I'm gonna have to pass on the 12th. Gotta work both Friday & Saturday nights so I'm out. Go kick some ass Wally!

 

[gospeedgo]

Go kiss some ass Wally!

He did...thats how he got the ride for tommorow night

Hmmm...Nate needs a car for tommorow night and Phil's busy....


Oh well, have fun at work. When your ready to play again, Jeff may just be ready for ya. 10's here we come

 

[WaterPog]

**** with the new rules in drag radial 10's may not be good enough

 

[pcinpdx]

Don't tell me that there's gonna be someone that should be running in True Street or Outlaw that's going to strap on a big set of DRs just so they can scoop up $100. I thought the idea was to relax the rules to get more street cars in.

Well, at least I hope it's not someone I know...

Oh, and Jeff, I'd love to accommodate by letting Nate take the car but I'm currently working on a *small* issue that needs to be taken care of before the car goes out again. I won't bore you with the details, but suffice it to say that the car is down right now. Yet another reason why it won't be doing the 1320 tonight. If it was, I'd love to line up against a certain red Cobra thats been talking about his 12 second wonder...

 

[gospeedgo]

Umm..i dont think that redfire runs the straight line, but I know where there's a blue coupe that wants another run

Good luck with the car, and let us know if you need anything

 

[pcinpdx]

...but I know where there's a blue coupe that wants another run

He'll get his chance soon enough...maybe.

I posted over on HU that I might have to hang up the helmet for the rest of the year. My new job is kicking my ass and there's no end in sight. While it's good to be back to full time employment, it's wreaking havoc on my race time. I'm definitely going to have to make it out one more time this year to give Jeff his shot - I know he wants a piece of the GreenGo.

Just saying hi.. Talked to a few of ya at PIR tonight. Nice turnout for the Stangs! I was chillin around with Tim Ballz in his Supra.. Hopefully I can compete in the next quick 16 event myself and snag that $100.. lol

-Matt

 

[gospeedgo]

Yeah, had my fingers crossed for Tim but it just wasnt gonna happen.

Great turnout!....enough for True Street and a good sized Drag radial class. Lets keep up the car count

 

[pcinpdx]

So...

How about some results? What kind of numbers?

 

[gospeedgo]

Hopefully Pog is listening, cause my memory sucks...

Jeff didnt get a 10...yet
Chung ran a 10.3 or 4 I think
Vulcan was running 9 flatish
Misha....ran

thats about all I remember
hopefully someone in the know will post actual times

 

[cubicgator]

the gto went 10.6/7 i beleive, large but not huge radials, tim was 11.0 many in the mid 11s. was a great turn out. true street had 7/ radial i think 8, outlaw 6

 

[WaterPog]

The GTO was running in the mid/high 10's like walley said, and was running on the 295/65-15's. They are a pretty darn big tire, basically measuring 30"X10". Not a very impressive time for such a large tire really, should be interesting come September 2nd.

Wally's car counts are correct as well, best field we've had yet although we only had one car show up who intended to run in Sport Compact (Lucas English) so he ended up getting bumped up into DR.

I should be able to do the event write up tomorrow, I've been kinda busy today fighting some head lice that showed up on the kids :-/

 

[pcinpdx]

Sounds like a good turn out. I wish I could have been there. Hopefully I'll get some time tomorrow to go work on the car - just depends on how late I have to work tonight.

So it sounds like the DR tire size limit is lifted for the rest of the season?

 

[WaterPog]

It will be for the 2nd, and most likely for the last race on October 7th as well. It's just kind of a wait and see type thing, if the class gets out of hand we may end up reeling it back in. It is supposed to be an entry level class afterall, and there are cars locally who are more than capable of running 9's on drag radials if they wanted to just cherry-pick the class.
