Anyone know where I can beg, borrow, or steal a lightning cause this sounds like it might be fun.

Cool--but unless they are drag radials, it just a PITA to pedal it.

Whaler 03-08-2008 04:36 PM

We're running the drag radials. You, Jeff and Arthur need to make a trip here sometime. I do like the new motor. :)

With all the power you make you'll probably be pedaling the whole way down the track. Just enough for me to take the win. :poke:

+1 Frank said he had to pedal a lot last night on street tires and his timeslip showed it.

Even I could have beat him.:poke:

If my truck is tuned for the Whipple by then, I'm in. Hell I'll go just to watch/support even if it's not...

I got your name down.

Get that Whipple on, it will probably help you with traction on drag radials. :)

Ronnie 03-16-2008 06:10 PM

I'll be going to watch hopefully!! I'll be a pit bitch!!--lol

You need to just join in on the fun, I'm sure you'll get through a few rounds on street tires. Especially if you line up against me. :(

another option is you can ask slow04 to borrow his nittos, he doesn't need them he'd probably win on toyo proxies anyways.

Here is a slip of my attempt to make a pass on Drag Radials yesterday.

Updated times. We need to start this thing as early as possible. It's OK if some of you don't make a qualifying pass, everyone just needs to be ready to go for eliminations.

I need at least 1 pass before we race

DolSVT00 03-25-2008 07:35 PM

That sucks, I don't mind adjusting it a little bit, What time will work for you?

DolSVT00 03-25-2008 07:48 PM

I don't wanna ruin it for everyone you guys just go when your ready.

My wife dont get off work till 4:00pm, and I'll have the kids

Mike 03-25-2008 08:04 PM

How about we adjust the times by an hour. That should still give us plenty of time to get the race done.
Will that work Randy?

DolSVT00 03-25-2008 08:30 PM

I may be able to get there earlier than 4:30, but I can't commit to anything before 5pm because of the wife's schedule.

Thats the reason I said don't wait on me

Mike 03-25-2008 08:44 PM

Times adjusted again, hopefully everyone can make it.

Whaler 03-26-2008 09:31 AM

Can the qualifying passes begin sooner and still start the race at 6:15?

Mike 03-26-2008 05:58 PM

No problem Larry, Qualifying passes can be made as soon as they open the lanes up.

Whaler 03-26-2008 07:39 PM

Is there a limited number of qualifying passes?

Dave 03-26-2008 11:46 PM

It's looking to be a very good race day at the track on Sunday, I don't know if anyone has looked at the weather, but it's suppose to be Cloudy and in the mid 60's. Mike, bring the tri-pod and I will be the designated camera man.

Dave 03-30-2008 12:46 PM

I should be there around that time also.

chrisheltra 03-30-2008 01:49 PM

Just got of the phone with Larry a while ago and he said he'd be there around 3 aswell.

Randy can you make it?

05Saleen 03-30-2008 03:29 PM

chrisheltra 03-30-2008 07:01 PM

We don't need no stinking track :)

...but it may of helped me. The silver truck driver pointed over to the cop car across the street, and by the time I looked forward he had 3 car lengths on me. :flame:
