Rick

 

local...not in Norfolk. or anywhere real close for that matter. most local shops are all import/mustang shops, but there arent any fbody shops around here.

hit up EFA if you havent been there already.

 

i will be trailing na$ty in may, i will be going to elizabeth city though

 

Im here so is 95-RamAir-LT4-TA, dARkAcEZ28, Raven02TA, im not sure who else is Ill have to check my messages......

 

yep, i know youre here, and i know Raven too although i havent seen him in a while

 

Yeah ill be there in June...... Looks like ill be leaving here on June 4th or 5th.... so ill be out there the 8th or 9th......

Id like to meet up with you guys when i get out there.... would be cool....
plus if ya can, ill need some help moving in

What all is there to do around there???
Where do you guys hang out on the weekends???
How often do you guys go to the track in Richmond??

Kyle

 

well, theres not too much to do now, since its winter.

every friday/sat people meet up in Norfolk and Newport News, and there is usually atleast 50 cars. alot of imports, but we normally make our presense known.

ive been to Richmond a few times, but i honestly dont like it. everytime i went the track prep was lacking. Dinwiddie (VMP) is a better track IMO and its a little closer too. MIR is another option, but its about 2hrs away - but ive been able to cut 1.8x 60's at MIR where i couldnt muster anything below a 2.1 at VMP or Richmond. but i go fairly often, as long as money permits.

 

oh yea....and im down for helping you move in.

just let me know when and i can bring some guys with me too.

 

Are the other two tracks you mentioned 1/4 mile or 1/8 mile????
Im not liking 1/8 mile.... unless its really close to practice and get my launch down...... How close??

2hrs to the track is nothin.... drive a lil over 2 hrs now to San Antonio...






Hell yeah......
Shoot me your cell number..... Pizza and Beer for Helpers...

Virginia Motorsports Park (Dinwiddie) is 1/4. they have Pontiacs in the Park, Super Chevy, Fun Ford Weekend, etc stop by there. and its about an hour to get there - we take the back roads

Richmond Dragway is 1/4. a little over an hour, maybe 1 1/2 away.

Maryland International Raceway is in Mechanicsville, Md., and its a 1/4 too. it took us exactly 2 hours to get there. but we were hauling ***. speed limits up here are like 55-65 (usually 55), but when you get away from this area on 64, traffic moves at about 80-90. and in some sections of long, deserted highway we lined up and hit triple digit speeds. so i dont know how far away it is doing the speed limit.lol

im getting a new phone, and it will be here in a few days. so when i gets here ill pm you my number, i love pizza and beer.

 

SWEET.....

Looks like i wont have to trailer her far then.....
Me and my girl love going out and just cruising around in the evenings....
Whats the weather like there in June??
U have AIM or anything else??

Kyle

 

trailer??? oh no. we dont use trailers here.lol. its not that far, you could drive it to the track just fine.

we normally goto Dinwiddie anyway, so its not far at all.

the weather in June is normally pretty nice (from what i remember of last year), and it should be good track weather.

i do have AIM, and my sn is hiddendialect - but im not on it that much. when im online im usually on the ship, and AIM is too much of a hassle to use here. but sometimes i get on it at home.

yeah no prob Im down with pizza and beer, as for Raven hes been working on his turbo car and trying to finish his n2o up also...plus doing my head and cam, lt's and all that junk...

 

Dont worry ill let you guys know before im heading that way....

We will see how far the drive is..... i trailor for the Just in case ... things.....

Kyle

 

ive seen your build up...i dont think youll be breaking anything. but you can bring the trailor for when i break something though lol

 

ha ha Yeah but it will DRINK fuel on the way there..... Plus i will have drained the Tank of 93 before we left and put C16 in and changed the tune for the track.....
It will be fun for sure....

 

have you looked around into where you can get fuel from around here?

i really need to get a truck/trailer but i cant afford it im always scared when i goto the track about breaking something

 

11SECSS is on here and he owns Performance Unlimited II in Newport News.

I work at Langley and live in Gloucester, we have a few F-bodies up here. Closer to the tracks than you Norfolk guys!

I've had more of a problem hooking at VMP than Richmond. I don't like how Richmond runs street/strip though, you get two time trials, then you wait 4-5 hours while they run top ET and modified. VMP is a top notch facility, but always seems a little slippery to me, but then again i have usually ran there with a boat load of Imports driving through the water. Ricers love VMP...Maryland is damn nice, 100 miles for me, so I normally go to MIR.

Welcome to the area, check out Eastern F-body and my streetsleepers, page, both are linked in my sig! Look forward to meeting you at the tracks. I've got a truck and trailer if you ever break!

I just talked to Chris (Raven02) earlier this week. I think I'm going to have him do the wire mod on my SS. Oh and by the way, I'm here too, though my car is slow, though I'm not in the military!
