Hey Brandon - Why not just head over to Atlanta dragstrip in Commerce? It's just out I-20. [This message has been edited by 69 Sportsroof (edited 02-19-2003).]

Just out of curiosity, where in Fulton county are you? I'm in Alpharetta. Don't you just love how Atlanta Dragway is an hour away from Atlanta?
