Going to the dragstrip thanksgiving weekend (US41 in Indiana) who wants to go???

[03CobraRed]

For you Michigan guys what City are you coming from? Also I have a summer house in New Buffalo Michigan I an go to the track a lot from there and the fastest way to get there is 94 to 41 AKA Indianapolis BLVD. and take it all the way down. Its about an hour and 50 minutes to get there from New Buffalo. I will be meeting everybody there.

Eric I tried calling you today and I left a message. My friend might be backing out on me with the truck and trailer. I am not sure when I will know for sure? Either way I am still going and I will be there with a few Mustangs from our group.

I hope the trailer comes because my halfshafts are on backorder and I will be launching at 4K on et streets all day. Ill call you tomorrow Ray

I'm not 100% sure, if I will be able to make it or not. My chip has a bad program burned for the race program. I may drive out though just to watch. :bash:

Whoever gets there first pick a good spot and the rest of us can look for the '03s. Spread out to try to save some parking spaces.

 

[03CobraRed]

I will try to get there early and get a nice spot. This is gonna be fun. I just talked with my friend and he said even if he doesn't go I can use his trailer and pull it with my moms Navigator if it is fixed in time. Im just praying I don't break anything. If I break another halfshaft or break a diff cover I am getting a solid axle ASAP.

I don't think we are probably going to have to fight too hard for parking spaces.

LOL

Cliff, if you want to use my 315 Nittos or the ET Streets, let me know.
I can see a mid 12's then.

Dan,

Thanks for the tire offer. I am going to try to get a twelve on street tires. I'm hoping the temp. cooperates and I can stay away from wheel hop. I'm terrified that I will break something. I will think about it, but will probably go with my street tires.

Sorry Cliff, wheel hop will be a lot worse with the cooler temps, especially on stock tires.
If you insist, drop the air pressure way down and heat them up real good.
I actually think you have less chance of breaking something with tires that actually hook than with street tires.

we will be departing from Charlestown mall in St. Charles at 7:00 AM. I will be there around 6:30. Meet off the entrance off of route 64 (main street) and I will be on the southwest side of the mall at JCPenney's. You will see a torch red Cobra converitble. Im sure you can spot it since not many people will be there at 630 am.

alright, charlestown mall at 700 am sunday morning. The JC penny is now VAN MAUR so you will see my cobra in that parking lot. Like I said there wont be too many red cobras in the mall parking lot at 630 am. We will leave at 7:05-7:10 so be there....

who ever is meeting there please post on here that you are in for sure so we don't leave anyone. Also say what car and the color. Thanks guys. If any of you have a change of plans, call my cell anytime 630-768-0761. The weather looks good now as the rain is no longer there. Looks high 40's to low 50's. I hope it holds up. Again, people that are meeting at the mall, please confirm. Thanks

We can follow eachother out from the dragstrip home then part. We will see eachothers cars enough as it is!!!! Lets just hope the weather is good, get there and get busy clicking off 11sec passes!!!

i want my 11's also but it will have to wait till next season as the cobra is starting to hibernate.let us all know who ran what if the weather holds out:burnout:

 

[fractaldragon]

I will be there....trying to get a few more Lightnings to show up too :-D

 

[Tranzlucent]

I'm pretty sure you can count me in. This will be my first time at a drag strip so no laughing.

 

[Abad46]

I'll be going. If anyone there wants to buy a t-45 out of a 97 cobra let me know! I can bring it with me!
