First of all Ken, thanks for the help from you, Carlos, and all the other f/s guys out at BG. Despite our problems with the 60 ft's, we all had a blast and should be able throw down some good numbers come next year. As for the E-town event, it seems a little vague on the rules. We want to run in NMRA trim but according to the rules, a 275/60R15 is 28 inches tall and therefore illegal. If we were to run, we can only use 235/60R15 or 275/50R15's? Also when they say 27x10 DOT, do they mean actual tire size or width? We have a set of 26x10.5 ET Streets which have an actual tread width of 8.3 that we could use.Hopefully we dont have to use VPC10. Ive got 10 gallons of C12 I would like to burn up.

[KenCook]

Good meeting you guys.
The 60' will come down. Its not easy with the radial.

The F/S tires are fine to use for this event. Don't worry about that.
Also the weight is 3100 for your setup and mine.
It looks like sunday we do both quals and elims.
Start time is 11am

Hope to see you guys there.

Hope to see you guys there.

Hopefully we'll get there sat. morning and camp out for sunday. This mainly depends if I get ass moving and get my turbo car back together so I can run Real Street. Anybody know what kind of times we should expect to see in F/S or Real Street?

[Chalie Sr.]

Ken,
It is not looking good! the new car is still waiting on some parts! I will be there to watch if it isn;t done!

11.60's last year in Factory . RS ?

[KenCook]

Anyone know if Denny is showing up?
Better yet, what happened with him not showing up at BG?

[CarlosSobrino]

Chalie, if you need any help let me know. Would love to get you out there racing.
As far as last years 11.6, that was the JPC F/S coupe driven by good ole Mike Washington. I asked Jonathan Paulk if the JPC team was coming to e-town and he said no that they had prior commitment. There is no "spec-fuel" rule for e-town, so your C-12 is legal. Hope to see you guys there.
DENNY !!!!!! WHAT'S UP?? Hope everything is ok.

Cobra 4V minimum weight 3300 lbs.

We forgot to give the 4V a little weight break like the rest...I will communicate this with Alex at Etown the day of the race.

Thanks again, Andy

[KenCook]

oh jeez. I guess a 11.36 aint enough :D

F... you Kenny....lol. Just for that, no G-Force for you, good ole TKO2. Dont feel bad, my slicks are 10" wide, so DRs for me.

[Ranger50]

Use the "yardstick" to measure precisely like tech...I bet they can measure 8.5" then..... ;)

Haha. I hope the scale is a little more consistant at E-Town then BG. If its not, I better keep an extra 100 lbs or so on me depending which side of the scale I get on :rolleyes:

[motoclown]

Can't make it.
To far away.

Good to hear all is ok. Cya there.

[BlueLX]

The rules say 27x10 DOT tire. Is that measured, or designated?

I have a questions about the rules...

I have a box upper that is cast aluminum for a Cobra lower. Is that considered a "street intake"?
