Street car racing! May 23rd Woodburn

Sounds like a ton of fun. Wish there were more of these throughout the summer...... My junk will be ready for September if it's not broke by then.

Why so long between the drag events? I take it there was no "heads up" event formed? Who/what, was the quickest time of the bunch?

I think the heads up race will be next year, Kris was waiting to have a decent group of cars in the same range before doing a Heads up race.
I was the quickest this time, ran 11.50's on motor. There's a few of us that can go faster but don't have the safety stuff/roll bar ect. If I can get a bar in by Sept. I'll probably spray mine, it should run mid 10's at least.

We had some guys trailer to the meet spot and have a friend drive the tow rig to the track. I don't blame you for not wanting to chance it. I used to do 120 miles each way, I was so worried about breaking it took the fun out of it.

If I had to guess I'd say that's when Kris could get on the schedule. Woodburn has a ton of specialty classes/races going on.

Hello all. Some of you I recognize: Brian, Robert, Jay, and Mike. I figured I should create an account so I could help Brian and Robert with spreading the word and answering questions.
Mike, I saw you ask about a PIR date. I'm not saying no, but the problem is trying to organize a bracket race within their normal operation. And trying to get it done within their curfew. I made the schedule with Woodburn back in November to make things work, logistically speaking. It would be pretty easy to just have us get together for some T&T and heads up racing though. Good to see/talk with you again BTW, its been quite a while. Hope things are going well for you.
The reason for the gap between events is because some of the guys showed interest in the "NW Drag Tour" event that is going on, so I set that time aside next month. And we have an autocross on the schedule for July and August. I have tried to limit events to once a month to prevent "burn out", and to keep costs down for everyone. Sadly, our first event of the year was rained out. I hope that clears things up, but I kind of doubt it, lol.

I didn't realize that registration is closed. I thought it was pre-registration that had closed, and that you could enter later for an additional cost, or without the t-shirt, something like that. I found some of the information to be a bit difficult to understand. Maybe its me though.

My car has been down two weeks waiting on PTC to "adjust" my torque converter. Prob be down 3 more.....
Pissed!
But I'll come play when it's ready!
Or just run the vette.
FWIW, PIR needs participants. It's painfully slow there.
