Welcome. There are several of us here from the Fort Wayne area. Luke (Teal94z) and Josh (Pnyhntr) post on this site quite a lot, and they have some fast cars.

Teal94Z · 12-21-2002, 12:05 PM

ltwonz · 12-21-2002, 04:56 PM

Brandon that's a nice car you got. I'd like to check it out sometime next spring. Maybe we can meet up a the fort sometime.

Hey guys! Welcome to the board, ltwonz!! Have you been picking on those poor Cobras Brandon? I hope it wasn't a 03-you should know better!!

Alucard · 12-23-2002, 12:10 PM

Sadly, it was not a 03...more like a 98 (the pooch year LOL). Now that i figued out overdrive is bad when going from a roll, i think ill do better next time. Although i do recall skinning that snake off the line....

It can actually be pretty busy and full on a decent weekend. Usually 3-4+ 4th gens, a couple third gens, and quite a few Mustangs. Towards the end of the summer there seemed to be more F-bods out there than the Mustangs!! POS's were all broke! There is also the occasional GN or TTA, and also the usual 60's-70's musclecars. Every once and a while a pack will head out of town to do you know what. You guys from the South Bend area ought to come down and check it out sometime! It's usually a lot of fun.

Dont forget all the ricers that park across the street..hehe, there are a lot of them. Right now there isnt as many people out, of course because winter, but when the weather breaks in a few months, it will be play time again

Brandon, FYI his Cobra bone stock was running 14.1 average at about 100 mph, he had one run when he hooked up at 13.98 @ 101. I think at the track you could take him. However, next time you see him, he will have 4:10's, cold air, and possibly 8 lbs of intercooled vortech boost

hehe. He isnt sure yet what he wants to do. I raced him when I had just exhaust and cold air, and from a roll with my clutch slipping, I took him by 2 cars. Anyway, see you guys later

as for the you know what , are there many fast cars that go out? and does it happen every weekend? just wondering how good the action is. the cops have really been raining on our parade here the last year or two, and only looking worse for this year

Alucard · 12-27-2002, 12:37 AM

There arent alot of fast cars...just mine, luke's, and josh's...haha. Nah there is some good competition around. Alot of ricers though...most of em dont have anything to go, just alot of show. Ive just got an appearence modded *cough cough* Z...heh...gotta love the show look when peeps think the performance is stock.

Actually, yeah there are some fast cars (like 10's), but they are Mustangs. You would have the fastest F-body there if you come down!! I am looking at running high 11's next year, so I am a little faster than the average car there. It is a good time though, and yes, they go out once or twice every night and do the you know what.

chevyguy3 · 12-27-2002, 10:19 AM

doesnt matter to me what kind of cars they are, as long as there is something for me to match up with. heck, maybe ill bring the firebird once, and switch sides and bring the mustang the next

.

think theres anything that shows up out there that is in the 9s?
