[NewGen33]

[Big J]

you guys missed the test and tune earlier in the month, have fun in the tech lines...

[Big J]

you should defiantly come out, lots of fun, lots of runs

[slostang]

does anyone that is going want to meet at the wendys across the street and cruise in together?

[03RCode]

May just have to make this.

[jumpin800agl]

I won't be making it this Friday, but thinking about showing up for the next one. I am contemplating running my car. I don't think I will do that well in the 1/8th mile against the AWD crowd. I pick up speed in the back of the 1/4.

[slostang]

^^^ there will be rwd cars there as well, dont worry

[**ROACH**]

i would come but i'll be stuck at work

i went a couple times last year imports not to big up there mostly domestics

[slostang]

^ thats why I'm trying to get imports involved.

[jumpin800agl]

^^^ there will be rwd cars there as well, dont worry
how do they break down the classes? Are AWD imports grouped in with us or what? I remember when this thing first kicked off they just did imports in one group and same for domestics and at end of night the top from each ran.

[slostang]

I'm not sure how they break it down. check the link on page UNO.

[slostang]

btw, where do you stay in griffin? I'm all over griffin nearly everyday.

I live near the Fayette County line. I work right across from Truett's Grill in the Wal-mart shopping center at the Army Recruiting Station. My Z is parked out front all the time.

[stillaneon]

Umm last year they started running a Turbo Class and an N/A class, I will find out from my boss. He is having meetings with them today....

sounds like you have a tough decision on your hands. beer (from graduation partys) or burnouts. phuck it just bring beer to the track.

[OUTLAW]

wht time does it start?

[whatever210]

^ i believe its from 4 to 11? correct me if im wrong.

[teh_mugen18]

how many runs could an individual run per night, on average?

[slostang]

gates open at 4 for racers, 6 for spectators I think, and I would say you could get a good 8-10 runs in per night minimum.

[slostang]

I just herd on the radio that there will be a bikini contest, car show , and a spl stereo competition. $15 to get in and run your car, $7 to just get in.

[jumpin800agl]

I had a good time tonight. I got a lot of runs in. I entered the King of the Street competition but was eliminated by a 1966 mustang, due to me missing 2nd gear. I pulled back to his door by the end of 1/8th.:ninja: Will definitely be coming back out for some more racing.

[slostang]

^ hope everyone enjoyed it tonight! did anyone see that red dodge colt hatch beat that blue viper? I lol'ed hard!

[jumpin800agl]

^ hope everyone enjoyed it tonight! did anyone see that red dodge colt hatch beat that blue viper? I lol'ed hard!
he got beat several times. I wanted to run the EVO just to see if I could hang in the 1/8th with the AWD. He was launching really soft though so I don't think he would have kept up.

[eg mike]

Saw some nice hatches and teg out there tonight

who owns that white integra omg that thing is clean as ****!

[slostang]

whoever was in that silver 4dr 96-99 civic with the b18 was just acting like every pass was a burnout contest. lol

[slostang]

and its always nice when people race on the track, not streets.

[SiRed94]

yeah i had a great time out there tonite... i was lined up with the black viper and the blue one but they kept pulling them off to the side and making me run other imports.... I was lol'ng watching the video of the drop top, caged crx walking the black viper....

hahah yeah... I only pulled out of the line once... after I raced the white mustang... because I blew a hole in one intercooler couplers while I was racing him... then I wrapped duct tape around it and ran the rest of the nite on like 6 psi... but I'm replacing that rubber bull**** coupler I had on there with a silicone one tomorrow so I can get back out there for the competition....
