Street Tires Only Night @ GLD

I'd love to come to one of these, but it's hard to go during the week, and finding out at 8am doesn't help much...lol

Teri wants to go with me again tomorrow night. I hope you guys are all as pumped as we are. It's looking like another great night for drag racing!!! Come on up and join us, if you can.

Ill be there around 6:30

Do they do any prep on street tire night?

I never saw them putting down thp. Funniest thing is I was hooking better. I think it was because they weren't spraying down very much water in the burnout box. It makes me so mad when people just drive straight through the burnout box and drag all of the water to the starting line on their front tires. It ruins the first 25 ft. off of the starting line.

Do no if I can make it tomorrow, mabey wed night...

I'm going Wed. too. I got my repairs done this A.M. I'm good to go, pending a disaster at work. lol.

bump for tonight. Me and Teri will be there sometime around 5:00 PM for tech and a cool down. The strip is usually open at 6:00 and running. I'm trying out something new tonight, stay tuned for the vids, lol. .000 or bust! My best r/t to date is a .010.

I want to come soooo bad, all of a sudden I have oil leaking from somewhere. Gonna have to put her up and see if I can find it. Not sure I should race with an oil leak??

Oil problem fixed...just a leaky filter...whew...now waiting on my damn son!

Ok, I'm officially hooked...that was awesome!

Nice runs Tom!

Glad to had fun Tom(fido),and congrats on your ne PB Tom!!!!Next time you will win the final run!!!

Thanks for hanging with my son Tom, we both had a great time!!

I'm glad you liked it. Next time you go it will be more relaxing. Now that you know the ropes.

Nice runs Tom and Tom....Congrats on the new PB Tom(Chaos), you've got a sick ass beast right there..... and Tom(Fido) where are your times... id like to see how our 6's do.... Looked to be in the 14's?!? what gas were you running with? did you use the predator?

14's, I wish...more like 16's

Next time I will be more comfortable going all out. Still had the jitters I'm on the left.

ahh... well those are still good runs... your R/T is good for the first time.... next time just remember..... its a race.... mash that pedal and dont let up until the end....

Next time I'm gonna try autostick was too afraid to let go with both hands...

autostick would be good..... run the gear a little higher and pull more power from it... damn i wish i had autostick

Your r/t is awesome Tom. No need for improvement there! Just about perfect! Congrats.
