I am starting a new program at GLD which for now is called "slicks only" night.

Date: Thursday June 30th

Time:
Gates open at 3

Racing starts *AT* 4

Racing ends at 11....possibly 12 if there's a lot of cars/people there.

Cost:

Racing = $40 (yes, it's more than normal but, I'm gonna spray the **** out of the track with VHT...make sure you're ready for it)

Specating = $12

This *IS* a test and tune event...however, I may allow some street racing to take place...*IF* it's a REAL race.

I will also be giving away FREE RACING PASSES all night long to those people who do impressive things down the 1/4 mi. (like longest burnout,fastest ET,highest wheelie, longest wheelie...ect.)

Whats allowed:

ANY car with slicks
ALL bikes (they can have a street tire because they dont make bald spots on the starting line)

Tires allowed: M/T Drags,M/T ET street,M/T Drag radial,Goodyear slicks,hoosier slicks,firestone slicks and BIG BFG DRAG RADIALS

Tires NOT allowed: Nitto's (yes, they make bald spots), radial street tires of any make or model.



Let me make this clear.... *I* am renting the track for this...*I* have final say over what goes on and what doesnt. If you are running a tire that tears up the starting line then, *I* will tell you to change them or stop racing.


I *WILL* have clocks off lanes open along with CLOCKS ON lanes too.

"Clocks off" will NOT be an extra charge...you just need to be CLEARLY marked that you dont want your times shown.


I *MIGHT* run a quick 16 race during the night too. I will let you know about it closer to the date.




any questions?


Who's goin'?

This is a night for the "BIG DOGS" to get their stuff dialed in....I am going to prep the track like it's NHRA Nationals!!!

Street tire turds can race all the other dates

How can a drag radial be allowed at a "Slicks ONLY" night? Regardless of any marks it leaves.

I think your question can be answered by the fact that "Tuff" is renting the track for the night. He know what he want to set up and by renting the track can do whatever he wants. :thumbsup

Will a FWD Grand Prix with Hoosier QTP's on the front and radial's in the rear be allowed?

Hmmmm...thats a tough one....I tell you what, I'll let it slide and see what it does to the starting line.*IF* it causes a problem I may ask you to change them or stop running...IF you have to stop running for the day, I will get you a comp ticket for another day's T&T.

If it DOESNT cause a problem on the line....then all is good with me. Is that fair?

If I can make it, I'll have QTP's or M/T ET Drags on the front, with radials on the rear like what Fred will be running.... If somehow it messes things up for the 'Big Dogs', Im fine with getting a free ticket and just watching... ;)

Great event.... Im looking forward to going! :thumbsup

Ok so are the Hoosiers the issue or the radials on the rear. I was planning on running my BFG drags on front with radials on rear... can you clarify?

i would almost guarantee its the radials, with VHT, you'll get flat spots with radials
