2011 Street Car shoot-out

[Metcalf Racing]

Craig do you want to make it a no slick event? If so it would be nice to know so those of us who only run slick on our street cars can buy some other tires

Well the black mustang and the maroon mustang were both faster than the green one but he pulled off the upset victory. That's what its all about.

I agree, but last year the range was from high 9 second to low 12's.(maybe high 11's). Very little chance for a 11.90 car to beat a 9.70 car, unless someone breaks.

In in open comp format, it comes down to the tree and running the number consistently.

But that's not a quick 16

But that's not a quick 16

Sure it is...only the quick 16 qualify for the race.

[NO SHOT]

If you are referring to my post i know for a fact that there where peopl on slicks, like a black mustang that was in the finals. I also no the winner was on drag radials and had current tags and ins.

I also know the cars in the shoot out had to be drivin there on the street.That was the rules.They do have drag radial races.I had slicks and I made the drive.If I got pulled over would you have payed my ticket.I doubt it.So I think some thing as minor as tire preferance is just that PREFERANCE.

A street car is something you get in and drive down the street

agreed!

If I wanted to race by rulz and regulations I would go class race.

I thought this was sum OUTLAW shit baby!!!!!.RUN WHAT YA BRUNG!!!

Here are my idea of rulz
1.Make the cruise..( follow along because they get harder after this)
2.Stage the car....(are ya still with me cause heres where it gets tough)
3.When the light turns green then push down on gas pedal HARD!! and hold on
And if you get to the stripe first then guess what you win


And yep I will be there!!!!

[mustangrfast88]

im totally in

[juiced]

Just set the rules in stone and dont change them at all people can choose to race in the event or not cant wait was a good time last year

[Metcalf Racing]

Yeah, it would be nice to lock them in now, so if we need to adjust it will be easier to do

[Chris Lazzo]

Count me in this summer just flew bye.


All work and no play.

[Maximus]

I went with the "Whatever tire you want" because I knew some people only had Slicks. With the recession going on, I didnt want to have someone out because they couldnt afford new tires.
Besides, how cool is it for the winner to say, "I beat your car running DOTs against your slicks!"

Keep up the discussion.

[Mista Bone]

Cracker, why don't you have 3-4 events a year at local tracks?

I doubt getting people to come will EVER be an issue.

[fasthawk]

The title says street car shootout, anyone that has a real street car that drives more than 2 or 3 miles from the house has street tires weather it has a tube chassie or not. I was not calling out anyone car because there was more than the 2 front running cars. I have never owned a set of slicks. Some of the so called street cars i have never see at local cars shows cruise nights stangbangerz meets and so on. YES YOU CAN DRIVE ANYTHING ON THE STREET YOU WHAT IF YOU WHAT TO TAKE A CHANCE BUT IN MY OPINION THAT IS NOT A STREET CAR .

[fasthawk]

As far as other tracks i dont see n2o doing this like tristate did for no charge. I dont know to much about kil kare but do they even run a test n tune on weekends.
