Midnight madness saturday 6/15

[sharpie]

who all is planning on this? i know a few of us from the des moines area are planning on attending and maybe camping overnight if its nice!

[FiFdYnUtZ]

I'm considering it...assuming my car doesn't float away this week

[sharpie]

oh man thats no joke

[sharpie]

hopfully we can get cmart in on this . hes always down for a boosh light at cfr!!

[JustaGT]

I'm with Tyler, the car is at my dads shop in Marshalltown. Given it is still there and the highways out of town are open again I plan on going.

[Larsons Fox]

I plan on going to this. As of right now it looks like my car will be ready. :headbang:

[Phish]

I plan on going to this as well. Not sure if the car will be ready and if it is on what setup it will be ran, but i will be there spectating or running, time will tell

[c_mart_28]

As long as I can keep my sanity whilst working on my car, my car comes together and my car holds together (in that order) I plan on making it.

A boosh light I might very well partake in. Might get crazy. Have two. Who knows.

Run a 9, take my pants off. See what happens.

Do you plan on running saturday during the day or just the midnight deal??

[sharpie]

I think we will get there by 7 or so

[RedRocketZ28]

I will be heading up as well. Plan on seeing what the old 10 bolt can take.

[c_mart_28]

Is there any racing during the day? It looks to just be a midnight event. Which I would normally abstain from. I just need to get a few passes in the car.

Appears that they will be running during the day as well. I would rather get a few passes in during the day as well and head back.

Casey hows the Stang running? Did you ever get some tuning done on it? I remember a while back you were looking to get some tuning done with Bob Kurgan and since hes moved out of here wasn't sure if you ever found anyone.

[c_mart_28]

It's finally almost back together, actually. Right prior to Kurgan being in town it developed a nasty issue under load that didn't seem tune related. Got the blower off only to fund a minor vac leak and a tear in the intake manifold gasket. I'm hoping to have it on the road this weekend. We'll see...

With the proefi I've only had Chris Moore tune it. Because of various mechanical issues, results have been disappointing so far.

[sharpie]

im hoping it will be. i want a piece of that.

[Phish]

^^ what he said

[ashanson]

I might go to this, not sure if I would do the day or night event, but no camping for me since I have to be back in Des Moines on Sunday for fathers day. I need some practice runs in before BIR the following weekend (since I suck at drag racing).
What time is the group from Des Moines heading over there?

[c_mart_28]

Hey hey hey..there's enough to go around.

..pickin on me while I'm down. Buncha cheapshooters :)

[sparkles]

That's what slower cars do man....

[c_mart_28]

Ben we need to get together sometime soon. I miss our talks. And your freakishly soft hands.

[BGjohnson]

I would go to this if I can tag along with somebody!

[Newgen]

[Sunny Z]

I vote somewhere I can hear myself think. Or at least somewhere that has $6 beers worth buying.

Take charge and plan it then. I don't care where we go just a suggestion.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder my friend.

[c_mart_28]

Red car started tonight! Had a pretty serious fuel leak in the very worst possible spot but my good friend.Kelly took care of that with a crazy mixer of a crows foot adapter and several various swivels. Thought for sure I was going to have to pull the blower again. I didn't have to. So I've got that going for me..

Car started, idled smooth and didn't puke any fluids. Seemed to pull solid and steady vacuum. Hope to have it on the road this weekend.

I make it sound like I've accomplished so much..I replaced the intake manifold gaskets and a few vacuum leaks. Compared to all you guys I'm amateur hour.

[Sunny Z]

FACK. Just realized you have to have DOT tires......... My ET Drags are not DOT.

HMMMMMM

[Sleepy]

Haha, I know this feeling quite well. At least you provide me comfort in knowing I am not the only one that takes forever to get the simple things completed.

Love me some amateur hour. Congrats on getting the car going!

HMMMMMM
Pit stop tune up? After tech, that is.. (wheel/tire swap..in case you're not picking up what I'm putting down..)

[c_mart_28]

Congrats on getting the car going Casey!

Thanks man. Now quit doing upgrades. Let me be competitive for a while! I'm getting left behind by you ballers!

[RedRocketZ28]

Ha! You are talking to the wrong guy. I am nowhere near some of these other guys here as far as baller status goes. Remember, I have a $200 transmission and a whiny 10 bolt still! Thinking the rear end may be on order though soon...;)

MWC Fab 9? Madman?

[c_mart_28]

I'm putting on what you're taking off ;)
You may wanna wash it first. Just sayin'

[RedRocketZ28]

MWC Fab 9? Madman?

Probably just go with a Moser from Brute Speed. Don't want to wait 6 months for a MWC and the Moser will be a bit cheaper all said and done.

Are we going to see some wheelies after that?

check with teamz he has been working on some f-bodys.. he did the 9inch in my fox for me

[sparkles]

Mine just came from Quick in Ames. I have no complaints other than you gotta make sure you get everything you wanted before you leave. They sent me out the door with the wrong brakes and lugnuts, but gave me the right stuff with no issues. It's a tad cheaper, but built just as good as the Moser. Even comes standard with LCA relocation brackets installed, whereas I believe Moser wants $75. Housing and axle package is $995.

[90blkbrd]

So who is all going and when?

[JustaGT]

I'm planning on heading up. Ill probably get up there late afternoon to early evening.

[Phish]

I will most likely be going. The car shoudl be running by then but not race worthy. Might ride up with someone

[RedRocketZ28]

I will be there embarrassing myself more than likely. What time are people leaving from Des Moines?

[Larsons Fox]

I plan on testing all day. Probably head there around 1 or so.

[Sunny Z]

I'd actually be in for an earlier departure as well. I'd like to get lots of time on the track and learn the car a little more.

[sparkles]

+1 for the earlier time.

[FiFdYnUtZ]

are you guys going to stay for the night shit? i might go for farts and laughs

[JustaGT]

Im up for running earlier as well. I may run both but either way I'm sure ill stay at least to watch the midnight deal.

[90blkbrd]

Is the track pretty strict on the helmet rules? I don't have one. If they are where is a good place to purchase one at a reasonable price?

summit racing. local motorcycle shops. i think walmart even has helmets

[Sunny Z]

I'm sure they will make sure you have one. Last year they even checked SNELL ratings. Mine is out of date, but they've let me run. Need to upgrade.

Unsure if I'll be making it up or not, if so I usually bring my helmet incase someone needs one. It's snell & dot.

[sparkles]

Just picked me up one at Karl's. I got checked at EVille a couple weeks ago. I would make sure you have one. Aaron might have an extra, but I'd get one either way.

[JustaGT]

Ill bring 2 up also. I have my old Simpson bandit that I know is snell approved for at least another 3 years that I will tech with. Then probably switch to my motorcycle helmet for comfort.

Yeah, afraid we aren't coming up. Just to iffy for us considering it's a 3 hour drive from down here.

[c_mart_28]

Just looked at the weather for Saturday. Now showing 70% chance of rain.

Better get my kegerator stocked for the weekend at home in the garage..

Well. In case it does rain. I'm prepared. Precious cargo.

[Sunny Z]

so what's everyone thinking?

[FiFdYnUtZ]

I'm probably going to.go scouting for.spots for july's shennanigans, and if the weather pans out I might ride up to this to.get drunk and run my mouth

[OldSkoolRCR]

And watch the Ricers get it done, along with a few dirt dropping diesel trucks!!!! Should be awsome track conditions.

[sparkles]

When and where Casey? I've got my good wife beater on.

[93stang5oh]

I think it's supposed to rain in the morning but clear out after that.

[90blkbrd]

Not looking good.
67% chance of rain 10am-8pm
44% chance of rain 7pm-12pm

[sparkles]

Just got done watching the radar and forecast. I think it might stay south of CF. Crossing fingers.
