i need the 2k to help pay for this new build man lol

[Slow]

Where will this be at?

[TLyons90]

No GTR's, no badbob creations, no green mustangs and no red foose trucks.
:cheers

Yes! Now everyone has a chance :mrgreen:

[LDELEE]

For this one, we are trying to keep the rules very simple. As we continue, we may have to tweak the rules a little. The rules are as follow; factory dash, working headlights, no tire bigger than a 28", factory windows. As said before, the rules are very simple, I know this street car catergory have alot of gray areas and different views on what is actually a street car, but we have to start somewhere and go from there. Hope these rules is a start in the right direction!

[slowgreen99]

Simple is good

[slowgreen99]

Yes

[spdracr0]

No GTR's, no badbob creations, no green mustangs and no red foose trucks.

I like those rules. I think we can let Rob in, I will run him first round...or yeah, well maybe no Rob would be safer...

[spdracr0]

Bob can be allowed with a 60ft clause. I get to start at the 60ft

My car fits those rules. Maybe you should add tags and insurance atleast.

[spdracr0]

Dot tires front and rear. I don't understand the 28 rule. My truck had 315/60 radials and they look a lot taller than 28.

[slowgreen99]

They are taller. But no d.o.t. tire only rule...

[BigHemi]

Maybe you should add tags and insurance atleast.
Yes. Current tags and insurance, no dealer tags.

[spdracr0]

If it is a street car, then it should be street legal and that means it should have DOT legal street tires..IMO...if not it is just a race car posing as a street car which is what half of these cars are anyway.

Don't talk about Badbob that way!

[spdracr0]

I like randy's version of the rules too..

[TLyons90]

This is getting good :cheers

[1998ta__1991rs]

the only rule is it has working AC, that would make for a good race

[Jimmyz18]

here we go again.....cry baby street car guys trying to change the rules to make it fair for them.....if you don't like the rules, don't race otherwise shut up and put your car in the beams....just saying :poke:

[UnaBomber]

current tags and insurance should always be a requirement in any street car class

[spdracr0]

Crying. Sounds like a 28 inch tire shootout to me

[Jimmyz18]

Then don't race in it if your skeered

[UnaBomber]

Then don't race in it if your skeered

Motor and tranny are out and wont be back in in time

and i have absolutely no problem running drag cars in my road race car :bigthumb:

[slowgreen99]

Ok. So we'll strap the radials on the rcf. Does that help you turn on the W? Alrighty then

[slowgreen99]

Dorchester just has never been a drag radial friendly track. That's why I said no d.o.t. tire rule

[spdracr0]

Sounds like easy money for Wes

[slowgreen99]

Then tell Wes to come out! Or should we cry because we know we cant outrun wes? Fuck no. Wes puts his ass in the lights, then i'm going in next to him if that's how it falls.

[UnaBomber]

Sounds like easy money for Wes

what kind of numbers does he run?

[slowgreen99]

Its a grudge car. But id say EASILY some low 6.2x in the 1/8

[Darryl Buckner]

Its a grudge car. But id say EASILY some low 6.2x in the 1/8

Yea if he shoots..

[spdracr0]

I was thinking 6.3s. See how much I know.

[UnaBomber]

Its a grudge car. But id say EASILY some low 6.2x in the 1/8

thats about what i ran on my old setup.

best 1/8th was 6.3@113 on pump gas and street tires

i really wish the car was back together to run this event

[slowgreen99]

Damn! Please keep it down until this event is over!

[LDELEE]

Slowgreen, we were thinking on the same lines. That's why we didn't include radials.

[Carlrx7]

Drive through the gate or can we trailer the cars for this street race class?

[slowgreen99]

Trailer. You had one too so shh

[Blue Skunk]

Slowgreen, we were thinking on the same lines. That's why we didn't include radials.

I don't understand this. A 275 is a radial tire. :confused:

[slowgreen99]

Making the 275s work is rough if youre going fast

[Blue Skunk]

So is it just a 28" shootout or is the 275 part just to entice street cars to race with race cars?

[slowgreen99]

Put slicks on. Or if u think you can make the 275s work, use them.

[LDELEE]

Yes, if you think you can get radials to work, it's your choice.

[Blue Skunk]

Your missing the point. There are no street cars driving around on 28" slicks, only race cars. With the current rules, that makes this a 28" shootout, not a street car shootout.

With the current rules, what works on the track is irregardless in this race. The winner will be wearing slicks.

Its like WWhittle said, you may have some heavy hitters showing up with the rules you currently have. No street car will have a chance.

Not trying to muddy the rules, just clearify them.

[slowgreen99]

Good! For $2000 of free money, I hope some heavy hitters come!

[TurboWS6]

Good! For $2000 of free money, I hope some heavy hitters come!

More chances to hear the gap band later in the night.

[LDELEE]

I get your point Blue Skunk. Was just trying to come up with a way that would allow the tire to be some what of a equalizer in the fight. Open to any suggestions, but we are trying to get a good car count.

pfffft. apparently you haven't met shits weak or WTFWSAT! Riding on 28" slicks FTW...

[Blue Skunk]

Understood. I would at least ask for tags and insurance on the car entering to qualify it as a street car if its going to be a street car shootout or scratch the street car part.

Looks like I may need a set of 28" slicks for my car. I think its good for some 6.3x too. :mrgreen:

[slowgreen99]

Leave the 275s on.

[Blue Skunk]

I dont have 275's on it now. I have 31x10.5 stiff walls on it now and I'm not talking about the GT500. :mrgreen:

[slowgreen99]

31s? And you were griping about d.o.t. tires? Man

[Blue Skunk]

I was never griping about DOT tires just about the rules possibally changing blocking cars that dont have tags and insurance, like me.

[BAD BOB]

Knew it would come down to this. How many that are bitching actually race at the track or would race in this event? The track is just trying to put on a race to make those who WILL come and race a place to/reason to do so. We went to a "street car" race the at the HOH a month ago and the rules were basically a small block race. No lexan, no fiberglass body parts other than hood and must have at least factory front or rear seats and sb on 28"s or smaller. I was on radials and probably the heaviest there and probably the only one that could REALLY drive down the road, but did we bitch? No bc we spent nothing extra to race in it and made it to the finals. The moral of the story, done bitch if you 1. don't have a dog in the fight or 2. don't have to pay shit to do it! Thanks

[slowgreen99]

Holy shit! Did ya see that?! Someone using logic!

[Blue Skunk]

I agree with BadBob. I fit almost all of the rules for this race, all except the tires. I was just trying to see if the rules would change before the race. I dont want to spend $460 on tires that I wont use.

I'm not complaning about anything, just inquiring to see where I fit in.

So your car has tags and insurance but just big tires? I say we pair up first round with me on 28s and with tags and insurance and if you win then you continue on!

[slowgreen99]

Ho snap!

[Blue Skunk]

So your car has tags and insurance but just big tires? I say we pair up first round with me on 28s and with tags and insurance and if you win then you continue on!

No, just the oppsite. My car does NOT have tags and insurance, but currently the rules dont require it.

This is what i've been talking about.

[BAD BOB]

No, just the oppsite. My car does NOT have tags and insurance, but currently the rules dont require it.

This is what i've been talking about.

So your car doesn't fit ANY of the rules? I'm lost.

[Blue Skunk]

So your car doesn't fit ANY of the rules? I'm lost.

It's fits ALL but one.

Factory dash - yes
working headlights - yes
max tire 28" - no
factory windows - yes


Thats it. The only rule I don't fit in is the tires, and I can change them.

My questions were to help me decide if I wanted to get some 28"s and give it a try, not to irritate you.

Change em or just pick me first round ill be fine with it

[Slow]

I would like to make it to this, tagged, insured, all working lights, passed nc emissions and will be on radials

[WWhittle]

Nobody wants to see a shootout with cars spinning the tires all the way down the track- the heck with that DOT only crap!

[slowgreen99]

And if youre hooking every pass on a radial at dorchester, no one wants to watch you go down the track anyway! 8 second turds.

[chrisheltra]

Irregardless isn't a word.

[Jimmyz18]

Change em or just pick me first round ill be fine with it

if you get to what I asked you about I'll take your slow ass first round!! :yourock:

[Jimmyz18]

Then tell Wes to come out! Or should we cry because we know we cant outrun wes? Fuck no. Wes puts his ass in the lights, then i'm going in next to him if that's how it falls.

I was gonna say they probably dont even race. But you get to slide on that one.

[blkscls1z]

Having a street car race and allowing a slick just makes no sense to me. If other tracks can get a radial/DOT tire to hook, then why can't Dorchester?

[Matts94Z28]

Y'all better hope there isn't an 8sec street car race anytime soon...

[slowgreen99]

Darlington has the perfect d.o.t., cruise first, street car race. I think ones coming up this friday or next? Maybe.

[Derek]

Just stick to LDELEE's rules if one change gets made this thread will turn into a lobby of requests. Then the person putting on the event gets tired of trying to make everyone happy and they usually say F it and it never happens. Look at what happend with the Top Dog races.

Good question, the money needs to go back into the track rather than high $$ BMW's and Mercedes' It's a nice local track to go to, but it gets frustrating when you have to take a shit there and can't cause the bathrooms don't even have doors on the stalls.....just sayin

Hell, it's been like that since I was a kid. I guess you haven't had the luck of walking in on a guy hoovering over toilet yet... Someone has to make that mess!

Geez, ya think things would change. Lol. No I haven't had the luxury of walking in on someone...thankfully. Lol. But I guess that's why I caught some scum bag pissing on my truck in between my truck and trailer. Guess that's ok, cause they don't care about the bathrooms.

[blkscls1z]

So, basically you are telling me to STFU and go to Darlington. :mrgreen:

The stick part and the 17" radial rule for autos keeps the race cars out!

Nope. But im not gonna sway the rules for them. A lot of races are called "street car" races and the same rules apply.

[LDELEE]

We did start to renovate our restrooms. We started with the ladies restroom first, because they were a quick fix and the project could be completed within a certain timeframe. The woman's restrooms are basically completed, except for putting up a few minor things(pics in stalls, touchless hand sanitizers, etc). Unfortunately, the rain came and hindered our effort to start on the men's. In the past 3 months, we have only been able to race 5 days, therefore little revunue has been generated, plus we made other improvements such as extending Gaurdrail on the left side to end of track, making somewhat of a sand trap area and minor landscaping around restrooms.

We have a very unique theme for our men's restrooms, one that's once complete will be one of the best restrooms around. We are just in the process of getting all the fixtures and materials in place to start the project. We are very proud of what we have done to our ladies restrooms and that same effort, time and creativity will be carried over to the men's. I assure you, just bare with us!

[03SVTCOBRA]

Much better than the last time i was in the ladies room.

[LDELEE]

Lol

[spdracr0]

Y'all better hope there isn't an 8sec street car race anytime soon...

Considering the way rules are enforced for these races, I am gonna have an 8 sec street car at the next Darlington race...the 5.0 will just have to sit....

[LDELEE]

Due to the weather forecast calling for 50% chance of rain the entire day, we have decided to postpone the Streetcar Shootout for today.

[GreebeanZ28]

So, basically you are telling me to STFU and go to Darlington. :mrgreen:

[LDELEE]

We will try to open today for the gamblers race and test and tune.

[GRAY]

No body want to see 7.50 street cars go down the track. Thats like watching a 4 wheeler drive down the track. You street car guys cry a lot. If you don't like the rules don't come you weren't going to come any how. Most likely your new shifter knob didn't come in yet.
DAMN JEGS

[spdracr0]

7.50 street cars. Lol

[GreebeanZ28]

Put these fucking race cars on a pep boys futura tire and I'll come watch.

[schardbody]

Street car rules should simply be current tags and insurance. If your shit is tagged and insured then throw a tire on it and run...

No need for a cruise, no need for tire restriction or anything else. Larger car count and no bitching about race cars dressed as street cars.

Why everyone think the rules are supposed to give them the advantage.

[GRAY]

You can put tag and insurance on anything

[GRAY]

Put these fucking race cars on a pep boys futura tire and I'll come watch.

Your just mad because your slow if you even run!:boohoo:

You can cheat at any game. If someone is willing to cheat their way Into a "street car race" then I'm sad for them.

And I'm sure you don't like my version of the rules because your car isn't tagged and insured, probably because its a track only car that you'd like to enter in a street car race.

Hey my cars fit the rules for 4 different street car races. Carolina, thunder valley, Dorchester,and bowman maybe y'all should catch up with why the tracks are making the rules that way. Must be working!!:bigthumb:

[CHEVYMAN434]

So,when is this race gonna be held??
