Hill461

I'll be there and it's going to be HOT!


GTO George

Lots of sun...89 Friday 92 Saturday but humidity should be reasonable both days. See you this weekend.

That's cool compared to here?

:D

BG when its hot humid there can feel just as bad as middle Florida in July!

Yeah!!I will be there PONTIAC US NATIONALS!!!

Going to the No Box Nationals this weekend. Same as last year :(. Hopefully next year they are scheduled on different weekends

98 degrees on Saturday!
Loaded my car on the trailer yesterday, can't wait!!!!


GTO George

Weather just got updated........99 degrees on Saturday, real racing weather!


GTO George

we will be there with both cars this year

Oh GEE........my lucky day! :)


GTO George

Ill be there.

;) :D

Race safe and drink a lot of water!!;)

Jim

I am trying to get the car back together.
Wish they would have this a little earlier so we can see some records broke.

Yea, I don't think too many records will be broken in 99 degree temps.........on the other hand I can see a whole lot of ALCOHOL being consumed!! :)


GTO George

I will be there

Can you start a thread on how the RA5 car ran? Give us your review!!

Fixed it for you Jim :D

ra5 not done yet I just got valves yesterday so BADA** Don can get them ready when he has time and shooting for Norwalk. I will start a thread when its together and running! I cant wait to hit the starter!

Quite a few will be looking. good luck!

Your going to beat up on George twice as much? :D Your going to give him a complex!

I'll be up Saturday. See you then.

So pilling into the pits and who do i see but the quickest and fastest nitrous powered Pontiac door car! So far good turn out!


GTO George

I thought Big Chief had turbos? :)

Pictures? And/or videos?

Car count?

Don't have a car count .......twice, mayb 3 times more then last year! I'll try to post pics. Track is greasy, speacily down track! Only a few fast cars have made it down. 95 degrees out!!

GTO George

Kinsler?

Nope! This guy runs 180 mph!



GTO George

Dam* I did not think they allowed Pontiacs with SB Ford engines to race in the event ;)

Tom V.

George...did they run a gamblers race today? If so who won?

well who is it

I believe George is refering to Dick Fulton Jim

In case you missed it, Dick won King street at Brainard a few weeks ago. 7.73 at 179.47 crossed scales at 3180 lbs. Still pullin power and sorting 60ft. Havent heard any results yet today.
(I'll be there tomorrow to see it)

7.78 @ 178.xx mph and 7.72 @ 178.xx mph I think with track still pretty 'greasy'.

Tomorrow will be hotter and more humid.

:)

Thanks John. Track usually hooks good...rained early this past week and if they had their street type drags tuesday it probably didnt help. Hopefully they can get the track surface better for tomorrow. 99 degree temps wont help anyone though tomorrow.
Glad they have covered stands and plenty of shady spots... I can cool off at water park later...reduced price after 3.

:D:D:D

George- please keep us posted on qualifying runs for the "Outlaw Street Heads Up" race.

Well I'll try but I get busy with racing also had (still) some carb issues . Did manage to get a pass in went 8.22 @ 166 on a HOT 95 degree day, oh yea also won the burnout contest......it's on YouTube and Face Book! Shows what 1,100 ft lbs of torque will do! :)


GTO George

Updates? Been pretty quiet

Basically quiet the whole day (since 8:00 am) and george is pretty good about posting up stuff. Hope all is OK at the race.

Tom V.

George had to order new needle/seat...no one had the size needed. Dick Won Outlaw street..Earlier in day went more mph than KRE's NA dragster. Dicks still tuning launch and its slowly getting there. Still running only 1 small !gun till 60 ft gets where he wants it.

Any other info on who ran outlaw street and there ET's?

That was my first pass this year, I was actually off it early just wanted to make sure everything was ok.........it was! slippery track 95 degrees.........I'm happy. :)


GTO George

Ok so how did the qualifying look in outlaw street? Did Dick have to mash the button and use calendar pages for delay to win against 9.0 cars like me?

Dick ran great even in the heat of the day when others couldn't get down the track and had no issues doing it! track was ok yesterday but was crap Friday!

Any pics or vids?

Sorry about not reporting what was going on but I had carb issues ALL DAY, finally got them resolved Satuday evening. Need to order parts from Qwick Fuel Monday morning, I'm sticking around for the Nostolgia Hot Rod Reunion. Damn is 95 degrees HOT!! :)


GTO George

glad you got it figured out George. see you Wed.

George destroyed the competition in the burnout contest. John force couldn't have dun any better. :jaw:
John (GM005) pulled the most wheelies in a single pass ! At least 4. :eek:
He's accepting donations toward the purchase of a set of wheelie bars.
My Grandson RB lll won Sportsman. :first:
