TTT for any new MS users. Anyone going racing soon? Just got my new tires on, so I want to see if they will slow down my car or with the 60ft pick up enough to lower my ET.

We are moving from Atlanta to the Hattiesburg area this Sunday. It will be nice to be less than 10 minutes from a strip. Im pretty close to one here now...but hub hooks pretty damn good and the low altitude is great...

Yep, it hooks real good. They do a good deal of prepwork. I was suprised they showed racing from hubcity on horsepower tv.

Not me, 13.80 at 104mph. Sad, but I got a lid and catback since then, I don't know if the tires will help with traction or hurt with weight. Also, I think the driver has improved. First time with a stick for the 13.80.

I hope so too. I've got a few new "things" to try out this weekend as well. If things go the way I hope they do...I'll get to join a new club.

You know, besides Memphis, I haven't been to any of those tracks. I haven't even raced at Memphis. When I was in school (Starkville) I lived with two other gear heads, and we would still go south to tuscola motorsports park in Lena, MS (nice track, but no Hattiesburg). I think it took about an hour and a half to get there.

Hub City 6/26/05

Anyone?

I didn't get to launch at 4K last weekend. My timeslips were like:

2000K=2.2 60'
2500K=2.1 60'
3000K=2.0 60'

So if it will stay linear and my tires keep hooking, 4000K=1.8 60'. Low 13's or maybe a high 12 could be possible. As long as I keep my clutch cool enough to not have problems shifting. Anyways, I'm kinda jonesing to go back.

Anyone interested?
