I am bringing a group of Vettes/F-bodies/GTO's from Vegas down this winter to run. Was wondering if Famoso or Infineon is more lenient on roll cages etc? We want to come down with a big group but many of the cars are street cars. Also what DA's do you usually see at those tracks in the winter? Thanks for any help.

 

famoso shuts down during the winter.. you are lookin at having to rent the track.. to get to run..

 

Check out Autoclub Speedway http://www.autoclubspeedway.com/Tick...-Calendar.aspx
Scroll down for more months. It's under NHRA Street Legal Drags. Not sure what the requirements are, but I heard that depending on your time, depends if you need a roll cage, helmet, drive shaft loop, etc. Give 'em a call, they may be able to help you. Hope this helps.

 

Oh ya, Autoclub Speedway is in Fontana.

 

Thanks. Not sure what I will run but I predict 9's at that elevation. Hope they don't trip about not having a cage. lol

 

lol you will be kick off immediately if your running 9s with out a cage lol
that if you get past tech

 

Well, maybe I can get a pass or two. lol Maybe I should try Arizona. Firebird Raceway????

 

I hope we are talking 1/4 mile.... only thing CA seems to be plentiful of is the damn 1/8 mile tracks

what's fomoso?

 

Ya, I want a 1/4 track.

 

famoso- its a 1/4 mile track in Bakersfield
people usually race on it, but every time Ive been people use it to break their car and then pour fluids all the way down the track

 

Redding is the most leniant that i have seen. I have been 10.1 @ 133 with no cage.

 

If you can wait until the end of January, I'm renting out Fontana and putting on a racing event.

I would totally open up one behind my house. Theres a perfect quarter mile straight line. Maybe I will do that some time!

 

This sounds like fun. I just don't want to get kicked out for running to fast. Want to get at least a few passes.

 

Fontana is pretty strict...

U may just want to take it to 1000' and then shut it down.... should give you some time slips that are above 9 sec, yet you can still figure out your expected 1/4 from the data...

Just an idea..

 

sacramento raceway is your best bet

 

+1 on Sacramento Raceway. There pretty easy on Tech'n in. I run low 11s and they don't say **** to me. There's people I've seen run faster trapping over 160 and they don't even say anything about a shoot.

 

Famoso's last TnT night is tonight....after that no more till feb/march or so...

You can rent the track. They charge about $5k for a full day on weekend. That includes prep etc. So get 50-75 cars at $75-$100 each and youll have it covered.

When I rented the track last year, it was a huge pain and alot of work.

DA's are normally 1250-1750 during the winter.

 

It was a pain because of the focking weather

 

God damn SoCalSpd thats quite a nice stable of cars in that sig of yours lol.
