Tintmasters Street Legal Drag Race MAKEUP DATE *OCT 9th*

[btleier]

I'll most definitely be in. The cooler weather will help me into the 12s.

[tqisking]

How is tech for one of these deals?

[tqisking]

Oh and track prep?

[DaveH]

They try to prep the track, but with all the street tires going down the track it's a pretty tall order to keep traction good. Usually early in the day it's pretty decent and then gets worse as the day goes on. I think gate fee is $30? I could be off on that.

What about a comp license... all I have is my IHRA one anymore..

I've never had them ask for my license, not saying they won't but I'd highly doubt it.

Haven't really seen anyone asked for a license, I believe there is 1 or 2 of the other bike guys running 9's without a license.

He doesn't race a bike.

Ahhh, so does that mean he's more likely to get checked or less?

[2wheeler]

They will most likely pay more attention to a car running 9s.

[tqisking]

Hmm the last time out my car ran 9.75@138 I have picked up some power and fully expect the car to run real low 9.40's more than likely 9.30's once it is all sorted out... but I would guess it will run in the 9's... Maybe I will just make 1 pass to see what it does, or as many as I can get away with

Question

do they use any glue/prep at all during the street legals?

[Top End]

That's up for debate. He claims its sprayed and dragged but evidence tends to lean towards no glue and just being dragged.

[dubbsy]

And I don't think it gets prepped during the day at all either.

Trying to decide if there's a chance in hell that I'll get the car to hook.

[z31]

Im gonna go up and race on saturday. It is what it is.

[Chirp5957]

Holy. Balls. Ton-O-Cars.

[Slowica]
