Nick and North East Dragway

nick, this is with baby power. if i was at that tight track, prob would of hit the wall!

One could do that in Mexico running another . Hasn't stopped one from doing it though.

 

[Aandf1978]

yea and you have more power! you have street tires?

Yes street tires here. How far away is Hertford anyways??

From the mall about an hour...all highway...route 17 toward Elizabeth City, 4 lanes and should be zero traffic on a Sunday.

Thats a tight track! Too narrow.

 

[Greg Hazlett]

Whatever...no issues....with 500+....if your scared say so.

 

[mds08]

Like I said I didn't loose anything there. Not me, I'm not putting my car down that track. You have fun if you get yours back back in time. Have you ever run at that track and see how tight it is. Not scared at all, been to the track before in my cars,just not going to that one.

 

[Vbshelbygt]

Should be a fun time

 

[nv4gt ws]

yes it should!

 

[Vbshelbygt]

Hope Greg gets his stuff right would love to see him and Ray line up

Doug we need to cool some beer down and get our chairs ready for the day. Yea that would be a good run. Gotta have a car that will hold up, so we will see.

 

[Greg Hazlett]

Yep...run my car there 3 times...if there are cars running in the 5's and 6's that have no issues I don't understand why you keep saying it's narrow....now if your car isn't set up right with suspension/tires/psi there might be issues but as Ray pointed out that can happen anywhere.

Tony=500 hp
Jeremy 500+ hp
Greg=500 hp

None of us had any issues with traction/coming out of the groove and there were a lot of faster cars than us there that had no issues.

Best advice I was given was if you started a pass, got uncomfortable just take your foot off the gas and the car will correct, coast to the line and figure out what you did wrong.

That would be good; tq wise we are even, hp wise I have the advantage but I may not have the room needed to spool the Vortech up...with his PD blower he is going to be tough off the line.

I need the 1/4 mile to get into my power band; the cams, ported heads and blower come alive at 3500-4K.

Have you ever run any of your cars at Hertford?

If you won't run there what track will you run and when?

 

[mds08]

I don't like 1/8 mile tracks and I don't run my car. Been to the track with all my cars in the past. Could care less about it, I have a different agenda. It just leads to more problems. I like driving all my cars and don't like the idea of them being in the shop or on stands all the. There is always something that keeps breaking or always screwing up when you go past that point. When is it enough. I see it all the time on here and with people I know. I'm happy just like it is and wish you good luck.

 

[Greg Hazlett]

I understand that.

 

[mds08]

I understand that.

I will go and support everyone, just not racing.

 

[Vbshelbygt]

I just don't have the balls lol. Now Walter can race he is old school race guy
