great idea lets spend 30k for on race that will probably never happen again, we have a real street car we are in the process of building now but i dont know if it will be done in time thats why i haven't brought it up, it will fit into this even and should run a low 10 on a raidal, but thats still no comp for the other guys going low 9s and 8s

+1
i think if we can all manage to agree this could be a great event

could be good publicity for the site as well....idk looked at it from a marketing standpoint haha

Oh, Nagger keeps referring to how money is no object for you, so I thought it was just a drop in the bucket. Haha Do you have any other customer cars that could come to this race?

I wonder if we talked to the people at VMP and maybe set up a event similar to the way MIR does their I VS D? Maybe get it going and have some real publicity and slot of spectators?

I was at around 135-140... I didn't say ALL hondas were shitboxes... Just that one (and any others that have parts flying off of them)... When you have parts of a bumper and a side view mirror flying into your lane at those speeds, and have to abort a run and the car gets sketchy trying to avoid everything, you get pretty adamant about the condition about the car you raced.

The problem with that is it would be just like MIR and my real street car would only fit in a class full of race cars that run 8's. There are plenty of races like that. We want something like the Hot rod power tour, but on a one day cheap event.

yes we are building 2 cars right now that will make this even but even with all my magic there gona be 700 hp fwds on a radial which should go a low 10 high 9 which is good but not good enough for 8s and low 9s yall are bringing, i have already talked to them about going they are down but i just dont see the point
