[sweetbmxrider]

How much are spectator passes?

[LTb1ow]

In for this, hopefully have a running car

[sweetbmxrider]

Will there be trophies?

[Featherburner]

Will the scale be in operation?

[Blackbirdws6]

How much are spectator passes?

Free to NJFBOA members. If there is a large group in attendance, I will likely need to run it by the track but I doubt that will be the case.

In for this, hopefully have a running car

Good!

Will there be trophies?

If we can come up with some ideas, I can look into it. There are a couple trophy places right by me I can check out.

Will the scale be in operation?

It was last year and I can make sure it is this year.

[KirkEvil]

In assuming my trans is alive by then

[Jersey Mike]

If the Phoenix ever sees the road again, I will be there to run slow times

[Featherburner]

In for another good time.

[coolmanvette75]

Interested if I am in NJ...

[Blackbirdws6]

We will need to know soon unless you want to just throw $20 in the pot.

[KirkEvil]

Ill make vinyl race numbers for everyone definitely in. Senor BLS can update his list with number requests

Very nice of you. Thanks!

[92REDBIRD]

Im in. When do you want the deposit?

[Blackbirdws6]

Im in. When do you want the deposit?

I will let everyone know once I get some dates from Atco.

[Sprayed 99]

Count me in. My sh@t box is up n runnin

[Blackbirdws6]

Count me in. My sh@t box is up n runnin

Great. I apologize but I forgot your first name.

[LTb1ow]

Dibs on 666

[sweetbmxrider]

Where do I sign?

[Blackbirdws6]

Where do I sign?

Just say the word and I will add you to the list.

[Blackbirdws6]

Left a message for Atco to call me back about dates. Thinking late October or early November (a Friday).

[deadtrend1]

I think I may do this this year

[KirkEvil]

I think it a probable and likely chance that I may consider the possibility of perhaps racing this year, maybe.

[deadtrend1]

Go ahead

[Blackbirdws6]

Pending everyone on the list actually attending, I'd say this is looking pretty good. We can go for another 5 spots if anyone else is interested.

I haven't heard back from Atco but will update the thread with potential dates when I have them. From there, I will ask those looking to attend to send their deposit so I can secure the date.

[DadsZ28]

Put me in,I missed last year, where do I send the deposit?

[Blackbirdws6]

Put me in,I missed last year, where do I send the deposit?

Sounds good! I will let everyone know where to send the deposit once we settle on a date and are ready to firm up the date.

[LTb1ow]

First callout for this year...

TBSS vs Dmax, loaded car trailer race after the day of racing is done. Race from a stop up to cone, and then who can stop the quickest.

I have witnesses that will agree that someone said their TBSS can out tow a dmax.

Leggoo

[Dudbird113]

Count me in being my car should be done in a month. Just hope she'll take my abuse till this rental

Leggoo

Your race to 30mph and stopping is lame. Pretty sure the original callout was a heads up race of DDs between you me and BLS. You did not show up at island dragway for that race, and you puss out everytime we go to etown. Still just a buster

[LTb1ow]

Who said anything about 30mph? Unless thats as fast as a towing TBSS can muster...

As far as original callout, well, you seem to have a fuzzy memory, but you said your TBSS could out tow a Dmax.

When you wanna loan my 5k for a trans, I will glady run 12s

30mph is first gear, since you are afraid to let your dump truck shift to in a race. Besides dodging the orignal DD war callout, Im not sure why you think pulling 6k lbs is going to be easier on the trans.

[LTb1ow]

Keep moonwalking, you claimed a TBSS can out tow a dmax...this is your chance to prove it. I will leave the 12 gauge shell and paintball gun home for another time. :lol:

Adam instigated a tow off and I agreed to said race because you were too pussy footed to stay in the throttle heads up. Regardless, I would be happy to put your dump truck to shame. In fact, I will call AAA on your behave to arrange a ride home for both your broken vehicles.

[transampete]

count me in...my POS should be ready by November.

[ShortFuse]

I'm game

So you're going to put this on me? No, there's no way you're going to put this on me!

[Blackbirdws6]

Great. I added you to the list.

How much is it anyway?

$20 non-refundable deposit and $180 cash on the day. Please read the entire first post and let me know if you still want to be on the list. As a reminder, no street tires.

I'm game

Also added to the list. Thanks!

[Jersey_TA]

Count me in!!!!!!

[Blackbirdws6]

Count me in!!!!!!

Excellent! Hope everyone can attend. I will follow up with Atco on Monday.

[sweetbmxrider]

Can we elect for catering? Since you are looking into a film crew and photoshoot....figure its a drop in that big ole bls bucket :D

[DadsZ28]

Count me in!!!!!!

Wowwww.....worth the price of admission now! :mrgreen:

[Jersey_TA]

Wowwww.....worth the price of admission now! :mrgreen:

As soon as I buy tires after the wedding in September ;) should be fun.

[transmaro93]

going to try and make it as a spectator this year. at most my bro and girlfreind would attend but for something like this would probably just be me..

[Blackbirdws6]

I was able to speak with Atco and unfortunately all of the Fridays are gone for October and November. They have a couple in December but I think that's a bit risky due to issues with weather and such. Mondays and Thursday are generally available so here are the details. I took out the dates around Thanksgiving.

I would be leaning towards a Monday date which would give folks time to prep their cars over the weekend.

Mondays - 10/7, 10/28, 11/4, 11/11, 11/18
Thursdays - 10/10, 10/24, 11/7, 11/14

If no one has any objections, I think November 4th would be ideal. In the event of poor weather, we should have some room to get a new date scheduled before the end of the season.

Once we agree upon a date, I want to get the deposit ready to go and sent so we are all set.

These are all valid points and I agree with your logic here.
I'd prefer a Monday rather than a Thursday.
11/4 would be fine.

Again, my attendance is conditional to the completion of the T/A, so please do weigh it differently when polling everyone.

[BonzoHansen]

September Fridays?

11/4 11/7 are bad for me. not that I matter other than spectating and other side show stuff.

[LTb1ow]

I do not care either way, Thursday would give me a nice four day weekend to forget how bad my car ran.

[Blackbirdws6]

What were the december fridays?

I will find out.

Understood.

Monday would eliminate me for the most part

We will see what the group wants to do which hopefully works for you as well.

September Fridays?

11/4 11/7 are bad for me. not that I matter other than spectating and other side show stuff.

I called to inquire about that as well. September may still be a bit warm but I will see what's available.

I do not care either way, Thursday would give me a nice four day weekend to forget how bad my car ran.

You know this is for 2013 and not 2014 correct?

[KirkEvil]

I would prefer a Monday and 11/4 looks good to me.

[Dudbird113]

Thursday would be cool. A little warm weather in sept isnt bad probally heat the track up and help with hooking

[Blackbirdws6]

Spoke with Atco again and the only Friday available from Sept through December is December 20th. The date sounds too risky and could easily be postponed due to weather.

For those interested, please respond with the dates you are available. I will do my best to accomodate those with schedule challenges but we still need to settle on a date that will work best for the group to get this going.

[Dudbird113]

Any thursday is good for me. Mondays id have to i go in to work at 5 but i could always find coverage.

[Dudbird113]

Id say do mid october cause its still semi nice out

[Jersey_TA]

I'm good for Nov 4th. Any date in Nov would work for me though. If you do it in sept I'd be out. Going back home to Illinois all sept for my brother's wedding then my wedding the following week.

[Featherburner]

Brian, I sent you a PM this morning but I'll list it here as well.
Mondays-10/7, 11/4, 11/18 and Thursday 11/14 are good for me.

[Blackbirdws6]

Thanks for the input. Waiting for a few others to chime in and a decision will be made.

[Blackbirdws6]

Monday November 4th was OK with most who got back to me today. I'm waiting for a few others to chime in. Monday 11/18 and Thursday 11/14 were also well received. Perhaps we go for Monday 11/18 for possibly better air?

100% agree with 11/18 for better air.

[Dudbird113]

Verdict in?

[Blackbirdws6]

100% agree with 11/18 for better air.

Leaning this way as well. Still waiting on a few and I will get the date finalized.

Verdict in?

Waiting for those who haven't responded but would like to get this done tomorrow. I will be requesting deposit money at that time.

One does not rush the BLS.

Cides, its months away, the date will change 5 times between now and then.

Just trying to be as fair as possible. Date will only change if weather decides to be a problem. Last year went well if you recall.

[Tru2Chevy]

With this much notice any of the dates you listed should be fine for me (Thursdays would be easier to take off as I won't need to find coverage). I have no problems bringing my camera and taking pictures all day (especially if Adam brings fancy glass for me to play with ;) )

- Justin

[DadsZ28]

4th might be better for me but i will try to take off whichever day you decide on.

[Dudbird113]

Im looking foward to this atm but the sad part is its in the fall/winter. So basically im looking foward to winter

[92REDBIRD]

Deposit sent.

[Dudbird113]

Deposit sent, cost me an extra .88 cents! All good though

[Jersey_TA]

Deposit sent

[Blackbirdws6]

Thanks guys!

[transampete]

[deadtrend1]

Ill send deposit when I get home later

[02SOMWS6]

If it is a monday for sure let me know cause I'm off on Mondays so if there's any spots open I'm in and may be able to get another car as well

[Blackbirdws6]

If it is a monday for sure let me know cause I'm off on Mondays so if there's any spots open I'm in and may be able to get another car as well

I've gone one more spot open at this time so if you want to send your deposit, feel free to do so.

[02SOMWS6]

So where do I send my deposit too? And what is the official date? 11/18? I sent you a text this morning fromthe number I had from last year but no response

[Blackbirdws6]

Tied up at work so I can't always respond. The official date is 11/4 - Monday for the rental.

[LTb1ow]

So how many street cars are showing on trailers?

[Blackbirdws6]

So how many street cars are showing on trailers?

Prob all of those who lack a support vehicle.

[Dudbird113]

I have debated towing it. My 10 bolt may go kaboom

Get some AAA plus but make sure you sign up at least a week beforehand.

[Featherburner]

Since I own a trailer it would be foolish not to have it.

[sweetbmxrider]

Since I own a trailer it would be foolish not to have it.

You should tow it behind your car!

[PolarBear]

Get some AAA plus but make sure you sign up at least a week beforehand.

Hagerty towing FTW! It's better than AAA Plus, and cheaper and it is in some ways better than AAA Premier and about half the price

[WildBillyT]

Hagerty towing FTW! It's better than AAA Plus, and cheaper and it is in some ways better than AAA Premier and about half the price

Yep, like flatbed only.

[Blackbirdws6]

Hagerty towing FTW! It's better than AAA Plus, and cheaper and it is in some ways better than AAA Premier and about half the price

Their high octane plan is more expensive than what I pay for AAA Plus. I have never had an issue getting a flatbed from AAA. :shrug: I see a couple nice benefits to the High Octane plan which gives you 25 extra miles and unlimited emergency requests. I think AAA plus limits you to like 5 requests a year or w/e. I may look into this and see what kind of pricing they can offer. Do you know if the Hagerty provides benefits to you the person, or just the vehicles in your household? I know AAA basically covers you so if you are with a buddy and get stuck, AAA will still provide service.

[PolarBear]

The High octane plan is a lot less if you have a plan with them, just FYI. I think I pay $80 or $90 for the year combined with my plan. It covers any vehicle you are in if I remember correctly, not just limited to vehicles you own. Even covers you trailer.

Hagerty Plus covers the first 125 miles of guaranteed flatbed towing OR the first $100 of other roadside services like fuel delivery, battery jumps and lockouts. This plan covers an unlimited number of emergency service requests per year for all of your household vehicles - not just your classics- and trailers towing your classic vehicles.

I was also told that if you need to go more that 125 miles you have the car dropped and then you call again for a new tow. Whether that is accurate or not I don't know

[Blackbirdws6]

I will look into it considering our membership is currently up for renewal soon.

[deadtrend1]

Since I own a trailer it would be foolish not to have it.

Yerp

[sweetbmxrider]

2nd to last line says household vehicles....

[Dudbird113]

I may roll up racecar status.. On a trailer

[BarneyMobile]

No trailer for me.

[sweetbmxrider]

Fastest car there, drives there :lol:

[Featherburner]

How far from the track do you live Rob?

[Dudbird113]

Probably a couple miles haha

[deadtrend1]

How far from the track do you live Rob?
Probably a couple miles haha

hes about 20-25 miles from the track

[BarneyMobile]

What Tim said. Lately I've been making the trip to Cecil so a trip to Atco will be pleasent!!

[LTb1ow]

So is the list on teh first page accurate on who will be there? If so, def should be a nice turn out!

[Blackbirdws6]

Yes it is accurate. Also accurate that you didn't give me your deposit.

[Jersey Mike]

Let's see if my heap ever runs again before we try to push it down across state, and down a track at speed.

[LTb1ow]

Yes it is accurate. Also accurate that you didn't give me your deposit.

Accurate indeed.

I will send you some pesos when my car works. :lol:

[Dudbird113]

It starts up and moves? Then it works haha. My car on the other hand doesn't, motor is still on the stand

[Sprayed 99]

I'm drivin there too....but we will have access to trailers if needed....

[WayFast84]

I didn't read the whole thread but I assume both lanes would be for drag tires? Would I have to wait until the end of the day to run in an awd car on street tires?

[Blackbirdws6]

I didn't read the whole thread but I assume both lanes would be for drag tires? Would I have to wait until the end of the day to run in an awd car on street tires?

Yes. Both lanes will be for drag tires. We ran just about until the end of the rental last year so you honestly may not get many runs in unless you wanted to hot lap the car like crazy.

[Jersey_TA]

I'll also be driving my pile.

[Sprayed 99]

One of my buddies (short fuse) wants in...any spots open Brian?

[Blackbirdws6]

Will he be on a drag tire? We can fit him in if that's the case.

[BarneyMobile]

Shortfuse will be on slicks so no worry there.

[Dudbird113]

Wats with the numbers before the paid?

[Sprayed 99]

Will he be on a drag tire? We can fit him in if that's the case.
Yes........hoosier QTP slicks

[Blackbirdws6]

Shortfuse will be on slicks so no worry there.

Read too fast and missed the name. Good deal

Wats with the numbers before the paid?

Just track numbers people requested.

Yes........hoosier QTP slicks

Thanks. Will he be sending the deposit?

[NJ Torque]

can i still get in on this?

[Blackbirdws6]

can i still get in on this?

If you can send the deposit and let me know what you will be running then I can add you to the list.

[Slow-V6]

Spectator costs?

[Blackbirdws6]

Spectator costs?

None that I am aware of....but maybe lunch for Adam ;)

[PolarBear]

I think I can go to this. If someone can bring a grill, I can work on the cooking, unless people hated my work at the DIP meet.

We could work it like the DIP meet, everyone brings something. I have a table I think I can fit in the Firebird.

[Blackbirdws6]

I thought I heard BLS was sponsoring the catered lunch....

ORLY? You are still bringing burgers for everyone right? :rofl:

Any help would be appreciated. I am working with the powers that be to determine how and who can help with the event. While BBQ is tastier, it may be easier just doing sandwiches and such.

Sweet! I like the way BLS rolls.

Let's not get the rumor mill going just yet.

[Featherburner]

We could work it like the DIP meet, everyone brings something. I have a table I think I can fit in the Firebird.I have a spare Webber laying around. I'll pull it out and see if it still works.

[Featherburner]

So you are racing the Bird at the rental then right? Heard it on the forum...I'd love to but I don't think there is time.

[Blackbirdws6]

I'd love to but I don't think there is time.

Let the grass grow and get it done :)

[LTb1ow]

I will have a basically empty 8ft bed if you want to bring a grill Adam, just would need a heads up so we can load up early. Could also bring a table etc.

[LTb1ow]

Would need a 4 + burner IMO to cook for everyone but I guess its an option/

The truck should fit your big grill, not like I will be getting good mileage anyway.

[sweetbmxrider]

The truck should fit your big grill, not like I will be getting good mileage anyway.

Yes but cooking for 15+ people on it won't work out well especially in colder weather. If someone has a nice 4+ burner grill, we'd be in good shape. My 3 burners, not so much.

[Blackbirdws6]

The rental is on the 4th of November just to clarify an error on the edited original post. It is on a Monday.

[Blackbirdws6]

I cleaned up the original post to make the details more clear.

[LTb1ow]

Will there be an official rental thread?

[Blackbirdws6]

Will there be an official rental thread?

Yes.

[LTb1ow]

Ok, I like official.

[Dudbird113]

Matt, did tune time get done with ur car?

[LTb1ow]

Matt, did tune time get done with ur car?

Yes, see build thread. Will need to go back for full power pulls mid September.

[Dudbird113]

How much it put down on the base tune?

[LTb1ow]

Did not get a number, prob was not recorded as he did not go into boost tuning at all.

[Blackbirdws6]

Would luv to see the man and his ride behind the madness lol!:mrgreen:

Got your deposit in the mail. Thanks :)

[DadsZ28]

Thanx Brian looking forward to it.

This is the only post I understood from you. Are you running a drag tire and have a deposit? Feel free to PM me.

[LTb1ow]

So will this years rental have some filming and what not?

[Blackbirdws6]

So will this years rental have some filming and what not?

I'm working on a few options. Once I have some of the details finalized (besides the date and attendees), I will start a new official thread.

What about some food services, like an ice cream truck?

What about some food services, like an ice cream truck?

We are talking a platter of sandwiches/snacks, etc as opposed to a grill.

How many people can put a deposit down my buddys thinking of doing this.

[Blackbirdws6]

For the sake of this thread (and Mike's mangina) i edited my last post to keep this from turning into a mess. Sorry OP

No worries. We can save the trash talk for another thread or better yet, at the rental. I'm hoping this is all in good fun.

How many people can put a deposit down my buddys thinking of doing this.

Atco has been flexible with me regarding the number of cars. There are a few folks on the list who have put down their deposit but their car is still a work in progress (who's isn't?). With all that said, I have a call in with Atco this morning and will find out the max number of cars I can bring.

[Blackbirdws6]

I spoke with Atco and they provided some flexibility with the car count. If others want in that fit the criteria, let me know.

Will both lanes be open when we get there if we are gonna have a large turnout?

And or, will our large group prevent another group of cars...?

[Blackbirdws6]

Will both lanes be open when we get there if we are gonna have a large turnout?

And or, will our large group prevent another group of cars...?

I confirmed that both lanes will be open and ready when the rental begins. While this is no excuse for last year, the track needed to be cleaned and prepped due to a test & tune the day before. This won't be the case since we are scheduled for a Monday.

The first rental had the other AMG group due to a scheduling error on Atco's part. I have confirmed this is our rental so we won't be seeing another group of cars there.

[sweetbmxrider]

Could we request another group of cars to be there?

[Blackbirdws6]

Could we request another group of cars to be there?

If they fit into the # of cars allowed....perhaps. What did you have in mind?

[Mike]

I apologize to Brian for taking a hatchet to the thread, but oh well.

Someone make a rental thread in the bh for call out/ banter...

Lets keep this puppy clean for planning purposes, etc.

Good idea. Speaking for myself, I think it would be fun but dependant on how the day goes. As of now, I am renting a truck and trailer which unfortunately isn't all that cheap and needs to be back by a certain time avoid addiitional fees.

[Blackbirdws6]

Your going to need about 15 shots to get baby elephant brian to stomp around

15 shots within about 10 mins plus at least a happy hour beforehand.

By the way, an official thread is getting approved by BOA staff and should be posted shortly.
