Going to Island Dragway Sunday May 1st
 
I'm going to Island Sunday May 1st alone to do some test and tune
with the Dart.
Is anyone interested in going? I hate to ask but,
I could use a hand you know an extra set of eyes to help with how
she launches.
I'd like to get it buttoned up before the Mopar Nats.
Anyone going to be around?

Right now I am planning on going out there as long as I can get my stuff together but I will know better by the end of the week.

mikelbeck 04-25-2005 02:22 PM

I'm planning on being at Atco on the 30th, I don't think I'd be able to make it to Island the next day.

Let me know.

Tony, I plan on racing on Saturday, but I'm gonna try and make it on Sunday to be your 2nd set of eyes.

Mike, why don't you just go to Island on Saturday?

$5,000 to win at Atco.

sickt7cuda 04-25-2005 05:25 PM

Mike, what's the entrance fee? And do I need mufflers?

Thanks Dan, I hope you can make it.
I just looked at the weather station. It says rain and thunderstorms
Saturday and Sunday.
I hope they are as right as they were this past weekend :roll:

I don't think you need mufflers, every time I've run there I've run open exhaust.

$85 to get in, $50 buyback.

Here's the flyer:

Mike, how long a ride to Atco timewise and how long is it to get back home.

To tell the truth, I don't really know. One time I went it took over 4 hours - lots of traffic. Another time was much less, around 3 hours, I think. That's from Mt. Sinai in the middle of Long Island. Coming home was about the same, I think.

If the weather looks better at Island than it does at Lebanon Valley I will go there. Atco is too far for me. The way the weather forecast is, I won't be racing anywhere this weekend... :(

Forcast is the same as last weekend.
Lets hope they are wrong again :wink:
Then...... :3gears:

I'm seeing rain for Saturday & Sunday. What are they saying by you?

onehellofadart 04-27-2005 10:41 AM

Rain and T-storms for both Sat & Sun. :cry:

sickt7cuda 04-27-2005 07:17 PM

I'm seeing rain on Saturday :( and partly cloudy on Sunday [-o<

Tony, if you go on Sunday, bring some white shoe polish and a camcorder if you got one.

Shoe polish n/p. Camcorder I don't own one. :roll:

onehellofadart 04-28-2005 06:04 PM

:shock: They stopped predicting rain for Sunday.

sickt7cuda 04-28-2005 09:04 PM

Yeah, I saw that. I'll be there Sunday.

Mopower71 04-28-2005 09:39 PM

Great Dan! :3gears:

onehellofadart 05-01-2005 07:21 AM

Weather says rain in Great Meadows till at least 10am today.
What do you think worth the treck for a track thats been rained
on for 2 days plus this morning ?

Dan is it raining hard by you?
How good is Island after a soaking?

onehellofadart 05-01-2005 08:46 AM

I'll probably kick myself, but I'm not going today:(

mikelbeck 05-01-2005 09:06 AM

It's pouring, here. My neighbor was going to go to Atco today but he's still home, I guess he decided not to go.

Oh well, there's always next week!

Unfortunately Next weekend is Mothers day and I have to finish
prettying up the landscaping on Sat for the Mother-in-laws visit.

Does that include digging a big hole and camoflaging it with grass. :shock:

Didn't think of that. :-k
It is genuinely a great idea though. :mrgreen:
I think my wife would help me :mrgreen:

BBLM23 05-01-2005 12:44 PM

Rained out! :( After a 2 hour drive...
Started raining when I was 1 minute from the track. They had already dried everything once...

onehellofadart 05-01-2005 01:50 PM

Island or LVD?
