[Ruckus46gt]

nice thanks think the other one is my 12.58 run. Feels good to be back in the mid 12s, but kind of scary though going through my goals to fast and not changing anything lol

[AZSonicSnake]

yeah, the other one is the 12.58 run. and its a better video. today was my first day using the new camera at the track, so, needless to say, i have some work to do. so far as the other video goes, i need to edit about a minute and a half out of it, and i will get it up.

cool. what kind of camera was it?

[AZSonicSnake]

its a sony dcr-sr42. takes some kick ass video. its the same one used to film my 11.1 video that i loaded. i used my canon s5is to shoot the video i already posted here. not too bad really considering its a camera that takes video. :woot1:

thanks guys thought both cars looked familiar but wasnt sure. 93 what broke on the car that they pushed you off the track? these nitto's are just about done swapping to et streets. Was going to buy greg welds new rims coming out but they got pushed back due to the fact weld racing is sueing greg welds new company.... and the fact i just bought some spray doesnt help

[4Jenna]

Was nice meeting you guys also!

not sure what sp? is, but plan on hitting it with a 150 shot on et streets. Went with harris speed workds plate set up. They were basically giving the kit away in there xmas special. Got the complete kit for 370 and a lot of people swear by there quality. The noids are a little smaller but basically bored (small noids big orifaces good to a 200 shot). here is a video on how there plate kit sprays

[Ruckus46gt]

WHO kicked you out? Was your money refunded? What was the reasoning for you getting "kicked out"?

[93mustank]

WHO kicked you out? Was your money refunded? What was the reasoning for you getting "kicked out"?

There lies the problems I am having....I first got the track at around 11:00 am ....Got through tech at 11:30..... Started switching my tires out which i am used to doing.....

Tech guy comes up and notices i did not have open ended lug nuts in the front(after market weld draglites)....Says I will not be allowed to run because of this...(looked in the nhra rule book and found nothing on this) .....I asked if i could receive a refund and he told me I would not..... He said passing tech or failing was my problem.....

I have been to the track about ten times in 2007 and have had no problems until now ....I wish they would have told me before...

After talking to the guy for 30 min he finally is nice enough to allow me to run.....

Then starts asking if i have after market axles ..... (i have stock) ....he says i will need to upgrade according to nhra rules.....my car runs 12.5's and I have never heard of having to upgrade axles....

I finally get to run one run and go 12.5 at 104 mph..... After the run they say i can not run anymore because the traction lock is out and the car launches too much sideways.......I watched the video and the car looks fine... it just has some twist do to the battery relocation and no subframe connectors.....

I just wish I knew all the rules and regulations before I get to the track....It would help if those rules and regulations would not change....

I am all for fallowing the rules....So if you could help me out I would love to get the car up to date so I can come out and run more than a single run....

I frequent the track often....twice a month...

[Ruckus46gt]

open ended studs arent required its just the amount of stud it catches. Then can make you pull a stud and check how much of the lug is catching and if its not the required length you can be disqualified. Never heard anything about needing aftermarket axles. 11.50s is where the bid stuff comes in transmission shields/bell housings(sfi approved), cages, drive shaft loop ( unless you are running slicks then it comes in higher), 5 pt harness, sfi aproved clutch, fire jacket, etc

[BurnTire]

1. You do not need open end lug nuts. The lugs must engage the threads at a length equal to the diameter of the stud. On a mustang that is 1/2". Open end is not a rule, but allows the tech guy to visually verify easier. Closed end would require the removal of the lugs to visually verify if the tech guy is concerned.

2. After market axles and a retention device are required on a car running 10.99 or quicker or on any car with a locking differential. Your stock axles are fine

3. If you run slicks or run 11.49 or quicker on radials you need a drive shaft loop.

I suggest you get a rule book and take it to the track with you.

[93mustank]

The tech guy gave me a rule book.......I will bring it and highlight it

[4Jenna]

Free rule book score...bet is was a 2007 edition..lol

[4Jenna]

Jeff is right on all those rules, someone told you wrong.

And as for you only getting one run, you know as well as I do you fixed your car right at the end of the raceday. Even if they wouldnt have said anything about your launch we were done racing.
You made the last run of the day I though

Damn is it a really long Mullet?

[Ruckus46gt]

[chewbaccajones]

I rocked a mullet back in '89 and '90 and I'm not ashamed. Ok, maybe a little. But I lived in the south where it was acceptable to have a mullet and Oakley razor's.

[wickedcobra]
