yea i went they jacked up the price to 25 insted of the usaul 15they where packed my fox body got 6 runs in couse they kept runnig the slick cars over the street tires and my 02 gt got 3 runs
|
Yep they screw you over on open slick tire test and tune. I don't go anymore it just pisses me off.
|
it was great for my fox but i kinda already knew its time i wanted to finish the tune on my stock 02 and what should a stock 02 run the best i get was a 13.98
|
That is very good for a stock 02 Gt. I think mine was 14.60's with the slush box.
I had to mod immeadiately or never show my face there again. There were Nissan Maxima's running low 15's and I could not allow a v6 sedan to be that close to me. |
well flowmaster replacments and a mac cai i don't consender that as anything
|
Kil-Kare Dragway
Dayton, OH opened about 2 weeks ago. |

At the end of the year with 4.10s, stage 1 cams, and just a couple small bolt ons, I'm hoping to hit mid/low 13s. We shall see! |

The nearest track for me is 350 miles away. The snow won't even be gone till May. I'm still driving around on Blizzaks. :( |

I wish I knew where the closest track was to me. When I used to live in TN there was one less than 15 minutes from my house. Now they're all at least an hour away. :wallbash:
|
the nearest track from here is probably at least 2 and a half hours away.....
but they got a dirt raceway....lol |

Im going this saturday for opening day. Ill be posting my times when im done.

Car is ready, Nitto's and skinnies on. Now if only I remember to switch the race tune on tomorrow night.
I got my tire gauge and helmet in the trunk and between a 1/4 and a 1/8 tank of gas. Spare and jack are out. I guess I'm good to go, hope it runs good. I will report back on the evenings festivities. I will have to look for the punisher so I can line up with him and hand out a little punishment of my own.:poke: |
i wish i could still do the 1/4 tank track events. i need at least half tank to run my car these days.
good luck hopefully its not too humid over in the mid west. |
I'm actually going this Friday. Opening day for our tracks...

It was a good night at the track, big crowd and good air. I guess my Nitto's are offically done, they would not hook for poop. Still It was fun to get out and race again. I did not get to see "The punisher" run, we where too far apart in line but I read that he got a new best. So congrat's on a new best. My car was running great and I would have gone 12.70's with traction but it was not to be. Some cheap bastard tried to coax a couple more trips to the track out his toasted Nitto's.:wallbash:
Best I could muster was a 13.06 @ 106.60 with a poopy 1.87 sixty foot. I ran six times and each sixty foot got worse all the way to a 2.09 I raced an 03 Cobra twice and had him beat the first run but I spun bad off the line a lost by a car length ( I tree'd him .060 to .389) I ran a 13.10 to his 12.78 if I'd hooked on that pass would have gone 12.80's I was cussing the Nitto's big time. Second race was about the same only I only got him by.100 off the line and had a 1.95 sixty foot so he waxed me by 5 car lengths. I beat a Vette and an older Camaro LT1 ( they are slow) and a couple of foriegn sedans that ran 17's. Why do people race slow cars? I was a bit rusty on the tree with a couple of red lights -.005 and a -.105 the clean runs were .060 - .105 so not too bad. I have to order some MT drag radials tomorrow and put my electric water pump on the hopefully get another night of good air and run a new best. Lot's a nice looking Stangs were out tonite. |
