BC DSM Shootout!! (June 20)

Chris, as always, the grudge match is on!

Just ordered the stage 1 kit. Some guys that can drive decently will be seeing high 12s.

Of course I have a hard time handling such a powerful piece of Dodge equipment, so it will be interesting to see what happens..... :D

You don't need to drain antifreeze if you're 95+ I believe.

ah right that's true, but still a good thing to do, if you somehow leak some onto the track, you'll have 200 angry racers ready to kick your ass :)

antifreeze is reeeaally slippery which of course is not good for drag racing :)

If anyone spills antifreeze on the track they shut the whole thing down for the night because it takes that long to clean up properly.

Are you gonna show up Troy? Last time I heard your Talon was in the shop.  What were you doing to it?

I've got a giant crack in my windshield. Would they let me run with it or am I warming the benches? Either way, I'm going, but I can't seem to find anything on the MRP website.  Anyone?

I don't think they'll hassle you about the window.  When I've been they look under the hood... scrunch their foreheads in a "what the hell... there's only 4 spark plug wires and they're lined up the wrong way..." kinda way then they give the battery a shake and send me on my merry way.   :D

Looks like I'll be running new tires for the shootout, hehe, hopefully they hook up nice and help out my sorry wwd a$$.   :laugh:

You have to drain your antifreeze and put in plain water instead.  That way the car doesn't overheat and if you blow a line or whatever, well big deal, it's water... they mop it up and everyone's good to go.  Antifreeze is a chemical though and will take alot more cleanup and make alot more mess.
