right now it looks like its going to be the feb 28th

 

As a side note....anybody want some Hotchkis lowering springs? GReat drop, great ride, and they really don't compromise the car's balance at all. Let me know.

$100 shipped or picked up.

BTW, I finally ordered my CF front lip.

 

Good news here. Just got the email yesterday. Chk it out.

Darlington Dragway will be open this January and February on Saturdays, from 1 PM until 5 PM for Grudge, Test N Tune. We will be open as long as the weather forecast is above 45 degrees. Please check the web site or call the track to make sure we will be open before you head out to the track. January 3 will be the first Test N Tune date in 2009. We will return to our normal Wednesday / Saturday schedule in March. Our full 2009 schedule will be posted on our web site soon. Visit www.darlingtondragway.com for all event information.

 

Sick that is great news!! Actually i wouldn't mind heading out to Darlington this Saturday if anyone else can?

 

BJ, I'll pm you my number. Give me a call Friday or something to make plans on going. Before we head out though, we need to check and see if the weather is straight.

 

Got your PM Lecon...i just checked the weather...its supposed to be mostly sunny & 60 degrees...sounds great to me...as of right now I am 100% going...who else wants to go??

 

Any of you guys planing to go to the nc/sc meet? It seems so hard to get the evo owners to do anything, lets have some fun and have a nice evo meet.

 

i would like to do something before my son is born, but also something before i head out to hawaii in june. its going to suck having to leave all the friends I've found in the community.

 

when is it and where?

Yep. Definitely looks like a good bet. I could make a weekend of it.

 

Some updates on the feb28th meet. I now have a photographer coming to the meet to take all the pictures plus the cruise to downtown Charlotte to take more pics. I need people to singed up for the meet and to show up because all of this is covered by me $$$. If i don't get enough people the meet will be canceled, i have till the end of this week to make the deal with the owners of the kart racing for the parking lot and the rates for the races. All i'm asking is to come out and have some fun. The link to the photographer work is on the main thread for the meet and some pictures of his work.
Thanks

 

C'mon guys, it's just a drive to Charlotte for a meet with some hanging out and such. Only one day. You should try and come.

Anyway, in my neverending quest for besting Mr. Lowe's RS, the Agent, in the quarter mile and possibly lucking up and running a 10, I went to Darlington yesterday. Arrived there at 1 and there may have been 20 cars there, including the ones the people running the track drove. I was excited thinking I'd get a lot of runs to practice and maybe actually do something right. Anyway, I noticed they were still prepping the track even then and it was actually warmer there than in Columbia when I left. It was still overcast and a little foggy. No runs. Hour and half later...no runs. BJ arrives at 3....no runs. They didn't finally start running until 3:30 or so, and that was the race cars, that do what? Break. BJ & I finally make it into the staging lanes, there were only 5 "street" cars running. Fog sets in, mists, temps drop at least 10 degrees. Track closes down when they can't dry it out. So, we don't get a run!

But all in all, we would've gotten multiple runs so I don't know if that was because nobody knew it was open or what. It would be an excellent place to go if you want to race 'cause of the limited number of cars. It was nothing like Wednesdays during the year.
