I will be there, and I would think the Fuelman would like to check out another track. 1Tony1 are you in? There is a few North Florida that are fast, hopefully they will come..... I belive the fastest gen1 almost stock Viper will there.

JD is definitely in. I spoke with Martin D and he's in as well. A friend of mine whom none of y'all have met has a 2003 and he'll be there too. And rumor has it that there may be a guest with a super-fast 2003 there as well.

I'm taking that Friday off of work, so if anyone wants to meet earlier for a bite to eat on the way up, I'm all about that.

I plan on being in line early b/c I want to get in and get some early runs in before the big crowds show up.

Who's in???

JD

 

[Cudaman]

What time do the crowds show up? Typically is there many fast cars there on Friday night? Do you know what the forecast is for next weekend?

Cudaman

 

[1TONY1]

I think I will be there but I will not be running my car. It will be in it's autocross mind set

 

[Joseph Dell]

Gate opens at 6. I like getting there around ~5:15 to get in line. That way I can tech and get in a run or two before it gets really busy.

In fact, last time I was up there, there was still I line coming IN to the dragway at 8:30p or 9p.

The more folks that can make it, the better!

I am still on the fence about friday night, but if 1Bony1 is going, I guess I will have to go, so I can heckle the $#!t out of him. I don't know if I will have a car to race or not... still too early for me to say.

 

[Cudaman]

Hecklers R Us....should we gang up on him.

[Dr Roof]

I there is enough action i will stop by before heading to columbus, I wish it was some type of event instead of test and tune!

ANy Heffner Car's Going???

 

[Joseph Dell]

Roof -

If you're in town, I got a place for you ands yours to crash for the night. Does that sweeten the deal enough for you? If not, tell me what we gotta do...

JD

 

[Dr Roof]

Joseph

Is the Drag Racing a Test N Tune night at the track for all car's or is it just for Vipers!

How Crowded will it be???

 

[1TONY1]

Roof......A nine second pass on Saturday will be to late to claim the 1st s/c 9 title

(I would never say that seriously, cause it's very hard to do)

 

[Joseph Dell]

My understanding is that it is a test&tune, but that the VCA has reserved a lane?? Not quite sure how that is going to work.

I'll give Pete (GA VCA prez) a call in the morning tomorrow to get to the bottom of the official status of the test&tune.

Normally, it is a pretty happening event on Friday nights in commerce, GA.

And with the weather getting a little cooler, it should make for some nice runs.

I'll post more info as I get it!

JD

 

[pdmracing]

The friday nite is typical grudge nite action. But we have a lane reserved for us & we can run heads up or any other way you want. You can also enter the friday nite bracket for twice the runs. The budget didnt allow to rent the track just for ourselves. We have over 25 cars that said they will be participating on friday nite.

 

[pdmracing]

Joe Dell is leading the charge! thanks Joe.

 

[Cudaman]

Do we have one staging lane, where 2 Viper run each other or 1 drag lane where 1 Viper runs some other type of car?

Cudaman

 

[pdmracing]

1 lane, viper vs viper

 

[Cudaman]

Are the locals ready for this much Viper action....It would be nice if someone with a digital video camera could tape some of our action.

Cudaman

 

[fuelman]

How long does it take to get from the hotel to the drag track??

 

[1TONY1]

I will be bringing my digital video camera.

 

[pdmracing]

28 miles

 

[Joseph Dell]

I'm thinking about getting together for a quick bite prior to getting in line at the track. Anyone want to meet beforehand for a bite?

[Larry Macedo]

Can someone post directions to the track? When it opens? Where and when you guys are going to converge? Thanks!

 

[Cudaman]

We are trying to put together the full M2 crazy drag racing posse. The ring master is confirmed... Larry Macedo. The rest of the posse: Fuelman is locked in, Cudaman is confirmed, and we are talking to the agent in charge of: cop car driving, sandwich making, street car racer and all around crazy T FAST 4U... Chris, is almost onboard. Sounds wild .... we have a bast together..... ask some of the people from V-10 Nationals.

[1TONY1]

Tackle box ain't coming......he's skeered !!!!

Joseph, That sounds like a good idea.

Want autocross lessons: Look for the 1TONY1 license tag

 

[Cudaman]

1 Tony 1 can they make that autocross more challanging by putting 1/4 mile drag in the middle of the course???

[Cudaman]

If we needed something fast,I would vote for Wendy's.....like to eat lite when drag racing ....helps me from falling asleep at the tree. What does everyone else think.
