I agree with ^^^^^^^^^

I'm sure there will be a bunch of guys with crappy R/T (myself for one ). So, I think 50/50 split would not be fair. You could also do two buckets, one for R/T and one for E/T. ? . ? . But, it should'nt be complicated, so whatever.

the best reaction time can be won by anyone , does not take a big motor or a race car, just the timing of the lights

both can be won by anyone knucklehead, if you guess your car runs a 22.553 quarter and you run a 22.553 quarter, you win, if you guess your car will run a 10.025 and it runs a 11.355 well .... you're just one of the few posters in this thread Twisted Evil

I'd watch out for Gil on the ET thing. He's done a bunch of draggin' and knows his car pretty well.

This should be a blast! Can't wait. Very Happy

I wouldn't even know where to begin to guess on a 25hp motor Embarassed .

I do know i will beat Jim, hands down!!
I'll even leave the Hazet Kit in the front, I don't want to do a wheelie down the track! Wink Rolling Eyes

Of all the pix i have i don't have a good engine shot.
So this will have to do till i get one this weekend.

I'm guessing the split would run around 30 seconds.

do they let the timer run that long ? I know when my old tired 574,000 miles 1600 ran the first time, I got a DQ (not Dairy Queen !) so I went and asked and they said "oh we thought your car broke and the timer is set to stop at 20 sec" and then they changed it and yay I ran at 21 something at something around 63 mph LOL

Ok, I am going to bring something new-school... Its our shop car. I would rather run this than my old 67. I wont be too hard on it because I will be the one fixing it, and I have also never drag raced. So, I'm sure it will be interesting!

OK OK OK.

from all the sewage spewed the past couple of weeks, it seems to me there will be some 'featured' races. Very Happy
like for instance:


arod 'the great' vs. jeremy 'the kid'

dave 'the principal' vs. josh 'the stinky pinky'

jeff 'the flea' vs. jim 'the bad boys lowrey'

jerry peeler 'the old man' vs. danny 'the bandolero'

bill 'the redneck' vs. ricky 'the mouth'

steve 'the panzer' vs. bill 'the redneck'

paul 'the donut maker' vs. ?

miles 'the read my tag' vs. jeremy 'the kid'

Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing

It has just the typical upgrades. Larger hamster and a magic genie under the hood!

Seriously though, it is has a turbo upgrade, our own custom built header and exhaust, along with our own carbon intake. Most of the power is from the management system that we re-mapped. Over all it has bad torque steer under boost, but it finally seems to grab the road with its new 2 stage clutch. It's super fun on a road coarse, so I'll find out how it does going straight!
