Sick Week....

Yeah, i never got that myself either.. you know when the event is, but don't bother preparing til the last moment.. If you mean the nivlac vid.. they spent 4 months on the car and were juts buttoning it up before the event.. He's pushing those 4200's hard, not the first one that has exploded.. This one at least had good rods in it but it didn't help.
Keep in mind too, they don’t open registration and publish the dates or locations for these type events until about 3-4 months out.

And then, in the case of drag week, most spots are taken in mere minutes, with hundreds wait listed. It’s entirely possible that some folks don’t get the word they are able to run the event until much closer to the event as people drop out. Frieburger talked about that at length during drag week.
