I should be in...

Mezzy 08-25-2013 05:39 AM

I should be able to make it

L695speed 08-25-2013 08:23 PM

This better not be a bust like last year......:facepalm: Bloody sneaky bastards bringing daily drivers....:facepalm:

Anyway. I should be in, whether or not I race is up in the air, may depend on whether or not I feel I can launch the car, and rent a helmet. I know people go from the strip to the Chatterbox Cruise night after the strip closes, and I know a damn good ride to get there if people want to do that. Involves a road of local legend. And a few more twisty back ones. However, while I know it goes into late september easily, I don't know whether it will be an official cruise night, I can find out though.

However, that is only one suggestion. And there could be too many cars to make a fun drive out of it. But a drive to a place to eat would be ideal.

Wish I could and not to pat myself on the back, but this team building event is for all of the company VPs and a few select other folks.

BonzoHansen 08-27-2013 09:59 AM

oh, one of those events... nice

Jersey Mike 08-27-2013 03:02 PM

Don't worry, Brian; I think we can make this work. If (when?) the 'Bird isn't done in time, I'll take BlackBird to the meet. Win-Win!

Jersey Mike 08-27-2013 03:11 PM

BonzoHansen 08-27-2013 03:20 PM

zuuhlsT/A 08-27-2013 04:44 PM

Sold the Hawk and my 90 T/A is soooooo not even close to road worthy. Might run the TBSS down the track though. Never raced legally before lol. Do I need a helmet?

BonzoHansen 08-27-2013 06:57 PM

Yes

Helmet and long pants(no shorts)

zuuhlsT/A 08-27-2013 07:12 PM

thanks for the info. I'll see if I can borrow a helmet

grazi 08-27-2013 07:45 PM

They rent them there if you don't mind lice, bed bugs, and booty sweat.

Jersey Mike 08-27-2013 08:09 PM

I have one you can borrow, Kurt.

foxriderry 08-27-2013 08:13 PM

ive got one you can borrow as well kurt, i probably wont race seeings as my rear end would explode thanks to my new wide sticky tires =]=]

L695speed 08-28-2013 07:58 AM

May be able to borrow a helmet from a neighbor. But if anyone has a spare.... We have a helmet, but it doesn't have the almighty snell sticker on it....

My best was a 14.9 with the auto. I doubt I'll be running 14s, but considering the first time I took a manual car down the track, I lopped off nearly two seconds off my ET in three passes, I guess I could wind up in 14s in spite of the extra work to get the manual car down the track.

TaKid455 08-28-2013 09:27 AM

prob stop by. 9/21 is good, 9/28 - i'm out of town. Year of T/A attending TBD

The_Bishop 08-28-2013 11:30 AM

No Snell sticker = No run.
