I'm wiht you on this one, is it like pinks but instead of arm drops they flicker a flashlight?

 

[thejeans]

flashlight drags are set up to simulate street racing in a safe and legal place...
basically a place where you go and can drag race an 1/8th mile stretch against your buddies or any and everyone you want to...

once you line up with your buddy or whoever you were planning to run, a guy or girl stands between the 2 cars and when he/she shines the flashlight you go... there are lights for each lane at the end of the 1/8th to show winner and thats it... not slips, no times etc etc... just kinda a "run what ya brung" old fashioned street race without any fears of cops and that kind of thing... they normally take place on a small 1/8th mile strip, sometimes on BeaveRun's straight away, and yeah you get the idea haha

 

[Lewis7789]

Ohhhh, that's what I figured but didn't know of a place we could do this legally. I'm all for that though. I've got the slowest car but it would still be fun to try to keep up.

So what time is the DYNO gonna take place? It's a 6-hour trip for me and speed3.5.

Also can somebody give me the address for the DYNO shop please?

 

[gtlaw]

this could work out great the fld doesn't start racing untill 4pm that will leave plenty of time to dyno

we will have a meeting place for you guys and the Ohio guys right off an exit on the PA turnpike then the plan is to all caravan up...

yeah we should have ample time to get the cars through on the Dyno then make it up to the FLD

Sounds good. Thanks! Exchanging phone numbers with some people at the meeting area is in order!

the one I went to a few years back started at 12 so I was expecting a mad rush at the dyno or else missing out on most of the racing

[Evan9999]

I like the Flashlight Drags idea instead of doing 1/4 on the dyno.

 

[thejeans]
