The August 26th street legals are the last of the street legals that go until 11. In Sept the burn out competitions start in the evenings due to dew point. So how about we get a good turn out since I'm giving some pretty good notice this time! We had fun with just 3 last time. Lets have more fun with a better turn out!

Count me in! I haven't taken my girl on the track yet. But she is ready to go! She begs me to launch her at every red light...LOL! I do take on my bf's SSTC every couple of days and smoke him so I have been able to keep my girl satisfied till we hit the track!

Is there anything else I need to do to prep to do other than emptying my antifreeze?

You can read up on it here.

wasnt there 4 cobalts there on friday? a black 4 door... a white one... and a yellow one.. and then my black 2 door yes?

but hell yeah ill be there.

superbug

ahh you were the guy with the black and red rims who didn't bother saying hi to us

Cam g

hey hey now... you didnt bother to say hi to me either

i did however talk to the guy in the white balt..

Lino

You don't have to do anything to the car. Our cars have a factory sealed cooling system so no need to flush it out.

Just make sure you wear closed toe shoes (runners are best), long pants, and at least a t-shirt.

That was me in the white balt.

Thanks Lino. I did read up on that last night and figured out I didn't need to drain. A couple more questions from the rookie racer... I am pretty sure I need to wear a helmet since my car is supposed to do better than 13.99 but I have not tested it to be sure. Do you wear one? And what class do they put our cars in?
Thanks

Lino

My best run so far is 14.088 at 100mph after 20+ runs. I doubt you'll be able to run faster then 13.9 your first time out. It is a good idea if you have the money/access to one cause if you do you'll need it plus if you want to bring a passenger down the track they have to wear one.

We can be classes as domestic or sport compact, but I've always gone into sport compact.

Brother in-law and I might come out, he'd bring his Pulsar GTI-R

I just saw that The "Great Canadian VW show" is in Langley this weekend and they are having their drag night that night. They are going to have their own class and everything so this might cut down your passes massively. Just a heads up.

problem is that after this friday the burnout competitions start again which also massively cut down your passes

Hey just because you cant drive, doesnt mean she can't either A tuned TC is good for mid 13's easily if you can launch it. I will probably be there friday, i work until 6 or so, plenty of time. Wont be racing the truck, already got my baseline runs, may do a run later before the season ends if i get my intake in time. But i will make a point of bringing my camera and try to get some videos of you guys running.

_UnLiMiTeD_

Wont be too bad if history repeats itself, they will take up a lot of parking spaces, but 90% of them never left their parking spot the whole night

sublimegirl

Thanks for the vote of confidence. CamG has said he would win the first race against me. I hope I am up for the challenge and dont embarrass myself too badly. I am pretty worried about grinding from second to third. Hope to see you there and finally meet. Havent seen your truck around town at all. And I bomb around all the time. Have you seen me around town?

_UnLiMiTeD_

No, i was surprised too i havent seen any TC's rolling around town but these days the truck spends a lot of time at my works parking lot. All the damn senior men on holidays, working a ton. Be nice to meet you though, a few of you guys that are coming i have never met. Should be fun

Now i wonder if i can sneak my truck over to the other side... probably not with that vw meet going on.. grr

Cam g

If we throw some tools in your truck box we can say u r bringing tools and stuff for one of us.. No?

StruttinSoul

There can be a pit car and truck lol.

I'll throw a tool box in my trunk to get to the other side, don't think i'm going to run before my trip to calgary.

_UnLiMiTeD_

Maybe, never tried lol

_UnLiMiTeD_

Well no truck for me, damn body shop still has it for the weekend, I'll still be coming, just have my pos corolla courtesy car

StruttinSoul

Lol you going to run it?

Cam g

He better

sublimegirl

What time are you heading down there?

StruttinSoul

Don't think i'll be making it, I have to work a little tonight.
