BTW the guys scrren name on here from Jacksonville is Mosley.

 

i've been through there i think. steele didn't close. they lost there NHRA and IHRA sanctioning. which basicly means that there won't be any good races there anymore. they still have NOPI and some other rice show there but nothing big that we would be interested in. it's still pretty good to get you time in though cause there's usually not a lot of people there. would you happen to know one of my friends that comes up there? he has a 70's Nova that was just primer gray but is now silver. it had a built 350 but has a 454 in it now. he runs in the 11s. his name is mark. short guy. real funny. just wondering cause he's almost always there. neways take it easy man...

 

I may have seen that car but I dont think I know who he is. PM me next time you go up there & maybe Ill have my trans then. Later, Vann

 

Anyone Ozark/Enterprise folks have an interest in 1/8 mile racing?? They have a track south of dothan in cottonwood...

 

I'm from Birmingham but I go to school in Auburn. Unfortunately I don't have my car down there with me. I plan on having it some time next semester...

 

Tracks don't open until Feb/Mar.... I won't be back in the states until march either so i guess it works out good

 

i have been a few times

 

to cottonwood?? Where you from??

 

I heard that MMP (Montgomery) may be running TnT on Sundays starting in mid January.

They probably will be since I don't think they closed like they said they were going to. The track is okay, just the boards don't work half the time, or the tree doesn't work, last few times I was there its been a waste of time, nothing worked right and they get the box too wet you almost burn out into the wall even when you "try" to go around the water.


Anyways maybe we can all meet up one friday night for T&T.

Hey guys, Blount county here. Hey Vann, I met you a couple of times at steele...finally took the v-6 deep in the 13's, but I need a little more power. Working on an engine swap now (or at least rounding up parts with not much luck). Anyway, I'm gonna try to get to Montgomery sometime to run before the swap...Let me know when a bunch of you guys are heading down there and I'll round up some of the local f-bodies and get down that way.
Later

 

Whats up man, congrats on the 13's. What kind of parts are you looking for? More than likely you can find them in the for sale section. Maybe I can get the trans back in my car before this cold weather ends. I would like to hit that 10.90 mark.

 

Thanks, yeah I've been on here about twice a day looking for parts. I had been looking for a wrecked car to swap everything, but that isnt working out too well. I've been buying parts here and there, but I still need a motor and trans. I'm going from 3.8 A4 to a ls1 m6. Surely the Z will hit 10's...I know you came close a few nights I was at the track. Anyway, thanks for the reply.

 

any update when steele will be open again, I was told they are down for repair.

 

really? when were you told that? i'll ask around. i know one of my friends will know.

 

I called the number to the track awhile back and all the rain we had must have messed up the repairs they recently finished, although I haven't been by to check or anything. As warm as it's been the past few days and being cold at night, would be perfect to be out racing. I guess most of the tracks will be closing soon if they aren't already though.

 

I want to run a 1/4 soon, If anyone knows of a track that is open please let me know.

 

I went to steele's website today and Denise from there had posted on their forum that a contracting company had came and looked at the damage last week.... so that means they haven't even started fixing it yet.

 

I'm with 2bseen....anyone have any suggestions? I guess the only options we have are Montgomery or Huntsville if either of them are still running...

 

Montgomery is open. They have the 2005 schedule on their web site.
