Alabama Evo's -- Steele drag strip
 
My Bud and I went to the track for Friday night madness. It was a big crowd with the usual hot rods and lots of ricer imports and tons of bikes. the music was a blarring and the crowds were heavy at the start lines on both sides of the track. One big part atmosphere for sure.
I ran my personal best of 12.5 @ 111.4 with a 1.74 / 60ft. The track was slippery and getting worse as the night went on. My Bud did a 12.7 for his personal best to date. I feel we can do better when the track sticks better. We were all over the place in 1st and second. On 2 occassions I had to shut it down cause of getting sideways.
I anyone is looking for a fun filled Friday night come on out to Steele, the gates open at 9pm and they colse the staging lanes at 1am. So depending on the crowds you can get a good number of runs in. The cost is $10 to run all night. Hope to see you Alabama/Georgia people out there next Friday night. I'll be there trying to get my times lower, hoping to get a better launch and lower my 60fts.

man I was thinking about going to steele tonight. Was there a girl with a yellow evo there? Oh well hope it was safe:) Details Details

We were going to Steele but found out they had some sort of bike night there. So instead we drove down to Montgomery t race there and as usual we got rained out. This was the second time to drive to Montgomery only to have a rain-out, we are jinxed when it comes to Montgomery. I sure wanted to lower my times, maybe next weekend.

It may would be a good night;)

Q@EvoPowerMods Aug 1, 2007 06:49 PM

I'm going this friday and am talking to other Evos that want to come. Let me know and maybe we could meet-up before...

AdamsssEvo Aug 1, 2007 07:06 PM

My buddy and I maybe up for it. I'll try and let you know something. He's been thinking bout a 350z but one good ride in someones evo may CHANGE is mind.
Anyways, maybe I'll bust a high 14 in the 07VWGTI(haha).

Oh by the way I use to drive an evo too. I've been down grading in through the years from 03evo to vwr32 to now 07 vwgti

Q@EvoPowerMods Aug 1, 2007 07:41 PM

Sounds good, let me know PM me when you decide. Riding in a 12 second Evo will change your buds mind.

TouringBubble Aug 1, 2007 07:45 PM

BTW, it was a 12.6, not a 12.7 =). I'll have some more parts soon, so I might head back up there. I kinda feel that it's mute with this crazy heat recently ... no one on boost is going to be running well in this weather.

Q@EvoPowerMods Aug 1, 2007 08:11 PM

I'm definately going friday night. I"ll have my other 2 tires mounted and am gonna try out a few ideas on how to lower my time. We should meet-up for dinner before we go up. C said he was coming so we should have a few Evos there.
