View Full Version : Late notice Firebird meet Dec. 2nd
OniMirage 12-02-2005, 02:11 AM So the idea has been tossed around for about a week now but who is actually going ... ?
While I most likely won't race I will have my cam ready for some pic taking as well as my miniDV cam to get some vids
1. OniMirage (Eric)

97cavie24ls 12-02-2005, 02:36 AM ill be there
korax123 12-02-2005, 10:03 AM Ill be racing also with my Silver Redline....my wife might make a couple passes with it also...so if there are a few low 16 high 15 passes thats why. My previous best was 15.039@94 so im shooting for a 14.8 today. My wife will prob ride in the car with me and take video...it would be nice if you could video the runs outside the car and i will do the inside. Then I could put the vids together that would be sweet.

PS. Do any of you have girlfriends or wife that will be coming with you. It would be cool if you did so my wife would have another girl/woman to talk to. If not its ok though.

BullDog71ss 12-03-2005, 12:57 AM Very good night at Firebird guys, I had a lot of fun just watching this time.
Cobalt_Supercharged also cut a kick ass time for his first night out in his stock ss/sc...14.7XX @ 97XX mph! Not bad at all.

1:
R/T: .936
60': 2.579
1/8: 9.892 @ 75.17mph
1000': 12.703
1/4: 15.113 @ 93.39mph

I'll get them scanned when I can. I don't remember who I raced the first run. Second run was against a WRX w/ exhaust. I won! OniMirage has video to prove it. Third run was against Korax. He has in car video of that run. It was a blast.
Thank you everyone for showing and being as cool in person, as on the boards.
OniMirage 12-03-2005, 02:39 AM cobalt supercharged sure did a great job for his first time out to the track maybe next time I will get in on it if my gf can record
in car video?????????? did he have some kinda stabilizer mount for the dash??????????
Cobalt_Supercharged 12-03-2005, 02:41 AM No, his wife filmed from the passenger seat.
OniMirage 12-03-2005, 02:44 AM how the hell did that happen????????????? i thought you couldnt run with another person in the car specially since the form only lets you put one name for the car ... oh well either way thats cool as hell gotta see that vid ... currently im playing with the idea of making a mount that will fit to the rear view mirror since well it kinda doesn't get used
Cobalt_Supercharged 12-03-2005, 02:53 AM Yeah you can have a passenger. Actually she made a pass or two also.
That Sentra that ran 18's was a rental. :lol: That's why they were burning the tires so much trying to stage.
mchat 12-03-2005, 10:57 AM Passengers are allowed unless you're running quicker than 14.000
korax123 12-03-2005, 12:45 PM We both signed up as drivers...i will post the video later on today. My car just doesn't seem to ever run good. Crappy Saturn I am still blaming it on my Fram Air Filter lol

OniMirage 12-04-2005, 11:58 PM grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr ... so I go to fry's electronics today to pickup the iEEE card for my computer and as always fry's lets me down by selling me a product that doesn't work /sigh so I will go tomorrow again and pickup a new replacement to get some video online of the races

With a store that big, you'd think that by at least dumb luck you'd run into someone that almost knows what they're talking about...
phxSS 12-05-2005, 07:54 PM No girlfriend, sorry. :(
Haaaaa Haaaaaa (Nelson laugh)

gonzo 12-06-2005, 12:03 AM Hey, when are you guys going out again? I've been to Firebird a few times, but haven't raced yet.
Cobalt_Supercharged 12-06-2005, 12:10 AM My dad's friend just bought an SRT-4 and was talking about maybe the 2 of us go to Firebird. Not sure if I want to do it or not. I don't like to abuse my car, and well racing isn't the least stressful thing on a car's drivetrain.
OniMirage 12-06-2005, 12:22 PM With a store that big, you'd think that by at least dumb luck you'd run into someone that almost knows what they're talking about...
seriously /sigh ... well went back and got a ads tech firewire controller and it turned out to be a texas instruments brand so im like whoa wtf ... needless to say it now works so I will try and work on the vids now that I am able to import vids ^^
Cobalt_Supercharged 12-09-2005, 01:16 AM Here is OniMirage's video from Firebird thread.
