Got to love 41, HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA. Byron and GLD arn't to bad either unless your in the 10's.

 

Damn u had a double post!!! LOL!! hell yeah 41 is the easiest track to get bywith no equipment.... Byron is a little more strict..... they actually made my buddy wear his helmet.... I have never been to GLD so i dont know how that track is..... Hell 41 lets u go for rides with people down the track...LOL!!!!

 

i agree what rob 02 said when u pull up to the track for like test and tune or whateve they dont know how fast u run so u can at least get one run till they tell u cant run anymore for that day

 

Could start running 1/8's on a 1/4 track.

Or we could invent a new race. It would be who can run closest to a 12.0 with the lowest mph!!! How fast does a truck really have to be to run 12.000 @ 49.3mph When to lift off the pedal is going to be more important than 60' times. And if you hit the brakes that cheating...a new meaning for the term break out!!

 

well, frankly, that's a crappy plan.

my local track costs about $20bucks to race.

It's a 45 minute drive from my house. After teching in and cooling down and waiting in the lanes, you're likely to spend 2 hours waiting for your first run plus an hour and a half getting to and from the track.

So that ONE RUN had better be a PERFECT one, or else you are going to be majorly disappointed.

That sounds like 3 1/2 hrs of enjoyment for $20.........sounds like a bargin in my book

 

At my local track, teching in, what's that??? We race in shorts if we want to...We do wear a helmet though..

20 minute ride to my local 1/4 mile track, $12.00 at the gate to get in and then I head to the staging lanes...

 

sounds like our local track..... hahahahahahahahaha
all the street racers run "no clock" at my local track....... I think u guys are the only ones that know what my truck runs lol!!!

 

Same way at my local track, they don't post the times. A lot of gambling Bling! Bling! going on...You get to know your time when the guy at the timeslip shack gives it to you before going back to the pits.

And I mean your time ticket only, you don't get to see what the other guy ran on your ticket..

 

hehehe as struckby99(Jason) says to me all the time... Damn streetracers!!!!!!

 

Try Open Track events on a road course. Then, the engine mods are relatively meaningless. Plus, the fun lasts much longer (1 - 3 hours vs. 11.xx seconds).

 

Spike and Ruslow are "the man" when it comes to road racing...

We Lightning guys appreciate you guys testing the limits in your L's for us.

 

Thanks, but there are others too, although Stan is the only one that comes to mind when testing the limits. He found most of them this year while only trying to average 10 mph faster than last season speeds (over the length of the event). He would have found more limits but ran out of parts.

Regarding Open Track events, all I can do is suggest trying them out. They're a lot of fun and you don't need anything special to do them, other than an open mind, decent brake pads and fresh brake fluid.
