I was switching back to my street tires when the lights were going out. My dad found that pretty funny. But like i have seen in the past when the brackets and kodfwm is done it starts to slow way down but still had fun. Thanx again brooks99 Mustang Project JSTA2V

had a good time. i wonder if anyone was thinking the way i was. i took my time all night just hanging cause i was thinkin we had to 12. they closed early cause there werent alot of cars in the staging lanes and i wonder if more peeps would have headed up to the lanes if they knew there was less time than they might have thought. had fun none the less and i agree it was kinda nice not waiting an hour to get to your car thru

Appreciate it x 1000, thanks to you and a bunch of the others I got to skip some of the learning curve putting OJ together. Took 10 months of gathering parts and cash, but it all paid off being out there with a bunch of friendly people racing and having a good time. The crowd was nothing like the typical kdale crowd! Going to see what I can do to get a 6.9x pass, thinking anti-roll bar, a little more seat time, maybe some tuning, and correct psi in the slicks!Originally posted by turbostang View PostYou guys are very welcome, it was good to see everyone again - and meet some new faces, James. That car is running good man.
They closed earlier than anticipated becuase of how we (DFWMustangs) normally operate. Historically we have a strong turnout and a lot of passes throughout the middle of the 'event' and towards the end of the night the lanes are EMPTY, and the track is going away faster and faster.. All that coupled with having a full staff sitting around doing nothing - it's a waste of money for them to keep it 'open' for 'nothing'..They did ask me if we wanted to keep running, or shut 'em down at 10P - I told them, if there's no passes happening, to shut them down. When I turned and looked the last few times, there was 2 cars in the lanes one time, and 1 car the next. Not to mention, the wind turned from a decent tail wind to a pretty strong cross wind, not the best racing conditions.
Someone actually stopped me in the staging lanes at about 10P and said, "I thought it was open till 12!!" As I turned and looked at the EMPTY staging lanes, I said there's no one running!! He came back with, "if I would have known it was closing at 10, I would have stayed home"

Yeah I think You and I ran on that last pass. Good run. I wish I would have left on full boost like my other passes but the tree fell before I could get it built up. lolOriginally posted by SICK240 View PostHad a great time, just wish i would of got the right psi in the drag radials sooner than the last pass. Oh well didnt break anything always a plus.03 Dark Shadow Grey Mach1

No just 6's... I guess some of the people I ran against were just slower so it made my car look a lot faster. IDK It doesn't matter I'm getting one built as soon as JamesB can get me in.Originally posted by FRANCISCO308 View PostThey never told me anything about my cage. Maybe you ran way to fast.. 5's ?03 Dark Shadow Grey Mach1

I almost stopped and talked to you when you were by the snack bar, but you were in mid-conversation with someone. I really like your car, it's slick as hell.Originally posted by SICK240 View PostHad a great time, just wish i would of got the right psi in the drag radials sooner than the last pass.

Yes it was a good run, clean car. I was able to squeeze in 1 last pass after our run and got the tires to hold a little better, still had to pedal it but it ran a 6.17 @ 115mphOriginally posted by Dan03mach View PostYeah I think You and I ran on that last pass.

Yeah it was running good. I was only able to get a 6.3 out of mine. It spun pretty bad the 3 times I tried to come out on boost.Originally posted by SICK240 View PostYes it was a good run, clean car.
