If I go,,, which I plan to, I won't leave Albany till bout 7, maybe a bit earlier if I happen to get off work early. Then depending on how fast I drive, I'll probably be there round 8:30. What time does it shut down? I gotta work at 8am. I don't think I'll run my car, I can't drive at all, but we'll see.
Posted By: csvtjohnga Re: Drag Strip Meet! - 08/04/05 10:46 AM

I won't be able to make it by the 19th as I am getting swamped here at school and not able to do much work putting my car back together. I'll try to make it as soon as I get this thing back together though.
Posted By: csvtjohnga Re: Drag Strip Meet! - 08/05/05 01:17 AM
will u be able to make it to nopi
Posted By: warmonger_dup1 Re: Drag Strip Meet! - 08/05/05 01:19 AM
Thinking I'll get it running by the end of this month if I get another free weekend. I had to fly the weekend before last.
Then I have to see when nopi is. I'm dying to drive my car again and thrash the hell out of anyone at this point!
withdrawals.
Posted By: csvtjohnga Re: Drag Strip Meet! - 08/05/05 01:24 AM
hows flying going. i bet thats just as good as drivin your svt
Posted By: warmonger_dup1 Re: Drag Strip Meet! - 08/05/05 01:30 AM
I looked up the nopi info, Sept 17th, yea should be able to make that! I'll have a blast. I can get the Tour cleaned up and head on up. I don't have enough bling to enter the shows but I thought they had some drag races right?

Flying is going good! I have to say it is pretty cool deciding to accelerate and going straight up at 1000 feet per minute rather than just straight ahead. I love high speed turns too but in this helicopter we aren't supposed to do that stuff.

Posted By: csvtjohnga Re: Drag Strip Meet! - 08/05/05 01:33 AM
when you say helicopter which one do u mean? black hawk?
Posted By: warmonger_dup1 Re: Drag Strip Meet! - 08/05/05 01:38 AM
No, not yet. This is the Bell 206 jetranger, otherwise known as the TH-67 training helicopter for the army.

Link to the "I solo'd today" post I put up in the general Forum.

I'm shooting for the Apache or the Chinook, if there are no available slots then I'll shoot for the blackhawk.

Fellas looks like im going to miss another one, my wifes still out of work from her surgery and things are really tight right now. I'm hoping to be doing better for nopi though, Tom I really want to see your car and meet you and some of the others! You guys have fun & post pics!

you know george Jackson,SC(Carolina Raceway)is only about the same distance from Conyers as Reynolds is
Posted By: Kremithefrog Re: Drag Strip Meet! - 08/10/05 11:30 PM
First off, not everyone is from Conyers.
Second, Jackson SUCKS. If you want to go watch drag cars race fine, go there. If you want to race/watch your friends race street cars go elsewhere, such as SDR.
Posted By: Nemesis950psi Re: Drag Strip Meet! - 08/11/05 12:03 PM
So what are some meeting times do you all want to set up?

Im going to be taking a half day at work, and Ill be in Conyers at 1:30pm or so getting ready for the track.

FIRST OFF:
Hey there bo" why don't ya clam down! i was mostly refering to me and jorje going to jackson!

oh and BTW jackson is one of the best tracks you will ever find as far as conditions go! yes the waiting in line sucks but if you have much power and have traction problems at other tracks i promise you will be much better of there.

so before you go and pop off at me like that again you better know exactly who i was talking to and what i was talking about.

have a good day
Posted By: Kremithefrog Re: Drag Strip Meet! - 08/11/05 04:30 PM
Hey buddy, just because you think I'm excited doesn't mean I am.
When you make a post on a public forum expect anyone/everyone to reply. Especially when it's very unclear to who you're talking to. So if you're gonna get your panties in a bunch over someone replying to you, then make it very clear to who you are talking to.

Jackson is an aight track. My statement still stands. None of ya'll have enough power to get worried about traction too much. Jackson caters to drag cars not street cars. No point in taking a street car unless you love sitting in the lanes.

So before you go and pop off at me you better make it really clear whom you are talking to. Don't get so pissy when you make a reply and expect people to read your mind and know who you're talking to. If you want to talk to just one person, click that button that says PM.

Chill out guy.

Quite the contrary. You know little about 99Cougars car nor mine, both he and I do have problems with traction at the strip. Ive never been to Jackson so I cant say anything about that one, but I know Reynolds is a much nicer track to hook up at compared to the ones ive been to.
Posted By: 99cougar Re: Drag Strip Meet! - 08/11/05 09:27 PM
this will be my last reply to this topic just so i don't start anymore trouble butt....

i do have traction probs in 1st and 2nd so yah...

PS and i am pretty sure the 500+hp CRX in my backyard has slight traction problems with anything but slicks...oh n/m i know it does. at just 8psi it will spin all the way thru 1st and 2nd. and with the ability to hold 30+ psi i would imagine it can get alot worse!

so yes i do have to worry about traction...no my panties aren't in a knot or whatever you said about them...and i will pop off whenever i want cause your right it is a forum and last i checked i am still an American so i can say what i want when i want. whats gonna happen? i'll get kicked off. big deal. its still just a forum and there are plenty more to join so no biggy here.

BTW i was not mad at you in any way. i don't get mad its not worth it. i figure i'll live a longer life without all the stress of being pissed of at someone that i will never meet so there's no need.

its all good tho

BTW if anyone wants to see this CRX run it will prolly be a couple weeks...need to get some slicks and get the computer programed with a 3bar map sensor. then it will be off too..... Jackson.

seriously not to make this post any longer but i really see no need to argue about something like this...i accept your reply kermit. my apoligies to you and i will try to be more specific in any upcoming posts that i make. (handshake)

your right you could have a v-8 or nitrous in your car, how would we know. For the most part Kermit is right anyone with a 2.5L mtx stock or slitlly modded should not have a traction problem unless they are dumping the clutch at 4500 rpm. a 192hp Atx having traction problems at the strip is just plain silly and can be easily fixed unless you have a 26-3500 stall or narrow tires. 14.6 is a impressive run if it is a n/a 2.5L atx though.

Of course you have some. You're FWD. But you should get what I'm saying. Not a drag car. A slightly better track could give a slightly better time though so could slightly better weather conditions or slightly better driving. Get what I'm saying?

Posted By: Kremithefrog Re: Drag Strip Meet! - 08/11/05 11:59 PM
IDK. My memory sucks. My SN is from a mp3 that was circulated on the net years ago where big bird and kermit are high and he calls kermit kremit (or krammit, seen it both ways).

Pretty sure I'm not gonna go. Hopefully ya'll will be up for doing this again sometime and I'll make it and race the escort.
Posted By: JustinCSVT Re: Drag Strip Meet! - 08/15/05 12:25 AM
I'm expecting to see 14's from Ryan. If he can run 15's at Commerce, he can improve those times at Silver Dollar.

Nope, I have a bunch of stuff to do next weekend. If you check out my Corvette post, you could see that I was down there yesterday. It's a pretty nice track, met the owner who is a good guy. The roads going there are nice too as we averaged a good 70mph back there.

Hope you guys have a good time.
Posted By: ryanblacksvt Re: Drag Strip Meet! - 08/15/05 01:20 PM
