David,
BG looks good ,but I will not be able to attend this year. Other events
will be be taking up most of my time. I have a trip to Lodi , new Jersey to
celebrate my Sister (Sister Mary Bridget ) Golden jubilee of consecrated life.
This takes place the first week in Arpil.
I my be able make BG next year. I'll see how its goes.
thanks

In effort to try and get more guy's to participate in this event instead of being spectator's.
Trying to level the playing field out, how about going for 1/4 mile MPH for everyone ? Instead of ET. Just post a good MPH number. Easy on the drive train and it will allow the less experienced get a crack at a run or two and have fun doing it.
Just trying to get some motivation going here guy's.

I've never had mine on any kind of track and it's close to stock (Marc's chip and a new Corsa system). This is getting very tempting however. What type of safety gear is required? Does the cost go down as the number of participants go up?

Since this is a ZR-1/C4/Grand Sport Registry event at BG, don't any of them want to drag race? Has anyone been in contact with the other groups? Or is this just ZR-1-ers? I am surprised we couldn't get a fairly large group that wants to race. Perhaps to get the track for next year in advance. Curious. --Bob

I may have to step up and take the bull by the horns here, Please post up if you will be running at Beech Bend on Thursday the 16th for a few hours. This will be informal drag racing. But fun none the less.
Please feel free to invite anyone to drag race with us.


Took the liberty of putting down the names of people that posted here. Let us know if you would like your name eliminated.

I'll refresh this post so we know how many people we have up to it.

PLEASE BE ADVISED :
The club is not backing us at the drag strip. This is beyond my control guy's.
WE are doing this on our own, I have to personally comitt to this event. If we don't get up 15 people we may not have any racing.
In the past I covered the cost for racing. Due to other thing's beyond my control (SANDY) I'm unable to cover this cost upfront. Need help !
As of 3/20/2013 we have :

1- Frank U.
2- Pete
3- Ronstar
4- Bob warp 10
5- Phil
6- msmoore
7- Kevin Costello
8- Fully Vetted
9-
THANK YOU ALL !




KUDOS go's out to Wayne Hale for trying to keep our drag racing alive ! Also too some one that used to be a driving force in the club that would like to remain unanimous due to political tensions.

At this point, I'm 95% committed. Might be a schedule issue. What time would we be meeting there?
