    MNMayhem - Revisited

    It's now under a month away to Minnesota Mayhem and we have over 20 DSM's signed up and ready to race.

    And not one single Mustang from TCStangs.

    For some reason the DSM guys were not worried about breaking a month before the race. Yet the Mustangs complain of such problems? After trash talking import dependability? And these are not 14 second DSMs, the majority are DEEP into the 12's. Some have even provided timeslips and photos to prove as much.

    Who's really THAT worried about breaking shit? Seriously... If some toy of a car can not worry about it then why are the owners of the Mighty Pony car worried?

    PS: Excuse me, excuse me, the "Might Pony" car was the Pinto... the Mustang is, however, a very close second.

    Keep in mind that there are quite a few guy's that aren't track legal. Convertables without roll cages and such. I think that is one of the reasons many of them have not signed up. I do plan to register after tomarrow though. Only a week left to register, correct?

          And some are not interested because of the way the orignal organization was requiring Faster that xx.x cars.

          You can't snub over half the club and expect them to merrily join an event "now" that they are good enough.

          Yes, I can hold a grudge.

            And what's really the point of going for me? I know I'm not the fastest car, if I want a grudge race against someone I'll just do it some night, thus saving myself $55. Lastly I don't feel like driving 3 1/2 hours to a racetrack.

              I agree to a point, but what approach would have worked better? I know that approach worked really well on other boards.

              No one "snubbed" anyone bro. Event rules changed for the better, why would you be upset about that?

              I dunno, I think it would be really cool to have a big group of stangs there. I'm going and I know there are a decent amount of fbodies, older muscle cars, dsms, and other imports signed up. Lets get some stang representation

                        You summed it up pretty well Ducky. I don't want to hear one TCS member talking shit about an import again. You guys are backing down from something that was started on your board. I would be as ashamed of my board as Ducky is about this one. Thank God the DSM owners have some balls.

                          I think half the shit talkers on here are just scared of going to Mayhem because its actually real racing. From a stop with a Tree. Not this go from a roll bullshit. All that is good for is people who either can't drive or have two wheel drive and are scared that they are going to get ripped out of the hole.

                          Shit get some slicks and go out and break some shit guys.

                          CRAIG

                          Oh yeah and whoever said you can go out on the street and do the same thing, you are right. However Mayhem isn't a fight, its suppose to be a fun get together that legal and a chance to meet some people and win some cool stuff. Even if you don't have the fastest car, there will be tons of prizes for everybody.

                              The way I see it , the point of the 13.0 cut off was to avoid seeing a bunch of slow, loud and annoying Honda’s. Mustangs at least sound good even if they aren’t particularly fast. I wasn't under cut off till they changed it to 15.0, I didn't take it as "Your not good enough".
                              SLOW.
