    Taking it off the Streets, Another Solo2

    Toronto F Body Solo 2 event #3

    I am the Director for the solo 2 events and would love to see more Lx'rs out there, especially see what a SRT8 could do. I will be using my Magnum R/T this event and have run it at the last 2 events for a couple runs. This is a safe legal way to enjoy your car.

    Hope too see you there.

    Price is:

    $25 for Club members
    $35 for non members

    8:30-9:30am registration
    9:30-10:00 drivers meeting and walk through
    10:00 first car
    12:00-1:00 lunch (Depending on numbers, we may race through lunch)
    4:00 Approximate finish of the last car, I want to see if we can get a minimum of 6 runs in. More if possible.
    4:00-5:00 clean up.

    So no one?

    Is everyone into drag racing and show only?

    I was racing a 325xi at the last event with the Magnum and managed to beat him. I had the hp but he had a 700lb advantage and awd to pull out of the corners. All my suspension is stock too, no springs nothing.

    Hope maybe a couple of you can come out. Drop by and watch if you are in the area.

    If I was in the area I'd be delighted to join you! How are your run times, compared to the other guys?

    Myself and TTMR run our SXT/AWD's in Solo events down here in Ohio, USA! Mine's a Charger, his is a Magnum. This is my first year at it, his second. He's also running racing tires, so he's a few seconds ahead of me on run times. We also just ran a PDX at Mid Ohio Sports Car Course yesterday!

    Next up for me will be some much-needed suspension mods, in about a month or so...

    As my friend in the SCCA says... "Safety Fast!"

    Well we had a great day today. No rain all day. You could see it all around us, but nothing fell. We all got 7 runs in by 2:30, the normal is 6 by 5pm. I did see a Black Charger pull in to the lot around 2:45, was it one of you guys?

    I beat the living pee out of the Maggie and beat several F Bodies on raw time and with in .5 secs of a suspension upgraded 98 Vette. I made him work for it too.

    Hopefully we can see a few of guys out next year. I think there might be a video or 2 of my Magnum. I'll post them up when they get posted.

    Proof of the abuse!





    Well I did manage to be with in .4 sec of a 98 Vette with suspension mods and with in 1.5 secs of all but 2 cars on a 70 sec course. With paxxing I finished 4th out of 18 cars and was only .09 sec out of third and it was a 2002 Firehawk. 1st and 2nd were the 2006 Canadian Champion and his brother.

    All in all the Magnum did very well.

    We wanted to come and watch, but went away for the weekend. We would just be watching.

    I am not ready to put the Maggie through that at this time.

    Will try for the next one. Don't stop posting on these events!!

    Our club only does 3 per year and this was the final one for the year.This year was so popular we are considering 4 events next year.

    The event with the Mustang club was a lot of fun having similar cars competing. I think the LX cars ar a good fit as well, especially the Challenger and Charger. The SRT8 should be very competitive, if I gave the cars a hard time that I did in an RT, in an SRT8 I would have owned them.

    I am seriously thinking about a Challenger RT to replace the Magnum next spring.

    Hopefully next year we can see some LX cars out.
