The East Coast F-Body Natioanls is an event hosted by the New JErsey F-Body Owners Association each year to celebrate our clubs anniversary. We feature a car show, bracket and heads up drag racing, give aways, prizes, and much much more.

planning is going great. we could use some feedback on a few things to keep everything rollin.
1. we are looking to add a chassis dyno to the meet. we coudl use some feedback on what price you all think is fair for pulls and who is interested in putting their car on the rollers.
2. there is some debate about possibly having a non-secular invocation before the start of the days events. please let us know what you think so that we can decide whther it is a go or no go.
3. we are also talking about adding asking the track to add a mustang vs f-body bracket race to the thier normal friday night test and tune/grudge racing. it woudl be a great warm up for the nats and also help to make the weekend more worth whiel to those who are plannign to travel to attend the show.
for all the latest details and discussion check out the east coast nats forum at www.NJFBOA.org
let me know what you all think fo these ideas so we cna keep the ball rolling. i look forward to yoru feedback and seeing you all at the '06 East Coast F-Body Nationals
