Guys as you know there has been some trouble with the airport event. Don't really want to get into details but I will say they have not been easy to deal with to say the least. I have decided since we already have a group of people who are into the event on the 30th I would like to do something that will be enjoyable for all of us. I have decided to switch the venue from the Airport to English town Raceway!! We have the track from 8:30 am until 4:30 pm to rip up as much as we want. You can arrive and drive at anytime during the day. Nothing else is changing and I apologize for the switch but it was unavoidable for me. So now we have time slips and a prepped racetrack for the day!! It's going to be the 1st L4P track event in the North East. It's all getting filmed for DVD and the models will be there as well. It's going to be a crazy time. For those who are already registered you don't need to do anything but if you are interested in registering shoot me a pm and I'll set you up. I'm stoked for this, can't wait for the 30th to get here. Any questions guys feel free to post up.

nice!! every time where at practice which is right next to the strip we hear the cars and bikes rippin down that thing and i go damn i wish i had my car here. well i guess this is my chance.

i'm gonna see if i can find a car trailer to rent or borrow so i can tow my car and practice for a little while like usual on the MX track then come and do some runs with my car

how much is it to enter the event?? also do you know if motocross helmets are aloud as long as there DOT and SNELL approved?? if so i will have a couple extra then for some of the guys that don't have helmets

i have never done a 1/4 mile run so it would be cool to try it out

thanks and lmk

Greg, no issues with verts on the track, correct?

Also, anyone want to help me bleed my brakes there?

Finally, I've got a helmet and can share it but I would recommend to everyone on here to go out and buy a good new or very lightly used one - it'll be another incentive to stop thinking about going to the track and actually doing it (not like I am one to really talk)

if the car is stock there is a loop hole that it can run as fast as it can go and never have to worry. now if the car is not stock then i believe you need the required roll bar when running faster then 12.99 seconds.

Glad to see you here mah-boy!

Hey Greg, do I get commission for referring two new members and getting them to join the englishtown meet? LOL... just kidding.

By the way, Danny S has a 2009 Carrera 2S and Frank has a Mustang GT

Had to create a login to this forum so I could say Hi and Thanks for letting me in on the fun! I found out about this rental from jerseydrew, over on the Corvette Forums and was psyched to sign up. The day after this rental (10/31) is the Corvette Challenge, including the Pro 10 Double Index that I race in. My car has been running a bit too quick for the index and I am hoping to use this time to dial her in better and prepare for the following day.

I will probably call the track tomorrow to see if they allow cars to run on a .500 pro tree if requested at a rental as well as if they sell race fuel during track rentals. But, it looks like you guys already have food all figured out, so I won't ask if they're selling that ;)

If you are interested in the types of rules they tend to enforce at Raceway Park (although I am not sure if they are a bit more mellow at a rental), you can look at the NHRA ET Quick requirements at: NHRA E.T. Quick Reference Chart

You can get more info on their helmet rules at: Drag racing safety & helmet rules for all drag racing classes at Englishtown NJ Raceway Park.

I am far from an expert, but the links above may help a bit with some of the questions I saw posted in this thread.

I look forward to meeting you all on the 30th.

Thanks,
Dave

i'll tell you guys now, there are some FAST cars showing up and let me just say to those that have seen my car move, mine is not fast compared to these guys.... i can't wait! and it looks like the forecast is getting better by the day, temp looks fantastic and the chance of precip is going down every time i look at it.

ok guys i have some of the racers express some concerns so i called e-town and talked to them about fuel. race fuel WILL be available from 9:30am-10am ONLY so if you need it those are the times to get it!

also the time slip printer is by request only (so Greg make sure to ask for it when you get there on friday morning) and we will need a volunteer to write the car numbers on them as they come out. it is pretty simple, car comes to the line and you see what number the car is, it runs, ticket prints and you write car number on ticket so later they can come claim the ticket and see their results. anyone have a wife/gf or buddy coming along willing to do this?

how the hell did so many people drop out? i thought we were at 38 people this morning.
 
#80 ·
If some of you guys plan on doing a nice burnout to heat up your tires then I would go to the store and buy the Blue Painters tape for your lower rear quarter panel. ( Greg i will pick up the white shoe polish so that everyone can mark there windows with there numbers."1-40")

exactly I trimmed the list to let in more people, the guys who I didn't get a payment from yet I took off. We only had 1 car drop out so far. Now we have some more room but I just got another register so there goes another slot.
