Fest Drags

Since no one else has brought it up yet I thought I would start a little discussion.

Who will have the fastest time down the track? The fastest MPH?

And no it won't be me........Mike??? If his car is ready!! But What if it isn't?

Let the games begin!!!

Re: Fest Drags

Vortech from Canada said he was coming to the Fest and he has run 9.7's I believe.
Also, aren't you bringing some stud hoss with a 1200 hp Viper with you?
He ought to lay out some pretty good times.

Perhaps Marks new monster (Orange Krush) can lay out some strong times too.

I'm sure there will be a sleeper or two in the crowd as well.

If you get your beast a runnin' you might be putting out some strong numbers yourelf, Mr Jack!

Mike

Re: Fest Drags

It is a new setup AGAIN and no time to get all the bugs worked out. I just hope to have a car there! LOL
The guy with the Viper isn't going to make it. He is just way to busy to come this year because of work.
Better watch out for the Houston gal in G's car though! She can DRIVE!!

Re: Fest Drags

My car will not push any of the top cars, certainly not a single digit car, maybe 10.5, but that should be about it...

Re: Fest Drags

A 10.5 pass wouldn't be nuttin to be ashamed of, Mark

For what it's worth, it looks like my engine will be finished tomorrow and Matt will start the install soon after. He feels pretty confident that he can get her done and trailer her to the Fest before the drags.
Nick says if Matt get's her ready, he can get her tuned before she leaves. Since Nick is one of the best tuners I've ever seen, I believe him.

It looks like break-in of the new block/engine will take place on the track at BB. I doubt if you'll see that recommended in the owners manual

Re: Fest Drags

Mine will be broken in on the 780 mile trip to BG...

Mike, you are right, 10.5 is nothing to be ashamed of, and I am not ashamed at all, just saying that you big boys have cars that will do much lower numbers.

And of course, I certainly can't drive the car to that time, hell I will be lucky to get below 12.5 in the car, that is why I need digger at the track to try and see what she can do...

Or any of you guys that know what you are doing.

Well Mark, if time permits, I'll see what Tony runs in your car and then I'll drive it just so you can have a good time slip!

Hell G, I don't put that many miles on it in a year!

Let's see....500 miles divided by 1/4 mile is ....

Hmmm.......let's see......All I need is a drag pack......a pre-approved loan for the Orange Krush(just in case)....and someone to make sure your colostomy bag is empty so you have no excuses this time, and I think I can take your oversized-snail driven beast!!

Man, you sure know how to push my buttons, old man!!
