2023 HPL Open House

[JHZR2]

This is great! Hoping to hear a bit more about the notional schedule, since I’d probably plan for another road trip…

 

[Slow Car Sport Mode]

I'm going.

I am suddenly reminded of this TV series

David I have my seats and will be parked on the pit side with family and a few nitro newbies , for Saturday qualifying , looking forward to meeting you

 

[High Performance Lubricants]

That sounds great! We will have a get together in Erica’s pit area. Her and Richard Freeman will show and answer questions about the cars.

I'm going!

I'll have to check it out later. Parking a bunch of cars at this time. (I'd be willing to bet that NONE of them have HPL! Mine does.. see sig)

Will see you all that weekend!!

By the way.. last NASCAR I remember seeing was this one.. so. Should be amazing experience . Oldsmobile...

Here is a re-post of the flyer for thread flow. REMEMBER.. I was there in spirit for the first one, when I hit the road and the vehicle said "Nope! You're not going" 2 hours in.. on the road, to begin the weekend. So I believe I was there in spirit. That WILL not happen again so.. looking forward to this. Very.

Would love to go, and honestly I’m still debating it. I’d have to leave my wife who will be 33 weeks pregnant at that point by herself with our 2 year old, though. Me being gone for a couple of days might be a tough sell!

 

[JHZR2]

Looking forward to this event, the road trip, and the races/pits.

@High Performance Lubricants ive never been to this track. I’d like to buy tickets, but don’t know what area/section is recommended. @wwillson recommended south side, but is one area preferable than others for us to get tickets in so we can all be relatively close together and have best access to the areas we will be touring?

Thanks!!

I'd wait on response before ordering tickets.

 

[High Performance Lubricants]

The south side is pit side. That is definitely the place to be. Unfortunately I believe parking will be on the north side so it is a walk.

I will look into options for discounted tickets and reply back.

Looks like another great event. The last one was !

I won't be able to go this year, perhaps the next one.

 

[RDY4WAR]

We're 2.5 weeks out. I can't wait. Those who haven't registered, please do so. That way they get a head count for catering and the track.

The NHRA is offering discounted tickets for this group of $50 for the day. That's over half off the original price of admission. You're not going to want to miss this.

16 more days

Looks like I'll have some cases of Antifreeze loaded up.. if anyone wants "some" Universal/AMAM Concentrated, which is the bulk of what I have now.. most not all of it is branded "Autozone." Let me know, I'll utilize my cargo area and backseat for gifts. (I know, I know.. "Antifreeze to an oil event.") I still have some left, so..

And I'm not going to miss it this year and the vehicle has been gone over (made ready. Literally everything) and will see extensive road testing verification so.. my excitement meter is starting to build.

And. NHRA drag races? NASCAR too? Been awhile, I need a refresher course on what will be on the NHRA part.. was telling my mechanics "Drag Races with Top Fuel dragsters" when I explained to them my trip to an Oil Industry function.. Oh my!

Erica and Richard servicing the engine before her championship winning pass.

Her only mistake was the years with Dodge...

13 more days!

Feeling like this will be a long remaining 9 days of work as such. However. Friday the 19th.. I should be in Illinois pretty well ahead of the start time. Let's all meet talk and have a grand old time! Amongst us oil connoisseurs.

I'll pack some Antifreeze for at least @RDY4WAR and I made sure the Fumoto valve is in full effect. HPL oil to an HPL event only seems right.

How do we take advantage of that ticket price? Is it the same for adults and kids?

 

[RDY4WAR]

10 days out! I'm debating on whether I should change the oil before the trip or do it when I get back. It'll cross 15,000 miles while on the drive.

How do you get the group tickets? I don’t see instructions in the @High Performance Lubricants email.

I see adult tickets for $77 and junior tickets for $25.

Is there a specific section where we want to get seats all together?
