Buck531 Posted August 6, 2004 Report Share Posted August 6, 2004 It sucks, that is all. I'm sure the others who were there tonight can test for that too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wease Posted August 7, 2004 Report Share Posted August 7, 2004 Yup. Last time I go there. I only went tonight just to see how the Mustang would do (14.6 @ 94 w/ a shitty 2.3 short time), but hell, I was there 4+ hours and only got 3 runs in. They seem to let everyone else run more than the street cars... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buck531 Posted August 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2004 Yep, Lets see, the big dogs ran,.. great, then the kiddies in *** mini rails, then the atv's, then the bikes. THEN, the same thing happened again.. while there were a HUGE 4 lines of cars (street) waiting to run..oh well. Last time I go there. Shit, the slips worked (this time), but ya figure with ALL the money they bring in for a Friday, thy'd fix the god damn boards.. the time was right, the trap was like +700..

iwishiwascool Posted August 7, 2004 Report Share Posted August 7, 2004 At least the traction was better tonight... I ran twice, the first run w/o nitrous i ran a 12.33 all seemed solid. The second run I lost a cylinder at the 1/8th, but kept pushing and managed a 11.99... at a very low 108.59. I learned that I lost fuel pressure during the run and melted 2 of my plugs. I left right after and went home to check the compression. Thank God for forged internals, I will be running tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I saw you there. But, there were too many DSM's to walk up to you and say "hey, are you IwishIwascool"? smile.gif . I think I saws your 11.99 run. Good stuff.

AC still works, although I haven't had much use for it the past week. I guess that's a good thing. And the tailpipe is all fixed and tightened up. Thanks again for the AC help... graemlins/thumb.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 1sweet3.4 Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 I haven't been out to MCIR this year, did they fix the wavy ass track or is it still just as shady as it's ever been? I think I have hooked better and gone straighter on a gravel road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kohones Posted September 25, 2004 Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 I was there last night! NO TRACTION PLUS I CAN'T DRIVE!!!! I like the folks that run it, unfortunately they were waaay to busy with the lil kids driving the lawn mower powered rails etc. I took two passes within 3 1/2 hours, sideways in 2nd both times. Bad times but enjoyed the guys I went up with --- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Pomade Posted September 25, 2004 Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 I went, my first time at the track. My first run was my best run - I put down 13.1 @ 102 mph. That was just on the motor, and that was with me letting out early because I didn't know where the finish line was. graemlins/nonono.gif (The finish line was marked by a singular, smallish orange cone - not the boards where they flash up the times/mph, which was like several hundred yards before that cone and was where I assumed the finish line was.) My sixty-foots owned me. I was consistently putting down whopping 2.3's and 2.4's. (Watchoutnow!) When I started spraying, my traps got respectable - I think I trapped a best of 118, and my other traps on spray were right around 115 and 116. Yet, my ETs kept getting worse - for instance, I think I had an ET of 13.4 on that 118 trap. Some of it probably was attributable to me getting heatsoaked - I hotlapped like four passes in a row one time. (Not sure how I managed that - I just kept going up to the shortest lane and the dude in the pink shirt just kept ushering me on out.) But, in the end, I think it was my launches that were the primary culprit. Oh well, you have to start somewhere... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(running on a dirt track). The traction there sucks. The track is a fucking hillbilly run place with tards for people who run the track. edit - I just re-read your post and yes, it was your first time there..

Lemmie guess, it'll be your last smile.gif .Actually, no, I'm giving MCIR another shot tonight at Andrew's event. I've heard a lot of people say the same things that you have about the track - e.g., it sucks, it's bumpy, it doesn't hook. So, I figure then that if I can get some respectable passes there, then things should only improve when I move on to other, better tracks. smile.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
