Congrats Jeff!
Jeffs timeslip looks like it was photoshopped. Sketchy.
congrats to all on the list
I wonder, if you guys are willing to post it. For the top ten, how much money does each guy have in their own car? I bet there is a little bit of money tied up in the top ten! Not counting the sweat and tears.
I have a good amount tied up in mine mostly due to the cost of a brand new car (in 2011).Quote:

I try not to think about that. I really have no idea on the "total". I've had my coupe since '99. Started racing it as a stock 302/5sp setup in NMRA F/S in '00, added gt40p heads, then built a R block 347 in '02, then my current turbo 338 in '10-11. Lots of upgrades along the way. Now I'm thinking of selling my coupe as a roller this winter. Want something newer/different.Quote:

Hopefully your car lol
My guess is crying about what's a street car, people not being honest whether they sold a car or broke it. You know the same stuff every year. My plan is to make mine faster than the year before, meet old and new friends. If it makes the list, great. If not there's always next year. Congrats to all who participated.Quote:

Sounds like a recipe for disaster! My car is 7th and even its scary as hell on street tires!:DQuote:

Guess you could dial it down a bit if you chose to run a higher end street legal car in the class.Quote:

Plenty of cars coming factory 650+HP with street tires on them. Have a fun.
Street tire series have existed in the past, the issue is participation. Those not serious enough to bolt on a proper set of tires are not likely to run the whole series. Therefore they dont last. Why not just bolt up a blower and dr's on your ride and go 10.0's? Sounds alot better than trying to peddle it and stay off the wall on poopy street tires..
That is the ideal.Quote:

I'm good either way though. Just thought it a good idea. Never knew it wa tried and failed. No reason to repeat history if it failed to generate interest. :bigthumbQuote:

well spoken walter
The issue is that at least the 8.5" slicks are still consistent and predictable....you just don't have that with street tires.Quote:

I guess if you cant keep it straight dont be in that class.
yep, it's happened to guys on the boardQuote:

Hell, the 20" Pilot Super Sports on the boss, cost more than a dr.
No kidding. My no torque making 2V 4.6 will vaporize street tires until 4th gear. MT ET Street Radials will be street tires from now on.Quote:

wasnt saying you in particular but people generally spend money to go faster and race to get the best times possible. so what would be point in racing a high hp car on street tires or making a special class just for it LOL
Good point lol not to sure why I even said anything cause my car never make a pass on street tires.
What has it ran?Quote:

OK you Dirty Dozen.... send me a PM with your real name and address so we can get a sticker mailed out to you! The design has not been finalized and will be posted when it is. Since a requirement of being on the DD is active participation on this board, failure to PM me with your info may mean you are not a participant and may be removed from the list.
I received my sticker today....very cool!! So much for being a sleeper with that bad boy displayed on the car.Quote:
