I'll video it for you. What part of West Ashley do you live in? I'm in Drayton.

Ballaholic29414 03-04-2010 03:16 PM

About a mile from Citadel Mall

Derek 03-04-2010 07:20 PM

I,m gonna try and head out there I'll shoot if I recognize the car.

chrisheltra 03-04-2010 07:31 PM

I have a decent vid camera that I used to take to the track too but its to hard to race and play camera man at the same time.

I was thinking about getting one of these though.

Hours are 1to 6 will stay longer if we have a big crowd

Derek 03-04-2010 07:45 PM

Thats a pretty cool setup ,but if you wanted a little cheapr option all cams now have those little tri pod screws in the bottom. you could do a wind shield mount suck cup "all over ebay". I was gonna weld a bolt on the rear seat bar on the cage so i could mount one of mine.

Problem is I dont want to suction cup my expensive camera to the outside of a vehicle. This is a fairly cheaper alternative to replace if it gets crushed.

Derek 03-04-2010 08:30 PM

LOL I was talking about the inside!

chrisheltra 03-04-2010 08:34 PM

Haha this thing can go on the outside.

EDMUND FLASH 03-05-2010 02:10 AM

Illusions 03-05-2010 08:12 AM

We hopefully will make it to one of those tracks. we need shake down runs to make sure all the bolts were put back in and tightened.

chrisheltra 03-05-2010 08:32 AM

If im not working on the truck Ill be going to Bowman.

Ballaholic29414 03-05-2010 09:26 AM

I wish you luck. Hopefully we don't have any either.

Derek 03-05-2010 11:17 AM

just found out bout carolina might go there.

bigboy7742 03-05-2010 11:25 AM

Yeah I was hoping Bowman was opening on Sunday since a lot is going on this Saturday

bigboy7742 03-05-2010 11:33 AM

And when do Bowman open back up on Friday nights

Ballaholic29414 03-05-2010 04:21 PM

Dont go to carolina unless you mean business because you prob will only get to make 2 passes. Last time I went there to TEST during a grudgefest I was in staging for 2 hours at a time.

bigboy7742 03-06-2010 02:25 PM

You want to go where the action is it wasn't gong to hurt Bowman to open tomorrow instead of today this is a business and I think he would get more car tomorrow with so much going on today there may have been some racing that didn't happen today at jackson I love Bowman track I come every week just not this year yet so I want the best for it

Ronald 03-06-2010 07:39 PM

We are open Sunday 3/7/2010

chrisheltra 03-06-2010 07:43 PM

LXtasy 03-06-2010 08:38 PM

Illusions 03-06-2010 09:46 PM

Looked good.

Illusions 03-06-2010 10:05 PM

I think the 8.8 swap helped us. also going from 3.42 gears to 4.10's

Ballaholic29414 03-06-2010 10:29 PM

My engine swallowed a valve and cracked the block. Thanx to the staff and Bowman Dragstrip for pulling me back to my trailer.

I don't post that junk. j/k I was hoping to see you get a little faster and I think you were on a good pass until it stumbled.

Same here man. I have 15.1 compression and the valve hit the spark plug and it broked the valve and it fell on top of the pistion and that was the end of it. Good thing we do our own work so ityl save me alot of money.
