenge car.)

Oh, we are bringing a '94 Mustang (SN-95). We brought a '96 in $2010 (see avatar) but this one is much meaner. We caution small children and pregnant women before use.

I seem to recall being allowed to enter chump/lemons cars, possibly in their own sub-category? Am I dreaming, or is that correct? That would be fun, but I'd have to go back and look over our budget to see what we really spent.

Bought it through the $20xx classifieds on this board. No big secrets at all. (;))

Where have you been? I thought everyone knew about it (and was still pissed at me for it!)

We should be there again. Hopefully with a 68 Mustang. We are not planning on bringing back the chumpcar. We figured two class wins in a row was enough.

(1st year uncontested, 2nd year had one other chump racer)

And it hasn't run in over ten years, I've never autocrossed it and it is still not running enough to drive it.

This has the markings of a 'murican muscle show down.
