Thread: Anyone want to go drag racing?

    Default Anyone want to go drag racing?

    I don't know why but i have this urge to go back out to the Motorplex. Of course it's more fun when you have cars of the same type and it's a more of a drivers race than anything. I'm thinking maybe early august. August 10th(Friday) is the first street night then another one the next week on the 17th.

    I'll go if I can get my car running right.

    I think it would be fun to see how fast my 1.6 could wheeze down the track, but I have AX races on the following Saturday for both of those dates, so I gotta get up at 5:30.

    Keep us posted on the street nights, as I think it would be fun to get a group together. Since I had the lowest HP at the last dyno day, then perhaps I will also have the lowest Miata ET at street night.

    You may have the lowest ET but that doesn't mean you will be losing. I'll check out the autocross schedule and try to get a date for you to come on out.

    turboduane you can bring the accord for me to race, i don't need a turbo miata. hah. jk.

    Is that where you dress in women's clothes and see who can run the fastest? If so, you young kids can do it. I'm too old for that!

    I would love to see you run some tens, so would the track crew. The fastest miata they have seen out there is twelves i believe. You think you could have the car back together by the 10th or 17th?
