A bunch of us went up to the Dragway on Wed. Afternoon for the track rental, heres how I did. First time ever on a Dragway: 60' - 2.19 1/4 - 13.87@101.12 Then I clicked of a hole shit load around that time. All in all it was an awesome day I got 16 runs in and my best is as follows. Remember this was on street tire.  What do you guys think ?? |

Oh, otherwise nice run. Wish you people would do this towards a weekend so I can go. Speaking of which, my g/f has been asking me when the next time I go to an open drag night (to watch). Anyone wanna make a Friday night of it?

I know the R/T sucks but it was a track rental day and they only one run lane at a time. I was just racing the clock so there was no need to make killer R/T. I did cut a .516 R/T on a couple of passes. |

Anyone wanna make a Friday night of it? I'm going on the 14th..I haven't decided if I'm going to race..and I'll be there on the 18th for Fun Ford Weekend, and the 24th, for Import Wars first time I'll have been to NED all season. and I can't believe that people still read this board |

Sounds good, I' d be up for it, but I usually work Friday nights so I'd need to know a little bit in advance.

Great times ;D If people are interested.A bunch of us ussually go on Saturdays.I get around 12-18 runs and the traction is great.The next open test and tune is not until next month  From what I found weeknights suck for traction and how many runs you get. |

sorry for the lateness of this post (it's too bloody hot to be on the computer nowadays), but I was at that private thing!! My buddy brought his T-bird up and was supposed to meet up with a bunch of people from his club....I don't know if they all showed up, but it was a good day for him. It took us about twenty minutes to tie down his battery (which we had overlooked doing previous to getting there), but after that was done he grabbed about 16 runs also. He posted a best time of about 15.72 or something, but he's not done too much to it.

Was he the one in the grennish t-bird that was smoldering the hell out of his street tires in the waterbox on every run. (BTW that does nothing but wearout your tires and make your tires greesy) So how come you didn't take the Foreskin down the track a couple times. I would like to have seen a couple 22.52@48mphs runs. ;D |

No I think it would be 22.52 seconds @ 48mph  My life has been hectic lately. I'm working 60 hours a week, and the only weekend I had off was used for a New York trip over the last few days. Make a meeting date though, and I will do everything in my power to get myself there. |

Too f'n hot to drive anywhere the past 2 1/2 weeks. My car is chugging due to all the heat soak my intake is getting.
I'd like to hit the track sometime in September/October when it cools down into the 50-60's.

The reason why i didn't rock some 20+ second track times is the whole lack of a 4Runner i'm suffereing from. My 11 year old baby threw a rod a couple weeks back and I'm currently carless and very depressed...

If you're talking fast compared to what you've had until now, I've got an old BMX in my cellar I'd let you take for fifty bucks . |
