www.newenglanddragway.com It's in epping NH

ya i posted this a couple weeks back....i want to get a bunch of guys and go up together

if i can get it off work then i will go
and if my car is running right

As the sponsor of the event - I'd like to welcome everyone up to a fun day!:thumb:

I'll see what's happeing that day. I'll try to go

Hmmmmm. The night before graduation I fon't know if I should go:think: Eh what the hell i'll try my best to be there.

I'll be going with atleast 10 other F-body owners.

Are there a lot of V6ers up there that night?? I don't want to get there and run against nothing but Z's and T/A's

Well im a V6er and im goin up if u wanna line up against me all night lol

Well boys, looks like "The Tomato" will make it to NED on June 5 :D

Thought I was going to have to run the LS-1 but just got back from my latest beat run and "warp speed" was achieved :D:D

Pulled good.

On a funny note, when I was about to do my beat run and check on my latest fix I ran into the chick that I bought "The Tomato" from 6 years ago........She's like "that's my car".......we chatted for a minute and I told her that the car has had a rough life since it met me and I blew up the motor 3 years ago......she was like "it's loud"......we chatted another minute and I asked if I could pull out first as I needed to do a beat run and check on things and I wailed on it and it pulled hard and then she cought up to me at the traffic light and I stuck my head out the window and gave her the thumbs up and she shook her head and gave me the thumbs down with a smile.......we waved and went our seperate ways.

Marc
P.S. She still looked rather shaggable :D

I hope to be there. Anyone here from the Portsmouth NH area???

I'll be there, wouldn't miss it. pray for a nice day or we'll all be shivering in september again.

graduation is the night before....i have graduation parties all that day...but maybe i'll go up if i can find a driver :D

You would rather drink then go see hundreds of f-bodies ? :no:

if it was graduation then ya...you can see fbodies anytime you only graduate once.

well what times this shindig goin down? the party isn't till 8ish....

i see it is 9AM to 5PM....i think i'll be makin a trip...too bad my TA isn't registered :(

Looks like I will be there. Hopefully the car will be running. It dies a couple of weeks ago and I have been gone for ten days but Monday will get into it again. It has only run right for ne weekend so far and with a points day on SUnday I could sure use the seat time to see if I remember how to drive. :) Is there a payout for the winner? Can we enter both classes?

:bow:

The post over at www.ls1tech.com is much more colorful and entertaining ;)

Marc

7-8 pages of lollygagging and testosterone talking. Lets see how they fare on race day. ;)

The BS stops when the green flag drops.
I was hoping to be there for this but I need to do a few things to it this weekend. Things like swap converters and other such menial tasks.

I'll be there.....see you guys there.:)

Installing another new optispark and cable this afternoon, hoping the thing will stay running for more than five minutes.

Who's up and ready for some drag racing????

Off to the track shortly :D

Marc

I will be there after 12:30 or so, and I would like to meet other members. License plate is LAST-Z and it an 02 pewter z28 with round tail lights. My name is mike, yell at me I dont care, hope to see you all there!!!!

im on my way up now

Ended up with a non-functional car and had a borrowed V6 third gen with 120,000 miles that didn't want to hook up. Very frustrating. However, my car is now supposed to be running so I'm off to get it. Anyone want to go back and run points tomorrow?

Marc, I saw you win first round against Kevin on a double breakout. Did I hear 10.77 or something?

The event was awesome! The 78 hemi truck was absolutely insane, he was pulling 7's. Saw lots of nice f-bodies. Glad I could go.

i think i ran the slowest times thier

but it was fun

I don't remember seeing your car, what times did you pull? I don't think I saw any LT1 T/As race.

today was awsome...it was my first time up running the quater...i was the Silver 96 Camaro...made it to he second round of elimination...then i got bet by the black SS...he talked how he couldnt cut the light better than 1.xx ...ya that was BS he cut a .536...lol awsome day tho

Technically it was a 10.72 @ 125.4 w1.49 smack you in the ass 60 ft :D

It did go a little better later on ;)

Ran a 10.58 @ 127.96 w/ 1.511 sixty ft (on a 10.60 dial).
Ted, you'd be proud of me, I raced a guy on a 15.65 dial and the words "never lift" entered my mind (I did think of you and said **** it!!) as I went screaming by him at 128 mph :D:D:D

Finally getting on the puter, my buddy and I started belting back some beers after we got home around 6:30

With 60 ft times like those I suddenly don't mind changing tires as much :D

Marc I just wanna say congrats on some AWESOME runs today, all kidding aside you deserve it and its a long time coming. Brag away baby. The f@cking thing was a rocket all day. :)

well my best run last year was a 13.69 with a 2.0 60' and today i went a 13.7 with a 1.93 60'.....i don't get it and my mph went down from a 101 to 97:confused: marc good for you...that thing was a rocket today....nice talkin to you and g/l with your car....you give me hope with the lt1:bow:

DJ!!! Hey I think you did good for the yaer and mileage, plus in test and tune that I was runnin they kept dumpin **** on the track, putting us up after 8 sec cars that launch so hard fuel dumps out the filler in the back!!! Anyways I just had a good day, it was the cars first day at the track I should have left after my first pass 13.2 because the second run i forgot how to shift (Dumbass) and hit a 13.4. Good baseline...now its time to plaaaayy!!!

It was good seeing other members at the track, hope to meet up again soon!

Props to all you guys runnin under 12. It was a great day to run, hope everyone had a good time!!

Which car ended up winning the whole thing? I left at 3.

EDIT : Did anyone see the camaro shift into reverse half way down the track? :lol:

Which one, there were two. The Red SS was me, and there was a pewter Z( I won't menetion his name). I hit reverse on the 2-3 shift, and still did a 13.4 @ 91 mph, w/2.0 60', on the run. My best for the day was 13.1 @ 108 w/2.1 60'.

He didnt actually hit reverse,it happens on the six speed cars alot when going to 4th. I have done it as well, doesnt exactly hit reverse but it can chew the synchros. He ended up going to the final 6 before losing and was running 12.3's with cam only car.

Way to go Marc!!! :bow: :cool: :D

Glad to hear the Tomato's finally getting sorted out.

Let me know the next time you're going to the track.

Joe went to the last 2. Did he win? who was he up against? I left before the last races.

Kataklysm, What did you run?

Joe knocked me out in the final four as I couldnt launch the car after the clutch CRAP! Hey went against some kid with an obvious bracket car with a 15.7 dial in. He ended up winning but losing to the firebird after he beat joe though. I felt bad beating out the current points leader in round 6 though. The kid had a 14.50 dial in and he hit like 14.51 and a .499 light, he red lighted. Talk about skill :bow: My clutch went up on the launch and I ended up winning the round...no other reason other then I got lucky

i was just doing the test and tune so if you were actually racing then you wouldn't have seen me

I had a much better day today. My car was fixed last night and I made it to the finals but broke out by .02... Oh well, at least I am about 33 points closer to first place. :)

I was just watching yesterday, I got a big exhaust leak and its embarassing to drive with how it sounds. I have the EGR fitting on the header blocked the little rig up I made fell off :mad: I just fixed it today, I'll be up there on a street night (wednesday/friday) hopefully I'll get some traction this time.

Great to see that everyone (mostly) had a good time! Can't wait to do it again next year! I caught a few of you racing - but I was busy keeping other things going... :)

Here's a video of the 11.06 pass against Noyzee's twin turbo.
