LOL, I was wondering more along the lines of the differences between Dry Chemical, C02, Halon and Halotron and which would be best for in our cars??

I am thinking of getting a 2.5 pounder for the car because of what happened to Stig.

BTW, I just noticed that I have been bumped all the way down to 29 on the Official V8 Fast list from the 13-14ish area. I guess that is what happens when you slack off and quite going to the 1/4 mile track for the twisties.

Not my call bro, not my shop. I can only sell what Matt has agreed to sell.

TBone · 07-08-2013, 08:42 PM

Nah, I am done with 1/4 mile. You spend $50 to get all of two minutes of actual track time, if you are lucky. Most of your time is spent in pit lane waiting to get up to the line and actually race.

When I go to the road course I get two hours of track time and actually get higher speeds than I would at the 1/4 mile track. Plus I can go left and right.

Hahahaha ... The track I go too is flooded with ricers ... Every 4th one breaks down and makes good use of their neon polished aluminum dead hooks. It does suck waiting for them to clean up the track. SuperchargedSS made a pit stop in here ragging on my track. Lol. At least it's only $20 here and your lucky to get 4 passes.
Never been on a road track, how much does it usually run ?

thahemp · 07-08-2013, 09:46 PM

More around here. $85 for a dayvpass to kansas speedway, and $165 each if you can get 5 people together for Hallett in oklahoma. Those 5 people get the track to themselves though.
