How will the 1LE cars be classified on the fast list? Will there be a new specific list added just for stock 1LE cars if need be? They do have wider tires, different gearing(trans and diff), and NPP as an option.

Probably do a separate stock list for sure and I'd say bolt-ons too.

This thread seemed to stall so I thought I would throw something out. Let's hear some racing stuff. Anything will do. I'll go.

I think I have a racing addiction. This is the stack that has accumulated since I bought the car in November of '09. Gotta be a couple hundred slips here. I have no reason why I keep them and my wife has tried several times to throw them out.

Had planned to go racing tonight but we have a weak front that stalled right over us and the weather is cool, but it has been drizzling all day. The front will be through by friday and the weather will be killer for racing: low temps, low humidity, low DA, But I have to work. This could be our last cold snap of the year. We don't have too much "winter" left and I just hate missing a trip to the track when the weather cooperates. If our winter is over, then it gives me time to get together a plan of attack for the best way to crack into the 10's.

ps: sorry for the giant pic

I still have all my slips too. I won't get rid of them. And like yours my wife doesn't quite want them around much either. It's good to track improvements and see where you can improve.

Impatiently awaiting the tracks to open up around here. Still over a month here :/

Yea I think in southern Ohio there was a track that was supposed to open yesterday but Im pretty sure it was probably to cold for it. Almost wish I lived in Texas....Almost.

Our tracks are open year round, but they are only "good" during the cool months. I run almost .5 slower during the summer. We have a cold front coming through today and another in a couple of days. This might be our last cold front of the season. I'm heading to the track tonight hoping for some -DA.

Yea in Kansas over this past summer it was blazing hot and it just killed times. But for the most part Im not too worried about the ET's. Im just out there to have fun. Its nice to run real good times but in reality my best pass iv done isn't my fastest. Just love taking out the 5.0's, hoping to surprise a few Corvettes this year.

unforgiven · 03-25-2013, 02:25 PM

Troy SS · 03-25-2013, 03:45 PM

I would like to run to get new times with my mods, but oh yea, phoenix went from 2 official drag strips to ZERO in the matter of a couple months. So now its no racing or a 3 hour drive to Tucson!

Pretty sure I'll keep 2 top spots. 1/8 mile bone stock LS3 and the stock tire 60' record. There hasn't been much movement on the bone stock lists in a while, and I don't have the wallet to chase the other categories. I'm happy to just sit back and watch.

Yeah. It's crappy. But shoot me a pm sometime. Depending on my work schedule we might be able to make a trip to a track.
