Hard Tire Race This Sunday
 

There will be a hard tire race this Sunday. $500 to win. Gates open at 3. Race start at 6.

Whats the rules for a hard tire race?

No slicks are drag radial tires. Street cars that drive thru gate.

Hmm...

How will people be lined up? random or what?

Are MT's a hard tire?

chris come on true street tires and have fun

Ah no.... You call that guy back?

You're gonna be in town?

A non drag radial track having a street tire race? :confused:

Hard tires. All motor. No slicks or drag radials. Thats the rules.

so any street car on a hard tire that drives through the gate?

I cant remember if its 2wd only or what. But yeah.

a 2wd only hard tire race at dorchester is just asking for someone to wreck

So if I drove through the gates on my hankooks I still wouldn't be able to participate? Just playing devils advocate btw because I have no intention of participating and risking stuffing my truck in the wall.

Are you all motor?

:hysterical:

I don't know what's going on...why are y'all worried about street tires at this track?

Blower....:(

We are just giving it a try. Had a few inquires so far, so we are going to see how it goes.

I may try it out with the trailblazer. It ain't fast but I can skate it threw there I hope!

Wonder if my 8.0s can win this.

Honestly. You don't want to know.

Street tires tear up the track for the cars that need prep to get threw Wes

I like this street tire race idea.

I know...but figured since this was a street tire only event then it wouldn't really matter. And that regardless it wouldn't hurt the street tire guy's times, which one would think would be the only worry for anyone posting in this thread.. Sounded like people were saying they were going to stuff their car on street tires there, which is why I asked.

And I know I owe LDELEE (sorry, I don't recall your name) an apology for so naively talking bad about the track prep that one time I took the C5Z, and blaming the bad hooking on it. I was on shit street tires and there were plenty of people there doing wheelstands. The problem was me, not the track I'm sure. I just couldn't, and still can't, figure out why Darlington never gave me traction/wheel hop problems but this place did. Doesn't matter though, I was and still am a drag noob.

is a turbo diesel all motah????

First to show up on Toyo R888's wins.

So no awd TBSS?

Awd seems to be welcomed. My question is, are the ones bitching, even if the rules were revolved around them, going to show up? Fuck no you're not. You probably have to GPS yourselves to the track.

We usually have a month or two heads up when we do a street tire race here in the upstate and the prize is a burger king crown... i think last time we had like 12 cars enter. we have a no AWD rule and 200 treadwear rule usually.

Awd or 4wd will win.

I dont think the awd/4wd stuff has been the fastest on a hard tire up here. 6.9's/7.0's generally won our races.

So 8.40s need not apply? lol

it was originally a 7.7-8.0 race up here. The best final ever was a C4ZR1 w/ lingenfelter stuff done to it vs purple LT1 car on spray. both ran high 7's a number of times

It should be fine. There is no mention of motor only or 2 wheel drive only. Just drive in the gate hard tires only. Got me a line on a fast Subaru now.lol:bigthumb:

:hysterical::hysterical:

:hysterical:Why? Anything can happen and espicially on street tires at Dorchester. Look on the bright side, first round won't happen till dark and the dew settles..

I need an all season tire shootout. Lol
