How's about we get this board going this week with the decision of the 2nd shootout. I was looking at some dates and schedules of tracks. What do we want to do 1/4 or 1/8th?!?!?!? I was looking at doing Greer on the 17th of April. But let's get some input and go from there. Thanks Mike

Hey Mike ......does Commerce require a gage?
BoostedGTA
03-28-2010, 08:54 PM
Commerce is the worst 1/4 mile track in this area... Would much rather do Darlington, Carolina, or the Rock. Haven't tried Zmax yet.
MIKE02TA
03-28-2010, 08:54 PM
If you go below 7.49, yes the do. Might be a little forgiving if you go in the 7.30's but probably no faster.

Would like to do either Carolina or darlington but trying to get a lot of people to do that is like pulling your own teeth,lmao.

If we could all agree in Carolina dragway then I know they are a little forgiving with that stuff. Gone faster than a 7.49 plenty of times down there. But we will see what majority will say.

Darligton or Carolina if we are going to do a 1/4 mile, Commerce has a Orsca event that day. Now if we do a 1/4 mile how many will mak the drive or tow???????????
Herron Performance
03-29-2010, 10:00 AM
I will be driving my stuff.
does it matter if they tow it?
Lets set this up and not change venues this time, that was not anyone's issue but it was a PITA.

Towing anything doesn't matter, was asking not in a smartass way but was asking if a lot of people would drive or tow something any sort of distance To race for this shootout without whinin about it.
And venues changed last time because the track changed their schedule a week before.

4/17 is kind of short notice. im sure there will be no more mods on the mach by then. it would be nice to know the track rules also before going. i know commerce will not let you use a torch to heat the bottle and you have to have a dump tube. and i think 3" studs if you are running slicks. never been to carolina or darlington. how strict are they?

I agree.....we are having 4 of these so maybe we could spread it out a little more. Either way, I'll try my best to make it out there.

Thanks Terry and you know that ain't a bad idea by no means. So let s say April 17th at What track we decide on and set it in stone. Male if you can with or without your car and let have a good time.

Get this back up, looking at Greer on the 17th of April, not unless we want to absolutely do 1/4 mile, it will have to be at darlington because commerce and Carolina have events going on that day. So as of now Greer on the 17th for shootout 2.

Qouted from post I made on S2000 forum that Russ speaks of :
So...let me grasp this concept. Your implying you bought your car because it handles turns well? What are you a bank robber? Im not sure if Im picking up whatever logic you think your putting down. I know Id be pist if my navigation gave me a series of turns as best routes.. FACT fastest way to point A to B is always a straight line

you have no idea what my cars are capable of. remember when this all over that he had me by 200 ci and weighs 500 lbs less than me. and he will still get drug down the track.
I dont think that its right for you to be talking ish about someones car that youve never saw before or know what its capable of. But we will see what happens when this happens. But i dont think your gonna drag that car like you think you are....
but ill give a shout tomorrow.
