Re: (local) Import vs Domestic race
since no one can come to a reasonable point just do a "run what you brung" thing. Run 20-30 of each class and average all the results. Do a top 5 vs 5 for the money round. Just to be fair the only restriction should be that the car is registered and driven on the streets of Virginia.

Re: (local) Import vs Domestic race
for understanding what a real drag race is.I have one additional rule... If anyone's shit falls apart at the top end of the track, leaving debris in my lane (one of the sh!tbox hondas did this to me in wild street at Import v. Domestic) not only does the opposite team win, but the driver gets beaten with whatever fell off...
As you can tell I'm still pretty sour about that one.

but see the thought was not that you would see shawns car on the street, he couldnt drive his car on the street due to the rods and a few other little things. i never said he could. but your car? was the same thing as his but not on a slick, you didnt have aluminum rods, and he had more money than you.
and half the time the street runs that this whole shit was started over were from a roll..... so slicks would not be needed as bad anyways. they put us at a disadvantage by putting the runs from a stop. therefore fucking the imports chances of doing anything spectacular by being on a radial.
disagree all you want.... but yes all the other cars i had in mind are perfectly streetable and can be driven to the track.... the only diff between these cars and mine/yours is bigger turbos, and sleeved blocks..... so what stops them from being seen on the street??? nothing. they just choose not to.
shawns car really may not be a street car. (but rules say it is elsewhere) okay, how does that disqualify any of the other cars.... it doesnt. shawn already said he is grudge racing one person for fun.
everycar i had in mind has insurance on it.
hell shawns car has more insurance on it than most of you mustangs guys mortages
no one HAS to trailer it, thats what i was saying.
but who is going to pay for the gas in a truck and a car just to run a street race at the track at a handicap.......
i cant convince anyone to even want to run this is they are going to have to fill up a car, and truck, just to run one night, for shit talking rights and thats it. especially when the original shit talking was about ROLLs, not stops.
but all these races that started this shit were from ROLLS, and no one has ever said "if i was on slicks from that 40 roll or 60 roll i would whomped you" i think anyone and everyone wouldnt have a issue doing any kind of roll on a radial. because tire spin is minimal at higher speeds.
the trailor is NOT a must thing, its just a WHY hassle yourself when the people im thinking of OWN trailers, and have them to do one thing.... tow their cars to the track... why not use what you have...... and not have to wait 2 hours for your friends to bring a trailor to come get you....
its not a arguement and its not my trying to do anything, but when you guys get all excited because you guys beat 500-700 hp hondas, i will remind you they were on 235's. and anyone is not yall will realize yall didnt do shit.
put em on slicks then talk your shit. i think because other wise i just see alot of preying on the weak like i said before.

Bottom line is were going to run these cars the exact way they drive around in this event, and were not having race cars doubling as street cars. For you hampton guys, If you havent seen it at basspro or your other spots driven in and out on its on power, its not going to fit in this, that goes for both sides. Also that goes for all you guys else were to. The guy jojo, mustb18, Marcus, cars like that belong here, others dont. I think the majority of people in here grasp what i am getting at.
on a side not, Tell your boys to bring there slick with them. When this is over i will be more then happy to grudge race any honda there! I will also put money on it that any FWD car can 60 and 330 right there with me on radials. The best i have ever been is 1.81. there aint no way in the world a fwd cant do that on a drag radial.

Without taking the time to quote every post....
Nagger, Much love
I want everyone to run, i dont give a shit about it being fair. You FWD guys made that choice when you built the cars. just as we made the choice of having fat pigs. Its the way it is. im tired of arguing about it. The street car rules are simple, drive it, run it the way you drive it. there done unless someone has something constructive to add without bitching about it. Want to make a set of race rules, those are simple to, pay your entry fee at the gate, run whatever tire you want. Simple set of rules!! but i dont want to here no dam bitching about the cars you imports will be racing against!
Lets make a new list for that.
Me.. 98 cobra-440inch sbf- supercharged auto
Someone said not to be scared of mm, Yeh you better be scared, The man took out richmonds honda hero in a SUV.HAHA!!!!!! (Much love marcus) Sure his car runs in the 8s on 17s. Thats a fast ass street car, the fastest one i know of anywere around here. Its not my fault you boys cant run those numbers even on slicks. My car just went a 9.69@156.9 on a 275/40/17 with a 6 speed 1.94 60ft, 1 hour after i drove it to Zmax in NC on a 102deg day. What you think its going to run on a 275/60/15 with maybe 150+ more horsepower than what it did then?!?! ( if it dont break
)
Yes you import guys have your work cut out for you, i understand if you dont want to get your feelings hurt. But with all the shit talking from both sides, it needs to be settled. Im begging someone to get off the bench with a import and shut me up! Im willing to give 500 out my pocket to someone that can. Your race car races mine, or your real street car races mine. take your pick!
And before anyone says any shit about it. by the hotrod tour that takes place every year. My race car by there rules is 100% legal to race in it. also the same rules marcus wanted, Glass, tags, lights, your good to go!
Edit.. Nagger, this post was not intended toward you. just in general for everyone.

Re: (local) Import vs Domestic race
I don't mean for each individual run, I mean figure it off the total average for either the import group, or the domestic group, whichever has the higher MPH average.
