Island Dragway Meet 3-30-08:

Ok guys myself (Ken) and gpse3400 (Lorenzo aka Dr. V6) are going to a TNT session at Island Dragway in Great Meadows, NJ Sunday March 30, 2008.  Racing starts at 10am and goes until 4 pm.  Racing is $35 spectators are $10 bucks.  Helmets are required but can be rented at the track.  Anyone who is in the Long Island area or upstate NY (Binghamton in particular) that would like to cruise to the track and race contact one of us.  I'm in Binghamton and Larry is down on Long Island, PM us if you are interested and we will find a place to meet up.  Anyone is welcome to come and have a good time and talk about the pushrod or dohc.   I'll be running my recently turbo'd 88gpse to see what it runs.....Larry might be running his 06 monte SS or his 92 5spd SE dohc car.  Either way it should be a blast with lots of tire smoke and good times as always.

I will be posting this on 60 degreev6 as well so we might have a few other type of cars there as well.  Here is the website.

I have not posted on W body but if you want to post it go ahead.  I find most people on W-body are interested in lowering springs and car stereos....not much for actual drag racing....just stop light stuff.  But like I said if some want to run with the big boys they are all welcome....I'll try to play nice  :icon_razz:

Got my drag radials but the turbo shit the bed.  I think it was unbalanced.  So this trip to the strip is going to be postponed until I get the rebuilt on done.......maybe a T3 hybrid now :).....check back for a new date.....

Yeah sorry, way to much radial play.  Luckily Flybynite is a great guy and is going to take care of it for me.....might even upgrade the compressor depending on what is wrong with it.  I'll keep this updated when I get the car back on the road.
