count me in for 2morrow but i'll be dere around 7 after i get out of work

 

If it doesn't rain this friday I'll be going. I can't do today - i'm working in NYC and by the time I get home it'll be 7pm.

 

it's supposed to be mid 80s all weekend ! No Rain!
But if many people arent going then i guess i could go the following friday.

 

Well me and 3 others went to the track today last minute just for the hell of it...


it was nice and empty there...


it was my 1st time EVER racing...


yea i know i should have raced at allll those VIP's i went to

but i didnt do to great.....

17.005 @82

keep in mind it was my 1st ever time racing, and for some reason i was nervous as all hell, and i made a mistake of dumping the clutch 3 consecutive times....


hop hop hop hop hop..thats all i got

i have to learn how to feather it out and reduce spin n hop

 

I don't think I'll be able to make it tonight - my boss is sending me to a job in Flemington and by the time i'd get down to etown it wouldn't be worth it.

Next friday?

 

i have to buy a fire jacket and helmet.. but im down for anytime soon.. just let me know

 

 

^and i rent my helmet there for 4 bucks

 

14.1 @ 101mph!!! woot. woot!
next friday anyone?!

 

tC_2NeR - try just rolling out on 1st then get into 2nd right away.

 

You only need a fire jacket if you're aftermarket F/I (Supercharger or Turbo). The jackets are $80 at raceway park. Probably the cheapest you can find a new jacket.

I forgot mine last night though... but he let me run anyway :D

Oh yeah - and what's more: I beat my best time so far... ran a 14.223 @ 95.87 MPH. Yep - Gizmo beat me (But i'm happy! She'd better beat me - she makes more power than I do! :D)

 

You need a fire jacket if you are turbocharged.. and you have to buy the $125 helmet there is you run under a certain time.

but yea ive got the money to buy em down there so let me know when were all goin down

 

You're turboed?

If you run under 14 seconds you need a full face helmet that's all. I haven't run faster than 14.00 yet so I'm ok with what I have.

 

yea Greddy.. on for under 1k miles now and im only on the base tune.. so idk how well ill do.

They sell the full helmets there for $125.. and there nice too


oo I just noticed.. we'll have 3 greddy turbocharged tc's.. picture time

 

hey nick u have better tires compared to me - that gives u a little advantage.
im going for 13.9 next time so... :p

 

Trade wheel/tires? Lol.

Recliner - if you have street tires you probably won't hit 13's. Especially not on the base tune.

 

yea I was having alotta trouble getting my Nitto's to stick.... I think i should let some air out

plus it was my first time racing....lol i know i dindt race at the 10,000 VIP's i went to

so i was a bit anxious at the light, and not ready

ive been practicing launching a bit tho so i dont look like a fool next time and run a 17.005@83 lol


i realized getting on the gas and up on the clutch at like a certain point and not slamming it gives me a good launch in 1st gear.....my shifting is fine, all i have to worry about is launch


i wish u guys can help me but u both got autos

 

i can make it if it is on Friday.

 

Yea I know.. Im on falken ziex 512.. pos tires

once I get my azenis on, 3" exhaust, and a real tune im down


but that wont be for about a month and a half.. but im also down to go before then, ill just have to get the ziex's real sticky

 

yes - I believe we'll be going this coming friday again. It's $24 for time trials on Fridays. If you get there before 7pm it's a good bet you'll get at least 3 runs in.
