    Spec Drags

    Ok, Elko has listed the new class "Outlaw" next year. Anyone building a car for this?

    I have a feeling Elko is going to put the gold firebird in outlaw class even though its a street car, but thats cool, that allows for the use of track tires.

    Suspension problem has been located, "steering gear wore out" Im changing it over to manual steering and getting rid of the power steering pump, Watch out Sneller, I got your timing!

      I am uploading your guys race for charity from last year today. You had him beat hands down.

      It should be an interesting season next year. I'm just hoping they dont rope me into the "outlaw" class next year.

              I spent $100 dollars on buckets of beer that eve... and sadly I remember that race. Surprised you can't hear me yelling in this video, I was right down at the end it was shot.

                    Funny, I was wondering the same thing. Elko was already anouncing mine as a "Outlaw Car", pissed me off! I should of gotten credit for running a street car against a race car. Still I dont think Elko is on to how fast your car is quiet yet. Maybe hold back alittle when running against the slower cars. Also I think Outlaws is going to attract full race cars like Sneller's. As for myself, I hav'nt been offically told yet but I'm asuming after the Sneller race I'm in Outlaws, Would be nice to know. Right now I dont know if I should leave my suspension stock or start buying some parts.

                    But if they do put you in outlaws I would like to see you run against Sneller, I got $100 bill says you beat him!

                        Are you thinking of the "moonshine" that rolled a 71 duster at raceway park?

                        The guy that had 7 spectator wins between 87 and 91, back when everyone had 400 horse v8's?

                        The guy that built figure 8 motors for Jim Cheever, Dick Molen, and Rick Meyer?

                        Sorry, never heard of the guy

                          After watching that video post and the 2nd video in his folder i can honestly say 1Quick4 is a true racer. No other person in those vids no how to drive. It pisses me off when people cant stay in there line. I raced a red mustang there in Aug? I think against a blue cordoba and going into to turn one he cuts me off and then drives 30mph through the corner. I should have gone high, but not racing there for 3 years and in someone elses car, i stayed back and followed him like a dumbass. I followed so close i couldnt see his ugly tail lights. He had more motor down the backstraight i fell back and caught him in four again but didnt have enough to go by down the straight. I am hoping to get the chance again this year to run the best, and i wont be so nice this time!

                            Sorry about that, that was my kid. That is also him driving the gold firebird against 1Quick4 in the elko video. He hasn't had much practice and he was very nervous last year. Maybe part my fault too since I told him to take it easy out there and not to go to fast if he doesn't have to. But this year he will be turning 16 and getting his drivers licence so he will have more practice driving by the time elko starts again.

                              Sellners kid is talking major trash on YouTube

                              I'm thinking of bringing my buddies cement filled 3/4 ton Chevy Demo Derby truck out for outlaws to run against Sellner's Camaro. Rubbin's racin' right?


                              Mike, I give you and your boy props for running clean races. Any old hack can play bumper cars, it takes a real driver to race clean
