Here's a link to the event http://www.importfaceoff.net/

Should be a damn good turn out with more cars then you can shake a stick at. Ive spoke with about 30 on here thats going. I wished i had the EF done so i could see if 9's are there but im in no hurry. Ill play in the DB. And we will have a couple 10 sec cars rolling with us. Good luck everyone!

Good event! It turned out well, there was alot of nice and fast cars there this year. Unfortunately i didnt run a good time in the 4 door teg. The track sucked. I need to get my tuner to raise my two step i was bogging so bad that the car almost stalled on my launch everytime. Then as soon as i built up boost i blew the tires off threw 2nd. Best run was 13.03@110 with a 2.2 60ft.

11-10-2008, 10:36 AM
Had a good time, the guys running the track suck. The track was great at the beginning and then never re prepped the track. I was pointing out oil downs at the starting line and the old guy would clean them up after a couple cars went. Rocks all over it, and they bitched about people standing near the timing boxes all day and they wouldnt block them off or setup tape for people not to cross. Who won all motor, was it the white CRX?

WalkS
11-10-2008, 10:42 AM
I had a blast there also! Huge turnout, and I will be back next year, both IFO's at MMP.

But I was racing in the bracket class, 15.00 and quicker. First round I won, the 09 GTR broke out. Semi-final round I was knocked out, I was closer to my dial in, but lost due to a better reaction time?? WTH, I hate bracket racing...:( Time to build a quicker car for heads up!

Can't wait till next year!

but he damn sure would have. my car was getting faster every pass but i don't think it was gonna pick up four 10th's lol. dang sure wasn't the way i would have wanted to win.



but overall i'm happy, first time at the track with the car on slicks and it ran a 12.65 right off the trailer and got a little faster each pass. i can't really complain i had a great time to just wish i copuld have gotten around and talk to some more people

Yeah he's a pretty cool guy, but he better get up to code if he is going to keep going with the racing. I decided not to protest him and just let it ride because he isn't a jackass.

I want to thank Main Stream Performance for all of their support the past 4-5 years, I don't think I could keep it up without them. The win felt like no other and look forward to going faster and staying competitive.

I gotta thank Josh Green for his help. I leave my car to go to the tower after the rounds and by the time i get back he's already disassembling stuff to inspect the drive line for the next round!!

Very nice turn out. Props to the IFO crew. Thumbs down to the MMP people. The guy running the staging lanes was a idiot. Announcer had a bad attitude and temper. What was up with the 9sec supra running Street and Outlaw class??? And they kept complaining how "We're not gonna turn the lights on!!". And what did they do anyway???

Damn, Matt been practicing on those pro tree's :goodjob: Good turn out and fun day. Track was pretty slick second half. Sucks with the time slips though, they kept getting mixed up so I didn't get one on a few passes. Makes it hard to adjust a car when you don't know how it ran. Anyways, happy that the "ballin EG" did a 11.9 on second pass on slicks. Pretty good for a car built more for road racing.

As for the supra's, there was a white one and a grey one. Both autos and both fast.

The announcer was a str8 ASSHOLE!! I don't blame him getting mad at the people on the wall but he was rediculously rude and mean to racers. Not only did he not state the cars that were running or the times that they ran to the people that couldn't see. He kept reiterating that whether or not it got dark-THE TRACK WAS NOT TURNING ON THE LIGHTS!! HE NEVER THANKED THE SPECTATORS OR RACERS NOR DID HE WARN OF DELAYS FROM BREAKDOWNS. HE SUCKED

THE EVENT SUCKED AS A WHOLE!! NOT A LOT OF FAST CARS. $17 ENTRY FEE FOR SPECTATORS. AND NORMALLY W/ A RACE TICKET YOU GOT A FREE ENTRY TICKET FOR A GUEST-NOT THIS TIME. HIGH FEES AND LOTS OF SLOW CARS. NOTHING SPECTACULAR AT ALL!!

I had a really good time. It was great to see so many out considering the economic year we've had. I'm just glad the race went on. Importshowdown did not have a fall race so this was the first race in a while regionally. The all-motor class was very nice with very fast cars in my opinion. The 12 second Integra and 11 second CRX were definately sights to see and it was cool to see so many fwd class entries. The GTR was nice and it was cool to see Matt (spoolin) get a win. The slow cars are definately getting faster however; not as many 16 and 17 second cars, but quite a few 12,13, and 14 second cars. Thanks ImportFaceOff for the event and we'll see you next year!
