View Full Version : Heading to Firebird 10/26
:highfive: THANKS to TorchedMach1:highfive:, I now have an almost brand new set of ET Streets:laughing1: to try out. Which is a good thing since I'm going to turn the bottle on, and I don't think the Nittos would hold off the line on the bottle. So we are heading to Firebird to make some runs.
Anyone else heading out there?

what a kick ass night. big time congrats to jay on his new record breaking time!! wtg man. oh, and i have a totally new respect for firebird. my car hooked all three times i ran. and the prep was awesome. the only suck part was all the oil that people kept putting down, but thats not firebirds fault.
btw- jay, shane and i all had new bests. videos will be up by the end of the weekend of all three new bests.
oh, my time was 11.77@120 with a 1.68 60'
i saw your 11.77 run tony, that thing dead hooked, it looked awesome.
so did u see the 6 second cars go? lol or how bout that old muscle car that ate it?
edit: and im glad u gave firebird another try. maybe ppl will stop callin it fireturd, or fireslick lol.

Thx man it was a blast. Also congrats on your times as well. I also give a big thumbs up to Firebird. Even with all the oil spilt on the track my tires never thought about breaking loose.
I ran an 11.591 @ 115.36 with a 1.52 60' :woot1:
Can't wait to see the videos.

fazm- it definetly felt kick ass. i let it go from 6k on that 11.77 pass. with a little faster shifting i think i can take a tenth or two off that time. i was just happy to get going faster on the first night out with the new goods. did you see my second pass where i totally blew third? yea, that was awesome on my part lol. but most definetly will be back out to firebird, i was very happy with the track. i was not stoked about waiting an hour to get through tech, but its all good. the track prep and condition of the surface made it all worth the waits. definetly much more respect will be givin to firebird from me.
jay- will have vids up likely tomorrow. i personally will make sure of it. i would have them up now but my camera guy left the cable at home. but i told him we must have it asap. :twothumbsup:

you and me both!! :woot1:
:woot1:CONGRATS to all, last night was a blast. The track was like glue even after a few cars blew oil on the track it still hooked like mad! I can't wait to see the vids and pics. THANKS TO THE CAMERA CREW you gals/guys rock!:twothumbsup:
Now I can't wait to hit the track again with the window switch dropped a little lower and a lot more bottle pressure. It should make for a very interesting pass since I only had @ 800psi on the bottle and it wasn't hitting till just after the 60' mark when I ran the 12.3's. 11's here I come!!!!:laughing1:
ull get there im sure man. i really need to get my car workin again so im not blown out of the water lol. in the past few weeks i went from #16 on the list, to the 2nd page haha
