Yes, 8AM.

Since I don't like to spend 40 minutes in line, idling, working the clutch and waiting to pay once the gates open, I try to get there as early as possible. I have never been first though. Some people must get there at 6:30 or so.

My_Little_Pony · Jun 2, 2004

Alright, I have put a couple dollars to the side for this event, so I will be there (unless it rains). How are we telling who is stangnet and who is not?

281pony · Jun 2, 2004

im going to plan on getting there early also, but 6:30 is a little early since ive got a 90 minute drive there

lamrith · Jun 2, 2004

yeah we need to get something for knowing who is who.. I know someone was working on static decals for us..

Can't blame you. Getting up early is not for everyone. I suggest you arrive about 9:00 to 9:30, that way you'll likely miss the rush and drive right in.

How about writing a four inch "s" in the upper passenger-side-corner of your rear window. That would mean you do not mind being approached as an active Stanget type. Just write it with the white marker used for your number.

Stock:

Good idea, although I was kinda hoping that if you are of the female persuasion that you would write the "S" on your shirt in the center of your chest so I would have an excuse for looking!!!!! Pink would be a nice color....

281pony · Jun 2, 2004

yeah, 9 sounds like a better time to arrive then 7 or earlier

this will be my second time to PR, last time there was only about 10 people in the stands. around how many people go to this usually? ill be in the last set of bleachers on the right side with the blue/white tearaway mustang if anyone from sn wants to hangout

Sorry Junky, I am very male. The use of "you" above was in reference to "any female", right? You were not referring to me, personally.

Stock - I know your a guy... I was using the "any female" variety of "you" to make my comment generic... UGH!!!!! So much for my crappy humor, eh!!!!

No worries. I was thinking of those reading the thread being misled, so I wanted to clarify. Now, about your wife coming in her Mustang...

Tylerb59 · Jun 3, 2004

I'm going to have to be on the road by 6am to make it down there by 8am.

Looking forward to this!!

Toddzilla · Jun 3, 2004

So I'm teetering on going, but I'm thinking it might be pointless for me on street tires.

468LC · Jun 3, 2004

Not like you have anything better to do todd.

Toddzilla · Jun 3, 2004

Well....there is an autox on saturday that I was going to go to.

I would just order my nitto RIIs, but they won't get here in time.

Toddzilla · Jun 3, 2004

Hmmm.....maybe someone will let me rent their drag radials.

N20Jnky · Jun 3, 2004

Todd:

The drag races are bracket races thus all you really need to be is extremely consistent. If I remember correctly the guy that won last year was driving a basically stock GT...

Stock50:

Very sly there about the wife!!! Sorry, but she is not a StangNetter....

Toddzilla · Jun 3, 2004

I know that they are brackets, but if I go I want to get the best times I can. The few times I have been out there traction was very illusive. There is no way that I can even come close to running consistant times on my current street tires.

stock50LX · Jun 3, 2004

My best times last your were at ALL FORD day. The track was actually prepped.

In my view, the best reason for attending is to see all the Fords and talk to the owners who don't normally come to the drag races. Lots of classic cars usually show-up. The bracket races are not taken so seriously.
