Should I go?

PittSpeed Automotive
1

Ive been wanting to take my car to the track for a while now. I know its not fast, but its more a curiosity factor. The thing is, its a 98 buick regal LS (NA) and as soon as i pull in everyone will be like wtf? It will prob run mid 15s. I know people will ask me why i brought it since i dont really have time to back it up.

I plan on doing a few more things to it and i really would like to see what kind of difference it made.

So the question is…
Should I go, or save myself the humiliation of draggin the granny car :smiley:

do it, fuck all of the other people. Who cares what they think.

I will meet you there with my stock crown vic lx with 2.73 gears. I should be in the mid 16’s to 17 second range. :smiley:

the whole idea of going to track is to have fun. who cares what others think

first time i went my distributor cap developed a crack on the way to the track. i didn’t care i was so excited to go that i ran anyways. ended up going 20.1 lol
fixed the cap and went back next week and ran mid 14s!!
Go and have fun

haha ya thats what i was thinking. If the rains holds off, anyone going to PRP tonight?

5

Just run what you brung. :madfawk: fuck what they say.

LIke Jeff said, tracking is just for fun. There are some people that get all super competitive, look at you funny, talk shit, but who cares they’re :greddy2: anyway

6

people run cars far worse than that there

also you will get experience at the track thats the most important part

sorry to tell you but the track is rained out

i know there are alot of haters around and i for one have gotten mad at the track waiting for alot of 15-18 second cars to make their passes but i for one am lucky enough to have a car that i can take to the track and keep clean all the time cause i don’t use it as a daily driver and am fortunate to have other vehicles that i own. what i’m trying to say is just go and have fun. it is such a rush to go racing and i’m sure you’ll be hooked. if i didn’t have a fast car i would still be drag racing my 15-18 second daily driver. don’t worry what other people think, go and have a blast.

also most people at the track will help and give great advice.

Man who gives a fuck, really.

I have a 4 door Cavalier and I wanna start autocrossing it.

If it’s fun and it makes you happy, who can you let tell you any different?

11

ya i go to the track almost everyweek. I just love cars. I usually just start talking to people i dont even know about their cars. Everyones pretty cool about everything. I know ive talked to some of you before but you prob dont know it.

Why the hell is the track rained out??? It hasnt rained for at least 7 hours. They cant prep it again?? Errrr

12

Forget what others think about your car. As long as YOU enjoy doing it, thats all that matters. I drive a Hyundai Tiburon for christ sakes, I mean come on, you can’t get worse then that.

13

I made it out once with my GP. Fuck it, its a good time no matter what you end up running.

14

experience, is key
that way when you do end up with a faster car you can drive it well, I should have taken my jeep to get used to the lights and the experience

15

NA L36? I’ll have some parts for you soon! :blue: I got a throttle body and rockers I can’t use no more

you wanna know mods me or sleeper is the one to ask

16

I used to take my Cavalier up there a lot. I run mid-low 15s, but who cares…it’s a fun time.

17

nice

i might already have a set of rockers and springs coming my way
looking into an HV3 too. You wouldnt want to help me install that would you :smiley:

TB would be nice too. Cash is a little tight at the moment

oh and if you have a tuner i will love you forever lol. im getting my pcm soon and i need someone to give me a case learn

18

yeah I could help you with the install

I’ve got a tuner but only if you’ve got a laptop :smiley: I use my pc now and it’s not very moble

19

Its vista though i hope the program will still work. Well ill let you know when i get the pcm. HV3 may not be till fall. Ill try to find someone who did a top swap and maybe i can pick one up used. Keep an eye out for me

20

I’m doin the top swap cam install sometime within the next few weeks. Its been a long time coming, I started gathering parts over 5 months ago and now over 2 grand later I’m nearly finished
