Anyone going tonight? I'll be there after I get the glasspacks hooked up. They're closed Saturday this week, so there should be a good turnout. A person could still easily make 20 passes or more for the $15 if they wanted.

1/8th. Just learned that Texas Raceway in Kennedale is having a big event there so that will take some of the load off of Denton. FWIW, they run from 7pm to 1am for $15 or 10-1am for $10.
I am definitely interested in heading up there but it's going to have to be after the 8/11 trip to San Antonio.
Wish I could Red, but got some mods to do this weekend.
Sounds cool to me. I need to gather me some $$$ so I can do more mods. Still paying for the header mods and I need pipes and mufflers. :whack:

when i get my truck back we may head to denton, but that may be a while. my sister lives in lewisville now, kinda sucks cuz she used to live in denton, up until last week :bash:
Lewisville is close to Denton, just a little out of the way from Waco.

nah the f18 is in the garage right now, im putting 5 turbos on it so yeah. itll do like 500 mph when im done with it.
Hey Red,I think next weekend me and use2bfo will come up.Ive got to do some more stuff to my truck as well....I think my ABS went out tonite.....service brake system on screen and a lot of bells and whistles.Same thing it did when my tranny exploded.
Well, didn't do much better. Best of the night was 9.48. Drop .05 but I just could not hook up for the life of me. I guess it's time for some kind of traction bar since I'm starting to get some wheel hop. Maybe some gears are needed, too. Possibly 4.10/4.56. Who knows?
How much air & what kind of burnout are you doin. I had to run 15lbs and smoke the shit out of my NASCAR slicks with no water and still didn't get completely hooked up. I think they suck personally.
I was ruining 15 lbs of air and ruining my Nitto 404s with some smokey burnouts. No slicks for me since they don't seem to hook up too well. Time for some ETs? I've got some old 275-35-18s I need to destroy so they'll be going on my spare wheels. Need to find me some 15" slicks for my stock wheels so that I can do a side by side comparison of ETs with different wheel diameters and tire sizes. Time to go pick some more green off of the neighbors money tree since mine is baren right now.
That's prolly why your getting wheel hop. Those big ole wheels are just too heavy and they really make those leaf springs wind up. I wheel hop like a bitch with my 20's if I start to slightly lose traction, but with the 15's I don't. I only get w/h if I moderately lose traction with the 20's, if I blow em off I have no problems.
My 92 ran the 18s also and I never had wheel hop problems but I ran Goodyear 275-35-18s on them instead of the taller 285-50-18s I'm currently running. I think it could be the larger mass of rubber. I love to watch the guys with Caltracs accelerate. They just seem to launch so much better.
