No, not yet. Talked to Turk again yesterday. My turbo’s aren’t in and the track walk was canceled. Apparently the owner of PID/Campbells airport was out of town. I was actually more concerned about my HT60’s than the next scheduled date for the walk so I don’t have any more info. Turk assures me that the FLD’s will be held there this Summer.

$30 is a bargain when you compare it to a citation for street racing…

Yep. Racing on Highway = $275.00 and possible license suspension.

Ah, I stand corrected. I never got one, just going off what a friend told me. Maybe he meant $275 before all of the other ticket fees.

Has anyone heard any news about Flashlight Drags lately? Or PID? I’ve sent a couple emails to the Flashlight Drags address but as usual have never ever gotten a response. You’d think if they’re interested in support they might actually reply to an email once in a while.

Yes, and it still has “TBD” in a number of dates, no information about the locations, nothing about PID, generally nothing whatsoever. When I talked to them at World of Wheels they had kind of indicated that something would be coming out soon. Well, it’s April. Nothing. Beyond that, if they’re going to just ignore all the email they get and never respond, take the friggin address off the site and just be up front about it. I’m trying to decide about some travel. Ohio is a non-starter for FLD, so me and some others would like to get a better idea of the schedule or we’re just blowing off FLD. They make a big deal about how the government is shutting them down, but then they just ignore people wanting information.

That’s great for you. It’s over an hour and a half drive for me. I’m not building this car to drive it to a sanctioned strip more than a 3 hour round trip drive and not being able to trailer it (FLD rules). If I’m going to do that, I can go to PRP. If both Waynesburg and PID are out, then FLD is a non-starter for my group. Plus, even though I specifically asked about it at WoW, no news about how and what rules will apply when FLD is held at a venue that publicizes that they go by NHRA/IHRA rules.

1 not a sanctioned track and if you show up before fld starts you can park your trailor and unload it, on the days the fld is there the regular bracket racing is going to start early so just show up during that,

and whats with the comment about porn, fuck you
