<![CDATA[August 6-7th Street Legals]]>So, it is getting pretty close, just want to see who is planning on being there (hopefully everyone!). I am planning on racing the beater. I got some BFG drag radials that will be going on it when I get back to town. Let's see what drivetrain components I can break on this car!! haha. Hopefully the weather is nice and everything turns out good. See you there, just look for the ugliest car at the track and you will find me!

These guys put on a heck of a show, I'm looking forward to watching them. I'm guessing there will be good track prep. 😄

I'll have to pay a visit to Mr. Laske on the way to the track. 🙂

The point was that drag racing is MOST like SPL (hence the reason there is a DB Dragracing circuit...pretty similar and very smart thinking on the part of Wayne Harris for coming up with that idea as well) competition and autocross is MOST like sound quality competitions. I'm not saying that just because you like drag racing means your an SPL freak, just that the two sports are similar to each other in how they operate.

i think he knew that, but was just giving you MORE crap.

That's a horrible comparison. Because I am a drag racer, but when it comes to audio I would much rather have an SQ system. Therefor your theory is flawed.

And in closing, if you're not there on the 6th and 7th Chuck, you are a wuss. Haha!

Ok, here's my final analogy for those that want to argue that at least w/ 1/4 mile racing you can compare your results to someone in CA, FL, VT, IA, AK, AZ, AR, etc.... This is true, you can do that, however it is really similar to stereo competition. Drag racing is very much like SPL (sound pressure level), easy to measure results to verify how much power you are putting out. SQ (sound quality) is more similar to autocross, as it is more of an art to make all the components work together for a good balance. I've always been more of an SQ fan than SPL. Think about it, would you rather listen to 48 hertz all day long on your radio or would you rather listen to a wide spectrum of sounds covering nearly all octaves of human hearing?

I have beaten that car so bad, I don't think it will even do 14's anymore. I put 3,000 roadcourse miles on it this year and with a car with 150K on it, it needs a rebuild bad, tranny going out and engine is leaking oil.

I am hoping to bring one of my new toys, that is if I can get the fuel injection working right and get exhaust on it. Or what the hell, I could bring my girlfriends 4cyl fiero with 190K on it. I bet it would do a 20 sec 1/4 mile, lol.

I still got in about a dozen passes. They'll have things going more smoothly next time, or people are going to be pissed.

I might stop out one of the days for a little bit. Hopefully there will be a better turn out then last time and both lanes are open. Last time I got there and 15 min later the bosnians car broke and that wasted like an hour.

Everybody also left like 2 hours early, ohwell I got alot more runs in because by about 6 there was only about 10 cars running.

It's a 2 day event, you must be able to make it out to one day?

There is another TM day scheduled in October I believe.

don't know. the way the next month looks it's work 6 days a week and ambulance shifts Sundays. Once we get into August it'll probably be more of the same or 7 days/week work.

Oh well, money is good right?

and 32 passes? psh, I can damn near make that in one event 😛

Yeah me too... I was all telling my buddies about this fast Automatic WRX and then they shut the track down right as he was getting ready to go.

At least make a couple passes chuck... I wont be going to Auto-X in St. Cloud... need a rear fender delete kit for my bike first. 😄
