actually i did try calling a few times, but would alway ring and ring, sometime be busy, but never got through. thats why i was asking for others as well. but what ever.

took the car down the track twice to just see how it would run.

spun all of first gear with the car bouncing like crazy trying to lock down

second time I tried not to give it so much, just happened to be not enough, car launched great, then bogged down like i didnt give it enough gas when i dropped the clutch. ended that run with an 11.81 car is completely stock so i wasnt expect anything big as it was.

track seems like shit! never gone down it before but just seems like my stock car should have locked down due to the lack of power.

I don’t think any of you actually understand how track prep works…

If they prep the track and all you jackasses with all season tires go dragging water onto the track it was all for nothing.

Edit: Not to mention people with AC on in the staging lanes…I have raced at events like this in Dallas, Waco, NYIRP…If people are dragging water onto the track it doesn’t matter what they do to prep it the only thing that make a slight difference is grouping street tire/imports and cars with slicks in different groups.

didnt use the ac all day and it was to nice out for any water on the tires when i got up to the line, car before me went and they pulled out the mop and started going to town, took a minute, probably the reason the first launch was so horrid.

Good now i dont feel so bad running a 11 flat. lol. I would have expected your car to do a little better.

Also spun pretty bad but thats why i was thinking of trying my luck on a tuesday night.

yeah, not going to spend the money again on this track, i can launch the same on the streets and get a better grip and go. definitely not the best time the car can do. again i know it wont do a whole hell of a lot better, but it should do better than that.

yeamabu I wasn’t addressing you specifically but all these events are like this 0 traction with street tires and they don’t waste time preping the track.

You guys should show up on tuesdays. It’s $20.00 and you get probally 10 runs in. If you lose in a round you can continue running in TT (test/tune).

Yeah, Tim and I wandered around for about 45 mins and all I could think was “douche, douche, tool, cockass, doushe”.

Then I witnessed the mess of rice that seemed to pour into the loop including a completly stock mazda 3 filled with what seemed to be nasty hookerz.

i love the fact that its not people that have the right away there, but the bikers. i think i stopped walking about 5 times just so i wouldnt get hit by a biker flying around the oval at like 25mph or faster.

Yea I love how I’m trying to leave S&R and bikes are passing me around the loop, down the exit, and any and every way possible after that.

Not to mention I wanna throw a steel pole through the spokes of the bikers that insist on revving their engines for no apparent reason but to be loud and obnoxious as they drive by.
