I’m in. See you there.

I highly recommend going to this event especially if you have never been. I run the timing system for wannagofast as a side gig. We have about 300 cars (150/each day). There will be several vipers out there. I talked to a guy a few weeks ago that said he’s bringing out a 2000hp TT viper, so hopefully he can put on a good show.
If you do come out, make sure and say hi. I’ll be at the timing tent at the end of the runway. Look for the red and white striped viper with a wing on it. I always like to talk to other viper owners. Just don’t be upset if I can’t talk for a long period, it’s a pretty busy area when cars are racing.
My aviator picture is at the Georgia half mile last year.

I don’t know how many of you will be interested in this, but WannaGOFAST officially announced last night that the newest location for their 1/2 mile event will be held outside Austin in July this year. Here’s the “official” announcement:
OK Everyone……..after several months of hard work we have finally secured our most incredible location to date……….at none other than the World Famous Horseshoe Bay Resort in Horseshoe Bay, Texas!! Located only 45 minutes outside of the great city of Austin, TX!!
We will be hosting our signature Heads Up, 1/2 Mile Shootout on their very own private 6000ft runway at Horseshoe Bay Resort!
Now you can play world class golf, championship tennis, ride waverunners, go water-skiing and have a 5-Star dinner all while RACING your car at the same time!!
Checkout the resort’s website at http://www.hsbresort.com. The host hotel will be the Horseshoe Bay Marriott and all participants will receive a very nice discount……….not too mention the hotel is only a 1/2 mile from the airport.
This event will be held on July 12-13th, 2014………a perfect time of year to have some “High Speed” fun and enjoy all of this resort’s incredible amenities!!
Registration will open up in early March and sponsors will be announced in the coming weeks!!
Spread the word because this is going to be an event for the history books!!
Texas here we come!!
Much Love,
wannaGOFAST & Team!
Blake, the owner, is a good friend of mine and I actually help put the events on, so I will be there as well. I don’t think I will bring the viper as its a 20+hour drive each way, but I would love to meet other viper owners and check out your car’s. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me. Here is a couple links for the events we held last year.
