Hmmmm.... should I run the dakota or the Jeep...

My buddy's got a lifted Ram 2500 V10 and always wanted to know what it would do at the track. This should be fun

i've got a buddy with a little green civic hb that keeps beating my n/a laser, i should take my talon and spank him:)
let me know where to sign and who to give the money to and i am there with about 5-7 friends right behind me

Wait a minute why does it say Sept 21st here and May 30th on CII?? LOL!

It's set for May 30th 2004 this year!! Sorry for the cut-and-paste error.

Wouldnt you know it, I have graduation that day... DAMN the scheduling commitee for that dick in my ass!

I'm gonna try to be there as well.

I'm there fo sho.

I'll be there pissing in their gas tanks along with the track employees. I've got a weak bladder so anybody that needs some extra kick in their tank can let me know to top them off as well.....and I won't even charge 7 F*^%ING DOLLARS A GALLON!

Oh yeah, word to the wise, check your spark gaps too.

Awesome! You know I'm there. Let me know if you need any help getting things set up, Marcus. Looks like your setting yourself up for another late night deadline on the Talon.

I'll be staying away from that damn 116 oct, aka (miami?) Kris piss.

Here's my new incentive to get the car done! Now if I can only get it done and still have enough time to practice my shifting. It's been over a year since I've driven a manual transmission. I'm there...if I can get somebody to trailer my car there lol. Not having a liscense sucks!

Here is a quote from a local Mustang 5.0 owner that has run a best of 13.8et @ 115mph on the bottle. Hahaha... 'We decided to not let the mustangs and camaros compete in the trophy contest because we know they would take them all home. cause they are to fast for us to keep up with.'

Looks like somebody at slopny is messing with Marcus's account. Luke? Brian? Josh?

HEY! I just realized that's my birthday as well! I didn't really pay much attention as to the date when I first saw it for some reason, but that will make for double the fun. Who's up for throwin back a couple of brews after the trip down the strip to celebrate?

When are you going to post a sign up site?

I am doing it right now! will be done later today or tomorrow!

Sign up sheet is done!

It is the same as last year! let me know if there is any errors! it should work just fine!

there's an extra http:// in the url box in the pop up window. just delete one of them to see the page.

I'm retarded. I signed up twice.

I wanna see a "fastest Daily Driver category". the driver with the most to risk and where if you shit breaks your SCREWED.

That's what most of the cars entered are daily drivers. There are a few exceptions like the MAXIMUM BOOST brothers Kris and Nate, that have the wealth to afford both a VERY fast DSM and an EVO daily driver. The rest of us drive what we race and don't drive when it's broke.

There is a seperate section for all out tubbed and caged cars. The rest are for all our street driven semi-dependable projects.

Would you clarify for me how you are determining a "sport compact" vs other cars? I can see the typical DSM's, hondas, whatever, but I have a little bit of a problem if you are going to allow 3/s cars to compete for trophies, but not camaros, vettes, stangs , etc... What will be the determining factor?

(Not trying to be an ass, I'm not as concerned about winning a trophy as I am making sure the playing field is level)

Here's the problem...Last year we gave out a quarter of our 'Sport Compact' trophies to Domestic V8's. This is all fair except this event is to promot imports and 'Sport compacts' in general. So giving trophies out to non-import/sport compacts seemed pretty rediculous.

Sport Compact Drag Challenge is a title meant to generalize vehicles that most call 'Imports'. This group usually includes domestic sport compact cars. 3S cars are import cars and for one they don't win very often so there is no extra concern for them than any other import in my mind. No offense to those heavy slugs...they have nice interiors.

If all of the DSM's with so much potential would have actually showed up with good running cars last year no domestics would have went away with trophies and this wouldn't be an issue.

Kapeesch!?!

This could be "interesting."

Alright, alright...chill out guys. This is dsmcentral, not CII. We'll have plenty of opportunities to take out frustrations with cars and paintball guns over the next few months.

I'm going to be aiming for some nards

Haha! With your car or the paintball gun?

uh uh uh....... yes lol

muwahahahaha.....dan can I race my saturn against you lmfao I got $5 that says you'll kick my ass lol.......

I posted this in the other thread.

I'll add an addendum here though:

3. If its just some shit-talking to get some races going and no sides are taking any real offense then shit-talk away. (This is more commonly seen on here and I don't see it as part of the CII drama syndrome)

Soooooooo..............Nate, nice weather out tonight huh? Did you hear it's supposed to be up around 70 on saturday? lmfao

Sounds like good car weather! Looks like there could be some rain though.

anybody else having "deliverance" flashbacks?

all this talk about butts is making feel a little frisky lmfao j/k Is there anything going on tonight? ( my feeble attempts at changing the subject don't seem to be working lol)

Quiet you! Don't make me turn on my admin priveleges and turn off your posting priveleges.

That's gratitude for ya.

Oh holy moly lmfao

HEY I have 3 little red squares by my name now!! wooooooooooo hooooo...... doing the happy dance, doing the happy dance. I think this calls for a liter-a-cola!!!

That was weak. I don't even need to turn on my admin priveleges to get rid of that. Cubs game is on now though, so I'll leave you little boys and your little cars to your pissing match.

rained out natedogg, back to the pissing match

cubs= teh GHEYEST come on now no body cares about em. We all know without the cards WHOOOPIN the astros they wouldnt tied for first.

Keep it on subject azzholes...

and back to the butt subject gggggggggrrrrrrrrrr baby lol

Lots of reference to ass, but completely devoid of dick and fart jokes...

...interesting

mmmmmmmm those are nice too I guess ....well, not farts lol..... but the booty is where it be's!!! lol

Wow I leave this and its up to 5 freakin pages. Well back on subject... I'll kick both your asses. How bout them apples

apples and asses.......don't know if that would make a good combo On a serious note I'm going to be going to this as a spec. only and will be taking the rango......if anyone doesn't feel like driving or needs me to take some extra parts for them let me know....so far only 2 seats taken and 6 left

Feel like using that bad boy to tow an extra car out there to race?

Maybe in exchange for gas money?

Are you gonna have Frankenstien make it's first appearance this year?!?! That'd be sweet! God only knows it's been in the works long enough!!


I've been debating about hauling my car up, not that I really need to, but more in case someone needed the lift home (like last year, right Marcus ). Dogone broke a$$ DSM's!!

lol I would be more than happy to tow it up for you ...however..... it does have the towing package but no friggin hitch I could uh maybe uh put it in the back of the rango though lol
