Yeah I know its really bad . . . . but it keeps things interesting . . . .
. . . . .I almost hit sandeeps brothers car when we were heading home . . . I punched it in first and when I hit second gear it tried to change lanes on me . .. . I think it just doesnt get along with Hondas :p
NorthernSS 07-26-2004, 01:49 AM I really want to come out to this but I going to Kelowna for this weekend. I have that whole next week off though. Is there any others going on or a schedule that I could see?? Thanks.
93formula 07-26-2004, 02:15 AM you need to get some drag radials man
Muskys SS 07-26-2004, 07:44 PM I'm in!!!!!!!
1quickgt 07-26-2004, 08:04 PM i'll come watch but no point racing...yet
Draco 07-26-2004, 08:42 PM Dave, see if you can beat my 12.85@ 122 :).
If the new NHRA rules allowing "Stock" verts to run 11.50 without a rollbar are in effect, I will probably race

You mast spin as bad as me :D
I did a 12.878 @ 117.12 last year with a 2.251 60 :o
Zedzag 07-26-2004, 10:08 PM If I had a roll bar I'd probably race. I may go and watch.
Tell me more about the possible rule change Craig?
oldschool 07-26-2004, 10:19 PM This rule doesn't include verts...only hard tops.
I should be there racing my TA....although I maynot have the slicks mounted by then. Hopefully though :)

I believe it does include verts.... I will call and ask
EDIT: straight from the NHRA site - they specifically use a vert in an example. http://nhra.com/2004/news/june/062202.html
Mike, you might be out of luck with headers, but maybe that is allowed (as part of the exhaust)
Zedzag 07-27-2004, 03:37 AM Maybe headers would be considered "competition" exhaust. I will eventually put in a roll bar but the rule change could get me on the track a little sooner.
Tw!tchb!tch 07-27-2004, 10:40 AM Maybe headers would be considered "competition" exhaust. I will eventually put in a roll bar but the rule change could get me on the track a little sooner.
Sounds like full exhaust is allowed as long as it exits out back. Nitrous is a no no so we'd have to sneek the bottles in after tech.

Yes there is, you don't know how fast your car is, you should come out and see what it can do no matter what mods you have :)
Camaro ChriSS 07-27-2004, 12:06 PM No rollbar up to 11.5's? No we're talking... :)
ollie-99 07-29-2004, 02:59 PM The new rules, however, apply only to stock OEM-type production vehicles. Once any power adder or performance hardware is used, it then must follow the existing Summit E.T. safety requirements. Otherwise, any pure-stock, street-legal car running 11.50 or slower (example: stock Dodge Viper) would be governed by the proposed new Pure Stock Street Legal rules, providing the vehicle remains completely OEM stock.
So has to be stock
Tw!tchb!tch 07-29-2004, 03:12 PM Nope . . If you read further it says ( exhaust must exit behind the vehicle yadda yadda ) etc and the car must not have a power adder it didnt have when it was new .
John1975 07-29-2004, 03:23 PM Sweet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!
Camaro ChriSS 07-29-2004, 06:09 PM I assume reading the article fully now that adding a cam, etc... or any "performance hardware" puts you immediately in the ET Street section and no longer valid for the pure stock 11.50s. That's how it reads to me, though it is a little grey.
I don't know how they would rate an upgraded pulley - is that not performance hardware? Hope not.
1quickgt 07-29-2004, 08:20 PM Yes there is, you don't know how fast your car is, you should come out and see what it can do no matter what mods you have :)
mmm true maybe i'll try so you guys can ahve a good laugh haha
Tw!tchb!tch 07-29-2004, 08:45 PM They'll never hear my cam muhahaaaa !!
Draco 07-29-2004, 09:02 PM nor mine :)
Tw!tchb!tch 07-29-2004, 09:32 PM nor mine :)
Hey what did you do with your HUGE ASS cam ??
Draco 07-29-2004, 09:51 PM looking to sell it... it wasnt that big!
Tw!tchb!tch 07-29-2004, 11:59 PM I betcha it will sell on ls1tech in a second . Wasnt it a 228 228 TSP cam ??
Camaro ChriSS 07-30-2004, 11:18 AM True. With a high enough idle they probably won't notice.
But wouldn't you think someone MIGHT ask a few questions when you turn a 11.8 at 117.. lol! :cool:
Either way, hopefully they'll just be more flexible with the rules at the track in general, and if you are hitting the high 11's, they won't turn you away. The new ruling may give the techs more flexibility to interpret the rules.
sideways_Into_3rd 08-02-2004, 06:12 AM Interesting !!
too bad Im goin the opposite with with a bone stock car AND a NHRA legal cage !!
Thump911 08-02-2004, 05:33 PM I may go and watch.
Mike, lemme know if you're heading out...this is the first work-free Friday night in ages...do a drive-by my place
Camaro ChriSS 08-03-2004, 07:48 PM too bad Im goin the opposite with with a bone stock car AND a NHRA legal cage !!
Lol!
John1975 08-05-2004, 11:13 AM The weather isn't looking very good.
Tw!tchb!tch 08-05-2004, 11:44 AM The weather isn't looking very good.
Sounds like somebody is backing out . . . . so I declare I win by default. . . . that is all :cool:
Rematch to be in 2007 :D
Elgyn 08-05-2004, 03:51 PM Rematch to be in 2007 :D
This should be good. By then the only places fast enough for you guys will be Texas and Montana.
...I call a road trip for 2007
Camaro ChriSS 08-06-2004, 01:13 AM Sounds like somebody is backing out . . . . so I declare I win by default. . . . that is all :cool:
No picking on my buddy John... :cool:
He and I need to run again too.
John1975 08-06-2004, 10:52 AM yep, I think the races might be a bit closer now that I "adjusted" things. I brought the car in today and my helmet. This rain had better stop!!!!
Tw!tchb!tch 08-06-2004, 02:00 PM A perfect scenario = rain stops at 2:30 - track dries off - nobody shows but us - air is cold - we get 94 runs :D
John1975 08-06-2004, 03:12 PM 94 lol...........you and that number
ps you forgot the word "getting" in your sig
ie. Cobras are for "GETTING" girls
SBainsTA 08-06-2004, 04:13 PM 94 lol...........you and that number
ps you forgot the word "getting" in your sig

Tw!tchb!tch 08-06-2004, 05:55 PM I was wondering when u notice that :D
