Congrats Dave. I would like to know what it would do with a bit more boost. Hopefully I will be able to come down the first of next year.

Be careful... the definition of a "streetcar" is up to many different interpretations....

But, I think we all agree that streetcars run on 93 octane. So, 8s may be difficult on pump gas...

actually there was more like 250+ racing... that 196 number was how many tech cards we sold or something.

the jr dragsters were only there because they closed down the friday before, i dont mind if its under those circumstances.. i really dont mind a couple bikes

were looking to do a 2-day thing one of these days so we dont have a 45min+ wait in the staging lanes.

Not sure yet Shon. Last year it was the last Sunday in March. Damon is talking with Ed about doing something really nice this spring. I'll let you know as soon as I do man.


BTW, I was about 6 cars behind you everytime you ran. Sorry I did not get to come over & say hey!

Oops! Did not see your post earlier Joe. Yeah thats what I meant by something really nice! The only thing that ticked me off about the bikes was that guy that busted his oil pan then spray oil 900 ft up the track...when I was the NEXT person in that lane. I waited 1 1/2 hours for them to clean that **** up



Yeah, I remember the last number on the car that left tech was 260. This spring is going to be the best one yet!!!!!!!!

**** I was in the burn out box! Bunch of bullshit. I personally dont think we should have anything but street cars. No bikes/junior dragsters.

I have parts on the way for the car. Should have a clutch here in the next few weeks. I will be shooting for some new pb's in march on motor..... then finally get to run the n2o at the track for the first time, a year after the install oh yeah... and i powershifted my car for the first time yesterday (didn't really want to do it, but it does it so beautifully). So no more granny shifting going down the track.

I too have some parts on the way! Trickflow heads and a ported 92/92 setup should be installed by next weekend! Hoping for 460-470RWHP. We would still be a good run!

Seriously, we are going to be pretty lax about that. Hell hopefully Tim Lynch or Todd Berry will bring something to play with this spring.
