So...Portland international raceway...
good track? good track prep?


july 4th it shows them as being open for late night drags and i was thinking (cause i actually have that day off!!!!) of coming down and doing some runs then anyone who wants to join can go light off some boom boom :P


what say you southerners


only thing from me is after the racing and what not i would want to see if i could crash at someones place down there...but that leaves me open for a possible cruise afterwords


let me know guys!!!!

 

I am going to see if I can actually launch this sucker.

 

haha, only way to know for sure is to practice at the track

 

I know it will run a good time with the right launch

 

once you get it off the line and manage to not spin through the gears its just about going as fast as possible

you have a nice clutch yes???? should be pretty easy to feather it out if its pretty stout

 

255 40 18's up front Eagle GT All season high performance 3 weeks old
that be a dual plate clutch

 

should launch just fine with some feathering

 

I know it doesn't hurt to want. I believe from talking to other similiar cars SRT 4 in particular it should run low 12's or so. Proof will be in the pudding.

 

with some practice that is what i would expect you may need some drag radials or slicks though lol

 

Im always there, and i also just got a set of 225 40 18 goodyear eagles there really good

 

nice!!!!

 

tom come on down man!

back like 7-8 years ago, the illegal racing import crowd would start the night off at PIR, then meet more people at the Home Depot lot just down the street from the track, and head out to the industrial area's in vancouver for more illegal drags or elsewhere on crazy fun cruises. lookin back on it we were stupid kids. but i don't regret any of it one bit.

i want my damned 2.4 mani installed and dyno tuned again!!! finals week needs to be over!!!! then i can start saving for the TK. :-P

 

sweet deal
could you swing us crashing at your place maybe?????? we need somewhere to stay hahahaha
and ya..they used to do that here...we used to do that up here...was alot of fun..but no more lol

 

well i live with the parents, but yes we could do that. in my room i could set up somethin. unless scag can do better.

 

true true

 

most likely I will be out at the coast but if I don't that would be a fun little drive and a new track to me...

 

it's a good track.

the registration is good for a year(so if u got it now, it'd be good till this date next year) for like 30 bucks i think(already have mine). and 20 bucks to race the whole night.

 

tech card is 25 and registration is 10

 

right, so once you pay the $35 in one time fees, you pay $20 more to race. lol

 

whatever lol
i just hope its a better track then ours
who else wants to go race and then july 4th it up afterwards
and who wants to let me crash at their place

 

im also down for this excursion sounds fun. and ill just get some flea bag motel and pass out there..lol or search before hand for a small campground not to far away and pitch a tent...lol

 

I have an acre plenty of outdoor space and lots of parking. The house is in the process of remodel so pretty screwed up. If anybody wants to camp etc no problems. 30 min drive from PIR (Portland Int raceway)

 

we could all camp at toms (hes a cool guy) (ssyeller)
i have a nice big tent and if we went there before we could liten up there, setup a tent and such, and then head out to the track

 

sounds like a good time to me. lol
