^^^ The Fiero was Fier-OWNED!

 

After looking at the video of the Dallas track, maybe we should build a under tray, AKA Rock guard for the entire bottom of the car, like the Rally cars do?

 

^^^ Or just stay on the track???

 

Right!!

 

...... the five P's

Better safe than sorry. How bad is the track if you get off course?

 

^^^ Watch the end of the video in post 498

 

Yeah I was just there this past weekend, as long as you stay on track you should be fine. Unfortunately had issues with my car and didn't get to spend much time on the track. It's a lot more fun than I remember though, so yall will have a blast.

 

Staying on the track. Check..... But I took the car off track at about 100mph in a turn at No Problem Raceway, so that could be a problem.

P.S. The rear tires where crap!!

 

Haha, yeah you definitely don't want to go off at 100 here lol. No matter what, do not go off at turn 11. There is a guardrail/wall probably not even 25ft off the track. A lot of the turns are off camber. definitely be careful if you have bad rears, the track is quite bumpy in a lot of places, usually in the middle of turns where you don't want the rear sliding out

 

Fixed

Anyway, I have a set of S5 vert wheels (BBS mesh) on my car atm 7, but I dunno if Ide like the T2 wheels More Pictures!

 

Three weeks to dallas!

You guys should put together a wish list of extra parts you'd like so i can see if I've got anything around to nab and take along.

 

S4 or S5 TII rear end
S4 or S5 TII Trans
Vert BBS Rim(s)

RV or MH to crash/party in lol

7dust/Scott will chime in with more

 

You dallas guys know the track layout better than we do so we are going to depend on your reconnoisance in finding us a pimp place to set up camp. We are depending on you since we have never been to the track before. Also - if we end up in a crappy place, it gives us the option to blame you!

Close-ish to the track so we can see
Close-ish to the refueling area because we spend a lot of time doing that
Close-ish the penalty box because we end there up anyway
Close-ish to the showers and bathrooms

Oh yeah - a place where there aren't too many generators making noise or lights around when it gets dark. We need a place to set up the projector for Guitar Hero! Anyone have a big *** stereo they can bring?


Optional stuff:
two way radios for the car
video camera mount
A few racks of Baby Back Ribs to strap to the Carbecue.

 

.....bring my Rockband 2 stuff now that it is all fixed and ready to go. We have a stero system but the disc reader is broken but u might still be able to use the speakers that come with it. Right now there are just paper weights at my house so let me know if u want me to bring them.

 

You will definitely want to try and get there early or when they open to get a spot, cause there is very little paddock room. Referring to the picture you'll see the best place to set up. Not 100% sure if they'll let you paddock there for this event but it's open at all the ones I've done, and considering the lack of space at the marked parking area, I'm sure it will be open. Anywho set up in the circled area, that will get you close to everything. The only indoor bathrooms, and shower are in the main building so you'll be close to that as well. It will also get you next to the fuel station, places to see the track (not many of them). It's also a much smaller area than the general parking down below so you won't have as much noise due to less people being able to set up there. hope that helps!

 

To the people that took the shoes off the Lemon, please bring them back, it is a poor car and needs all the shoes it can get.

 

^^^ Don't park your Lemon in a bad neighborhood.

 

......"Oh Noooooooooooooooooooooooo, They took the tires!"............"............"Those are the Lemons Tires!"...................."I Know..............."

 

 

Can you say HOT TUB.......


We need a place to fill it in Dallas, anyone up?

 

^^^ Who has another 220V generator?

Need one for the pump and one for the heater.

Don't make me bring the propane crawfish cooker.

 

I am going to talk to my nabor down the road, he has a 12,000 watt one

It would run everything

 

whoa whoa whoa, what? Hot tub x Lemons = awesome. can I come?

 

^^^ Chucks's Chick might not be enough of a buffer for the Testosterone Soup that is prolly gonna be cookin on top of the trailer. So yeah - you're invited.

Would take away from some of Teh Gayness Factor from too many dudes in the tub.

Forcast is for 103 degrees Saturday and Sunday - a Cold Tub sounds better.
