[jigga_x]

:banana: :banana: :banana:
First Friday in March...RACE DAY!!! Who's coming with me?!?

[Vypurr]

I will try to go! I want to run the SRT, but we'll see.

It's gonna be packed though, I would like more than 1 run... :cry:

[jin240sx]

i got a score to settle with atco. i blew up my engine back in june on that track while racing a mustang. :furious: but i'll take it to that track next time. so i'll definitely be there.

[jigga_x]

:eek: wat color was the mustang?!?

i was there one night and a mustang blew up on the track and we were stuck in the staging lanes for hours... :mrgreen:

[teh DIRT]

:eek: wat color was the mustang?!?

i was there one night and a mustang blew up on the track and we were stuck in the staging lanes for hours... :mrgreen:

were you there the nite about 20 subies were there? i remember an SRT being there....actually i have a video of it. That nite a stang blew up on the track too. And the same nite a old school lotus crapped out while staging

[jigga_x]

i dunno...there were three SRTs there the night i was there. my friend from philly (owns a meineke in south philly) and another guy from the srtforums. 3 Black SRTs so we all pretty much matched. u might have thought we were all the same car if u saw us at different times...LOL

[jin240sx]

i was racing against a mustang. i had a 240 that was gold in the back and black up from, a coupe. i was just there seeing what time it ran stock because i was in the early stages of getting a turbo kit together for it and wanted a solid comparison. after the engine blew, it didn't blow until the end of the track, i decided for the sr instead.
that same night a white 240 running in the quick 8's broke down at the grid. i guess it was a bad night for the ka24de engine.

[Orbit]

i was there that day too. the other srt4 was one of the guys from http://www.rx4speed.com. they just opened up a shop down the street from me.right by rallispec..now i get too see all types of cars going down my street everyday not just subies.

:supz: <-- this smile rocks !

[the mike]

Less than a month to go BUMP!!!

All you n00bies read this. :mrgreen:

[97TSi]

Hmm...I think I'd be down for this.
I'd like to see what I can muster out of the 7bolt and B16G before it gets pulled.

[SpendOne]

I think Im heading down before that. Im gonna start to try to get down there religiously. Maybe once every week or two.

[97TSi]

Me too. Me and my buddy are aiming for some pretty low fwd times so we'll probly be down there every week as well. I can't wait.

[Orbit]

Mike and I will be there to motivate those times :supz: damn its coming up faster then i was prepared for. need to get my sheet in gear!

[MuddyREX]

Count me in.

[the mike]

Maybe we should start TST Racing... :supz:

[jigga_x]

Souinds Good! :supz:

[Orbit]

always thinking!! good idea!


Maybe we should start TST Racing... :supz:

[BigTimeTalon]

I will see you guys there, I'm preparing the talon to go for march 1st, maybe we can make this an official meet and cruise there or do something afterwards.

[97TSi]

I'll aim to have my car able enough to make a few trips down the 1/4.

[SpendOne]

I think Im heading down this sunday as long as it doesnt rain. If you guys head down im in a primed black 90 eclipse. Stop by and say Hi. :mrgreen:

[the mike]

Bump for less than 2 weeks to go!!!
Who else is in?

[1.8Tizzle]

i'm so down..i'm gonna try ad get some people who arent in tristate tuners to join the site and come down with us

[the mike]

The more, the merrier. :partyman:

[TROLL]

so what day are you guys planning to all go together? i want to come watch, just trying to make sure what day you are aiming for.
bryan

[1.8Tizzle]

don;t you have to wear a helmet or some **** when your at atco?>

[the mike]

Yes, you will need a helmet, but they rent them.
We were originally talkong about the 1st for a meet...but who knows?

[jigga_x]

i'll be at E-town Feb 26th and at Atco March 4th...it's $3 at Atco to rent the helmets. I can't wait. I have to hurry up and get my control arms put on and get some new tires, cause these tires have done all they could.

Anybody know a place i can get a nice yet inexpensive set of tires?(225/45/17-ZR)

[the mike]

Look into the Bridgestone Potenza S-03. It is a serious tire for the summer. Sticks like heck in the rain and the dry. I could not get them loose on my WRX.(they are still in my garage, but they are 235/40/ZR17)

[Smokescreen]

Are there any other rules and regs track noobs like myself should know? I'm thinking about coming down. Directions?

The S-03s are nice. They are $171 or something for 17" 225/45/17/YR from the TireRack. Like Mike said, they stick like glue in the wet or dry. I'm looking to get some too. Too bad Subydude doesn't offer them with his Rota packages. I need to buy everything separate now... :cry:

[the mike]

Windows up, seatbelt on.
These are pretty much the only rules. That and no speeding on the return road or through the pits.

[97TSi]

I'd be a little weary of renting helmets. I'm not trying to be prejudice or biased or anything, but seeing the kind of clientel Atco can attract and how many heads those helmets have been on.... :jawdrop:

Better have the lice stuff ready at home.

[the mike]

I have 2 of my own. ;)

[jigga_x]

LMAO...yea, wheres a good place to buy a helmet?

I was gonna say this, but I wanted someone else to say it first. Its not about being prejudice, biased, or the clientel. I would hang with anyone as long they aren't retard ricers. Its about you or me putting their head inside a lid that someone else had on and got their sweat and man juice on. Not counting the people in line before him. Put my head in one of those lice traps? Naw, I'm cool. I'll just watch this time.

[MuddyREX]

I'd be a little ticked if I found "man juice" in my helmet.

[Orbit]

You have to give them your driver license to rent a helmet . i have seen them left on the table unattanded. if your not comfortable with that. bring a helmet.. so what day are we going now?

[Silver04STi]

i was there that day too. the other srt4 was one of the guys from http://www.rx4speed.com. they just opened up a shop down the street from me.right by rallispec..now i get too see all types of cars going down my street everyday not just subies.

I am also right down the road from RX4speed also. Where you at? Looking to get to know the local crowd. Been out of the car scene since 2001 when I sold my supercharged 99gt. Sorry about hijacking the thread

[Orbit]

We should set up a date . im really getting the itch! would be good to get on the track while it is still cold. Has anyone gone yet?

[the mike]

I need to get off of my winter tires first. Great for traction in the snow, not so much for the 4500 RPM launches.

[Orbit]

Well, i was considering going there today to play. but on the schedule it says NO Time OK .. does that mean what it says. no time but whats with the OK ..lol .. kinda pointless if i cant get my time.

[TehWagon]

Concur. Ditto for me. Gotta go down and get a baseline before I start modding. WHEN?

[ixlr811s]

people that don't don't want their times displayed is ok to race, i think. go race and let us know how you did!

[Orbit]

does anyone want to go tomorrow??

[TehWagon]

What time did you have in mind? Mike doesn't want to race but I might. We have to be back relatively early though.

[Orbit]

well they dont start racing till the track is at least 32 degrees .. today they said it was around 11;00 am

[TehWagon]

Probably cutting it too close for us. Maybe a Tuesday night soon when it's warm enough...

[Orbit]

ok, just let me know and i will go.


Probably cutting it too close for us. Maybe a Tuesday night soon when it's warm enough...

so no one wants to go tomorrow?

[Silver04STi]

I tried to go last night and it was closed. I got the the itch too. Its be awhile since I've been down the lanes. I'll go whenever, just gotta be sure the track is open.

[Orbit]

what time did you go? they update the phone message daily to tell you what is going on. i guess if no one shows up after awhile they shut it down early. it would be nice to go while there is not too many cars there. should be able to get as many runs as ya want.

[Silver04STi]

I got there about 7:00. I tried to call but the phone message said that they don't upate it at this time of the year. I figured I give it a shot and roll out there anyway with the hopes that it would be open like according to the schedule.

Alright people when we doin this- I gotta get a baseline but I'm itchin to get my uppipe... Should we try for a weekend day so it's more likely to be warmer? Maybe this Sunday??

[97TSi]

I might be up for this sunday.
I need to get my logger back from Jess. I was planning on trying to get to Atco to pick up some race gas anyway, mine as well run if I can get down there :mrgreen:

[bjc26]

With snow on Friday into Saturday I don't think mother nature is going to be too co-operative... :(

[criz]

mmmm.... atco

[TehWagon]

Guess we'll have to play it by ear. Whether it's snow drifting or drag racing, at least we'll have fun either way!

::crosses fingers to at LEAST have some accumulation this time!!::

[bad360rt]

I'm about 15 mins from Atco. As soon as I get the truck back on the road (couple weeks probably) I'll be there almost every week, usually on Thursdays.

[the mike]

Damn, not Thursdays. :cry:

[TehWagon]

ayite, yall... the appointment has been made for precision to put in my uppipe on the 19th. if we could go to atco before then that'd be cool. if not, i ain't waitin for you foos. i need more hp!

[criz]

uh... mike too lazy to install that for you!?

I was thinking of asking Precision to install the fuel pump and injectors... they're really good right?

[TehWagon]

He said it's just a PITA job and it'd be easier for them to do it- plus they'll do the CEL fix. Yes everything I've read about them so far, esp on clubwrx.net just sings their praises about how they are the experts on wrx's. If you do a search on there you'll come up with so much stuff. I'll let you know how I make out though-

[Orbit]

just say the word.

[TehWagon]

On the nasioc thread people are sounding wishy washy- I'd need some serious convincing tonight- I'm pretty ill... maybe sunday?

[Orbit]

[TehWagon]
