Dragstrip day at Thompson to practice race starts?

[TRMN8TR]

I know there is a drag racing forum, but I figured it would get the attention of more track day riders in here. Some of us were discussing practicing race starts, and the drag strip would be a good place to do that. It'd also be fun to go as a group so there would be more bikes to race against and better opportunities for smack talking.

I'm thinking of going either this coming Wed or the next. They have "Grudge Racing" at Thompson and its only $12 from 5-8:30. Basically, run as many times as you can get in.

Anyone else?
