PICTURES POSTED - Hay Hauler Shootouts at Denton Dragway---Feb 1st

[Denton Dragway]

That's a Saturday Night, so get those P/Ups ready to go.

We will run two classes, both of which need at least 8 trucks entered into them in order to run the class.

STREET TRUCK SHOOTOUT

*Must be tagged, inspected, insured (current)
*No tubbed trucks allowed
*Street tires only (no ET drags, slicks, ET streets, or Nittos)
*Must be driven into track
*Must have full interior (seats, dash, etc.)
*ONE stage of nitrous allowed
*No after-market turbos or superchargers
*Must have all exhaust installed meeting TxDOT regulatuions

PRO STREET TRUCK SHOOTOUT

*Must be tagged, inspected, and insured (current)
*Slick are permitted
*Must be driven into track
*No open headers



Both classes will be run heads-up on a full tree, and will begin promptly at 9:00pm. Gates open at 6, so get there early and practice. Admission will be $10 and a tech card will be $5. Awards will be given to the Winner and R/Up in each class.

Love to see you guys there.

BTW, spread the word to your buddies, and on other boards about the race. Remember, in order to run both classes, there will need to be a minimum of 16 trucks on the property and ready to play.

Sounds good to me. Lets :burnout:

I do have one question. If the rules are not set in stone. Could we do something about rule #7. "*No after-market turbos or superchargers"? This may remove a few trucks from the Street Truck class. Plus, it wouldn't matter if they had twin turbos, the biggest blower you could buy and a 6 stage NOS set-up. If they can't get it off the line on street tires, YOU LOSE:D
But it is just a question, either way I'm in it 2 win it.

"Hay Hauler Shootout" You gotta love it.:D

[L8 APEX]

Look at that warm southerly wind:(

[ken cryder]

they said aftermarket not factory . so if you do have nitrous you can run in both events and just not use the nitrous in the first one .

[George G.]

I don't think I could even use the NOS until 3rd gear on street tires. By then I'll be at the traps.:D
One power adder, two power adders it's ALL GRAVY. ;)


Sixxer,
What kind of ET's do you run in the 1/8 mile on street tires?
Are you saying that you would like a piece of the Gen2kilr w/ one power adder and on street tires? If so lets LINE EM UP!!:eek2:

I think that would be a nice , tight race. If you drive better than your son.:D

I do and I think you're right. :cool:

[Ivanhoe_Farms]

I am just disappointed that I can only use one power adder, no chip, no 90mm MAF, No throttle body, No CAI, what a bummer:hammer:

[Denton Dragway]

Hey guys, if you would rather open it up to aftermarket super/turbochargers, I really don't care. You guys can help me make the rules.

I don't see where tit says only one power adder though? Am I missing something? :D

[T Hogg]

I would like to open it up to the aftermarket s/c & turbo guys. That way we would have more trucks in the street class. Also have you talked with any other truck clubs about this event? If so what kind of feed back are you getting.

As for the one power adder comment, that is just an inside (Talon) thing.

I think we should get some kind of count started, so we will know how many trucks from Talon are going and in which class are you going to run in.

[Sixpipes]

I'm in. Street tires only. :cool:

[ken cryder]

i'm in both

[Winterhawk]

:tu: :nana2

[Badcarma]

Street tires...I'm in...will be alot of :burnout:

[Mark #2]

Oh sure, I buy DOT slicks and now you guys want to have street tire races:)

[T Hogg]

Now, I know we have more trucks than this. Wheres all the NOS powered Gen 2's.

At our last event I remember alot of smack talking. This event would be a good time to back some of that lip up.:D Please don't make me call any names.:eek2:

It would be great to have aleast 10-12 trucks show.

[wesman]

Send the head swapping crew over to my house and I'll be there :)

[tliss]

I'm most likely in. So far don't have any honey-dos that weekend.

Tom

[Sixpipes]

February 1st at 9PM. Show up early for test & tune. This is a low-maintenance race; no tire changes necessary, just show up and run. It will be worth 15 bucks just to get a shot at Terry on street tires.
:nana2
I'm counting 6-8 from our club so far. We should be able to do better than that............................

[Justin 95L]

I may show up if they will allow a aftermarket supercharger in the street class

[98Cobra]

If I have new tires by then, I'll be there.

[ken cryder]

they will open at 12;30 start at 1;00 and close at 8;00 starting feb 1st .


they just posted this . so it looks like we will be racing in the afternoon .

Need a little clarification on the times. I assume if the gates open at 12:30 the test and tune will start at 1:00. What time does the competition start? Saturday afternoon might be even better for us old guys. Should be able to get some good video coverage too. :cool:

[ken cryder]

Starting Jan 31 our hours will be

Fri
6:30 gates open
7:00 Clocks open to go down the track
about 9:30ish 'Midnight madness'
Close no latter than 12:30, but weather/track condictions can cause much earlier closing showing after 10:30 is a risky move

Sat
1:30 gates open
2:00 Clocks open
8:00 Close

Justin,

They will be allowing aftermarket S/C and turbo trucks in the street class. Hope you can make it. It would be nice to see some more Gen 1s in the line up. Even nicer would be, to see all Gen 1s in the winners circle.:D

Whats up with Michael? Tell him I would love to see his monster go down the track on that BIG shot w/ street tires.:eek2:

[Justin 95L]

He is planning on coming he Pm'd me this morning to see if I am going I wll be there if my trans is up to it I don't think it like the new motor taht much:eek2:

[Badcarma]

Do they sell 100 octane? That way I can use me race side of the chip without detonation:tu:

[ken cryder]

yes 104 . $5.00 a gallon unleaded .

me and Michael are going to be there:d

[T Hogg]

It's starting to look like the Gen 1s will be running things this weekend.:D

But then again, we my have some good drivers show their face and be ready to race.( I was a rapper before I became a racer) .:D

That's whats good about this event, everybody has a chance.

I still haven't heard from any of the NOS Gen 2 guys. What's the deal!! Terry have you talked to any of your NOS custmers? Let them know that we'll take it easy on them if they come.:eek2:

Until we get in the staging lanes and then :hammer: .

[MICHAEL]

Terry, I will be there. I wont be useing quite as big of a shot as last time. I am going to bring my slicks just in case!!! " For after the shootout":d

[Sixpipes]

I'm thinking I might do a little T-n-T with slicks before the actual event, also. Just depends on the weather. Looks like partly cloudy and mid-60s. :cool:

[BigBob]

May be in the neighborhood, is there still a class for slicks?

[T Hogg]

Yes Bob there will be a class for slicks. Are any of your other Halo buddys coming?

Hope to see you there.

[microsuck]

I will bring my Gen 2 with nitrous, but no spraying for me. I am waiting on my chip to return. Bone stock for me. When the chip goes out, it all comes off. I will be able to get there arround 4:30 or 5. Is that too late?
Andrew
Will someone give me the address, or the website where i can grab directions?

[Justin 95L]

well I am not going to be able to make it:( I am not going to be able to get a wide band on my truck before then and I don't want to risk the new motor.

Sorry to hear that. Maybe next time.

[BigBob]

T Hogg - No, I will be the only L. I will be in the area visiting friends and will make the long haul to Denton or Kennedale if it works out with my host's plans. While Denton is a much longer drive, it would be more fun to hang with TALON. I will post later if i can make it.

Ken,
Whats the deal? This is the info that I got from there site.

Fri - Fun & Grudge 6:30pm til 12:30am
Sat - Fun & Grudge 7pm til 12 midnight
Is this correct?

[Badcarma]

Is it in the evening or afternoon:confused:


I am still lost on the time to meet

Scott

[99WhiteBeast]

I'm there if it is the afternoon program- I'm out if its at night.

Can we get some clarification here:confused:

[Sixpipes]

Latest website information says:

http://www.dentondragway.com/

Maybe we can get a clarification as to when the actual event is scheduled to start. :cool:

[tliss]

I'm assuming the events will be run similar to how we did Hallsville. I thought I heard that the actual racing starts at 9. I agree: we need to know what time everything is supposed to take off. If it does start at 9 and we have a bunch of trucks we will be there all freakin' night!

Tom

[Sixpipes]

I sent an email requesting a confirmation on tomorrow's schedule.:cool:

[T Hogg]

So,it looks like we will be racing in the afternoon. See you guys there. Don't forget our driving skills.:D

Sat, Feb 1st

Fun & Grudge
Gates Open @ 1:30pm
Clocks Open @ 2:00pm
Close @ 8:00pm
$10 Admission • $5 to Race

[Denton Dragway]

Sorry I haven't been on the board to keep you guys updated. I have terribly sick over the last week. It always seems like I get sick at the worst possible times...:confused:

Anyway, we are going to be opening earlier than we have been on Saturdays, the hours and prices above are correct.

Also, after-market SC's will be PERMITTED. SO get 'em tuned and ready to go. See you on Saturday.

Nick :nana2

[tliss]

So, what time is everyone going to go? If we can start T&T at 2, I reckon (that one's for you JD:d ) I'd like to get there a little after that. I'll be bringing a few from the McK area with me!

Tom

[Badcarma]

I'm think'n I'll take Tliss:D Maybe race the Rilla :bows



Scott

[tliss]

Remember, they key to winning head to head in the 1/8 on street tires is hooking up on the line. No hooky, no winny..:d

I raced 'Rilla once. He had no chip at the time and still whooped my arse in the 1/8.

Tom

[Sixpipes]

Going to try and get there about 2 o'clock. Have been trying to throw the Plasma Booster on before I leave, but having problems with the connectors and these large mitts of mine. Going to just run my Swanson street chip and hope for the best. See ya'll there. :cool:

[tliss]

I'm out for this. Some stuff came up and I'm not all too happy.

I'll see you guys Thursday.

Tom
