Firebird TONIGHT 5/15/09

[OurZoo]

I didn't find out until last night that it was a definite go. I suppose I could have posted last night lol. Sorry about that. Anyhoooooooo, who is down? I'm meeting Ritchy and RoadracingSRT8 down there at 7PM. So far we got 3 Jeeps. Let's get some LXs to come out and play with their cousins. See yas there!

I just got new Hoosiers mounted, and I was thinking of trying to make it to Speedworld tomorrow night. Anybody familiar with the programs out at Firebird have a guess what the crowd might be like tonight?

If my folks are settled in, I might be able to head out thataway.

All I know is that it's the Friday Night Drags. I don't think too many people will be there consideriing it's 104 right now. Come on down Mike!

Firebrid is always busy last time i was there i did like 5 runs, but its well worth it because they actually prep the track. So Jr air them slicks up good. I left the line in my mustang at 5 grand and hooked.

I forgot I have irrigation tonight, so that might throw another hitch in it. Not looking likely, but we'll see.

[nightrunner]

if i didnt have to work tomorrow i would go. Just getting up at 3:30am sucks

I'm leaving my house by 6.

It was hotttt and the truck was not too happy. There was about 75 other cars there braving the heatsoak. Everyone I talked were disappointed in their times. I knew I wasn't going to break any sound records, but wanted to try the new Nitto NT05s out. I have yet to hear a tire come loose and squeal. They are the sticky icky folks!

Downright depressing the difference temperature and DA makes. Last time I took the GCSRT8 out was months ago with cargo and practically a full tank of gas but the temps were in the 50s. I believe the best time I ran was a 13.25 then. Tonight, I had half a tank of gas. This time I pulled the subs, mats, babyseat, and other extra bs and my times still sucked.

On the positive, I beat an Eclipse, Mustang GT, C6, and another GCSRT8. Run #5 where I fell asleep before hitting the gas, I lost to the same GCSRT8 I had beaten.

you just need to bring your own cold air with ya. strap a bottle on that thing and run a 50 shot. and your times will greatly improve. you will have alot better DA. and that thing will be a rocket.

I'd love to create my own atmosphere, but I'd be scared of blowing myself up. One of my buddies did all the corrections for me. At least I'm in the 12s.........
