my sisters down there right now. I usually like torturing myself for the 4th...really only into the spec drags and they usually seem to be best then. still toying with entering them but this car is too clean lol plus i have drag radials now...dont think i can race with them...or can i?

Nitto 555r's? Those are legal. Anything that has 100 treadwear and above. Those are actually pretty competitive, that's what I have. NT-01 we had some controversy last year.. they state "For competition use only" on the side but they are 100 treadwear. We had to work with seekonk to allow them legal. Some events people get away with bringing BFG drag radials or MT ET streets which are illegal.. but everybody hates them, lol

Oh I won by the way, lol. Took me 4 years to get back to 1st place. Last year I couldn't even get top 3

I would try it if I were you. You will be safe just giving it a shot. Especially if you race me at first, you won't have any cars near you to worry about ;) If you get serious into it, expect a ding once in a great while especially if you get into a rivalry with a jerk. Whether or not I'd recommend anyone to get serious into the drags is questionable.. I'd maybe recommend getting an AWD car.. better chance of winning if its setup well and you'd have almost no competition (not even me)

Congrats Bryan but I don't think you floored it till the very last race. Some nice cars but none were setup for the place like yours. My buddy Steve blew his trans and rear befor he even got to race lol

Yeah I talked to him. He mentioned he was friends with you. He's a real nice guy. He shot his drive shaft out the back of his car and wrecked his 9 inch rear when we were all pulling in.

I never floor it fast enough lol. Last race I always drive the fastest.
