Anyone ever been? If so, how is it? Looks like a pretty cool idea and we thought about heading up and trying it. Racing on pit road of a NASCAR facility has to be a neat deal. How quick are the Street Outlaw cars? We might take our nitrous C5 up and see what's up. We could also take the bottle out and run Sportsman.

There is no prep.

dsadsdaiouser

Thanks. I guessed that but wasn't sure. I can adjust the nitrous on the progressive controller.

How quick are the cars in Sportsman and Street Outlaws?

Huh. Our shop is right down the road from TMS, pass by it every single day, but I've never been to the Friday Night Drags myself. Are they even doing it tomorrow because of the 4th?

dsadsdaiouser

No, they aren't doing it on the 4th. If I'm not mistaken they only do it a limited number of times in the summer and there are only 3 left; July 11, 18 and 25. The web site shows some pictures and there appears to be a good turnout.

You would have better luck at Texas Motorplex.

It's a joke and actually dangerous for a car with a good amount of power.

I go to watch my buddies Stang run...some fast cars, the built GTR's typically win every race, but 2 weeks ago a Nitrous 3rd Gen Camaro whooped on him, the crowd went wild. Some fast cars, non prepped track, fun for a TNT session.

It's fun to go and launch your car without fear of the popo getting you. It's also good for testing and tuning. I take my '78 out there and run thru the practice time just to practice launching. There is a mustang for every race so, the more LS power out there the better in my book.

dsadsdaiouser

Ok. Back to the top. So how bad is the track prep and how slick will the "track" be for our car? We run mid 11's NA and mid 10's on nitrous. Looked like fun last year when we went to spectate but don't want to run on a dangerous surface. We have to run over one Friday soon to Fort Worth to pick up our roll bar from Wolfe Racecraft and thought we'd take the car along and run.

At a no prep track being good for T&T.. How can you properly tune a car or dial it in with it spinning the whole time..

audacious nick

WOT tuning, duh. It's almost like a dyno. Haha

Well, if you can make your car hook on a no prep track of then it should damn sure be ready for a prepped track. If your car is set up properly for drag racing it will hook when a LOT cars won't. I have seen it a million times as well as most of the tech crowd. On the other hand spinning ain't worth a damn for data logging and other tuning aspects. That's what a dyno is for.

I agree to a point. Yeah if you can make your car hook on a no prep surface than it damn sure will hook on a track. However that same car will ALWAYS be faster if you set it up to hook on a track from the get go. Its just two completely different types of racing. Props to those that get it done on the street but that's not my style.
