[sleeper3]

[SPEED3TYPE2]

fugita cia

 

[sleeper3]

ewwwwwwwww

anyhoo, I'd be very interested to see him make a run in that car. post a vid up when you can!

 

[SPEED3TYPE2]

yeah i'll get on with in the next week or two. wish the damm track wasn't so far away 70miles...

 

[sleeper3]

oh sick, and I complain about the one here being 15 miles away. that sucks for you guys.

 

[SPEED3TYPE2]

man 15 miles would be sweet!! id be out there just about every weekend

 

[sleeper3]

yeah I used to do that in highschool. now I have way more responsibilities so I can't make it out as much.

 

[aaronc7]

I would have taken mine to the track by nwo but I think the closest one is orlando blah

 

[sleeper3]

orlando is like an hour from daytona, right?

 

[aaronc7]

yeah. It's gonna depend which side of orlando it's on...not sure where the track is. I CHECK NOW

 

[sleeper3]

YOU CHECK NOW!

it's worth it to go at least once... even though our track is close, it still takes almost an hour to get there.

 

[aaronc7]

It's way eat of orlando. directly south of me, lol (I take 95 not I-4). google maps says 57 mins.

 

[sleeper3]

Hit That Shiz Up!

launch around 3k rev all the way up til 6k in first then drop it into 2nd and let the fun begin =P

I am surprised moroso has been open as long as it has. I've seen people die there.

Why would they close it? It's a dangerous sport and someone is destined to 'check out' at some point. I've seen some pretty close calls over there but thankfully no deaths . Was it a top fueler, jet car or speed bike the person(s) died on?

I tried to launch at 3k. endless wheelspin.

I've seen a white cobra there run 7s, I hope it's not that guy. Anyway the track is barricaded on both sides so he must've overran the track by a good bit or something. Or this was a long long time ago.

Anyway I'm pretty sure the paper work that each driver signs before racing immunizes the track from any lawsuits unless they didn't enforce the helmet or roll cage rule when they should've.

it was when I was in highschool, which would make it around 10 years ago... before the barracades were the way they are now. I remember watching the pepsi jet car nationals from what seemed like 5 feet away from the track. we've come a long way.

I don't think you'd be hard pressed to find a lawyer who would at least TRY to sue anyone, no matter how iron clad the paperwork is. there is always a loophole, and people are always willing to settle.

 

[sleeper3]

well here is my much anticipated time slip...
