Street tire shoot out at Greer Dragway $300 to win with free entry!!
 
Hey everyone. I am Charles from V8muscle.net and a long time member here on this board. We had our first Street Tire shootout last night at Greer Dragway and it went very well. I just wanted to make sure that everybody knew about the races and were able to make plans to participate. We are having a race the last Thursday of every month all year long. The rules are super simple with the main one being a street type radial with a treadware of 200 or higher. Entry fee is free with the regular test and tune admission and the payout is $300. You can visit V8muscle.net for a full list of all the rules.

Shawn Abner won last nights race in a C5. If you check the website for all the rules you will see we have a no "back to back" winner clause so he has to sit out the next race. The guy who ran second with an 8 flat in his Grand National is pumped about his chances of winning next month.

Sounds a REAL street car race. Kudos.

Edit: I got my threads mixed up.

8.0 IN THE EIGHTH on street tires? hmmm

ForceFed4g63 06-01-2012 03:43 PM

Damn that's all it takes? I might have to slap on some radials and go out there lol.

Id be lucky to run 9.0's on my street tires.

spdracr0 06-01-2012 05:40 PM

Can I just put my drag radials on the front?

BigdaddyDupree 06-01-2012 05:41 PM

I bet i could run 8.0 on street tires on motor

spdracr0 06-01-2012 05:44 PM

If I come up 8.0s aint gonna get it, better step it up...prolly take me 300 in gas to get there and back..

BigdaddyDupree 06-01-2012 05:47 PM

word is foose is coming. that way the lightning boys wont show. lol

spdracr0 06-01-2012 05:53 PM

BET THAT!!

spdracr0 06-01-2012 05:56 PM

I have been very low 7s and fit the rules. The problem is just how much power you can actually put on a mediocre tire

spdracr0 06-01-2012 06:01 PM

And I think I can go well into the 6s with nt05s on the 18 inch wheels..we need a class like this closer, I think it would be fun. It would however tear the track up pretty good I imagine..

Hes already tried it and felt less than comfortable going down the track on a street tire which I dont blame him a bit. I do too.
