Nic SHOULD even be faster than that. With much more seat time of course (not knocking you at all, just saying)

Pretty sure my wife can drive a car with Nic's mods faster than a 7.9, probably texting while doing it

Touche :snoopfacepalm:



And that wasn't a knock at you, just saying the mods you have

Midnight11 06-13-2013 11:53 PM

Well okay I took it as a knock bc I'm tired of people always saying shit. I've dragged race 3 times and have gotten better every time. My slammed stance kills me and I'm just too lazy to change it lol

Luke 06-14-2013 12:00 AM

I kind of figured you did, that's why I mentioned it. No offense man, I was just referring to the power your car makes and was being a smartass. Once you get the burnout and 60' down I'm sure your times will get a lot better.

Nic and I left. I lost the Courtesy Flush on round two of the buybacks. Beat a 08 challenger by a buses, and got taken up top by about a car or so by a worked over TT 300ZX.

I had tons of fun and will definitely be back!

Courtesy Flush 06-15-2013 02:38 AM

Made it to the finals. Lost to the Tesla model S.
I kept getting my hopes up about him running out of batteries.

Got some videos to upload as well.

Badass man! I definitely need to get a real tune and a few other goodies.

I wish I could have hung around, but I had to get home to the dog. That was a good run we had going...until I didn't quite put it in 3rd. :lol:

NoSlowGT 06-15-2013 10:43 AM

I think that Tesla surprised everybody. Those things are so damn quick I almost felt bad for the guys that were racing him lol.

I know! That shit was insane!!

Paul just told me that y'all were there last night. I would've come said hey if I had known that.

Get him to join over here. Stop dealing with Chris. Haha

Rforbes 06-17-2013 08:16 AM

It is a great atmosphere out there but it is just near impossible for me to get any kind of traction even with drag radials. I go to the second round in the outlaw before spinning them half way down the track. I wish they would hold this at Northstar or something. Still a lot of cool cars. The Tesla was bad.

sasquash1984 06-17-2013 09:35 AM

hey guys hows it going

I wanted to see that truck run. It probably would stop the earth if it could get traction.

Naw I'm running super car

fordplay 06-18-2013 11:56 AM

Oh. OK well I wish you luck in that class sir.
Dirty you didn't see it... that truck is ridiculous awesome

sasquash1984 06-18-2013 12:38 PM

Trust me I have my work cut out for me between the 2 gtrs the 89 fox body who went to the finals and that 750 hp zl1 that I almost beat and the blue camaro half of the class will beat me but it stills fun

Re: Texas Motor Speedway Drag Nights
 
How fast are these cars running? Is the track prepped and does it hook?

sasquash1984 06-18-2013 01:04 PM

Each class varies I usually get to 93 at the end, it's not a true 1/8 mile non prepped just asphalt. I heard 1 car in Sportsman is running 101 mph lol

Maybe that Tesla. Haha

But seriously, that is hauling ass in 1/8 for the rules they have laid out. Most of the sportsman class should be around 90 trap on 1/8, maybe a little more.

fordplay 06-19-2013 07:33 AM

So who is going Friday, I'm still questioning the Tesla in the v8 class...

sasquash1984 06-19-2013 09:06 AM

I'm going again

Its fair, especially considering he loses power as the battery drains.
Since the cars are fairly new, there is no perfect class.

Problem is he hits full power out of the gate, whereas we have to build rpm to get to full power. He said he spins, but its minimal.

Midnight11 06-19-2013 10:51 AM

if we get a good group going i might

Smurf50 06-19-2013 11:12 AM

I am tempted to go since I actually have a Friday free :) I haven't run the car, and it would be nice to get some baseline launches in!

I probably won't be there this week. I'll spectate next week though. Going to definitely go again the night before the Dyno day at Brooks, and then again that following week.

I should have my tune ready by then. :D

01BeansGt 06-19-2013 05:08 PM

Are et streets allowed in the super car class?. I consider them drag radials, even tho they look like slicks.
