Rockfalls 28th

rock falls SUNDAY AUGUST 27TH!

I'm waking up this dead post to see who is going to rock falls next weekend. The reason I'm interested in going is to see Tom's 300hp MSP and Aaron's stupid fast 350Z turbo go down the track. This is a rare oportunity and I'm not going to miss it. It only costs $37 for all day racing.

Again this is SUNDAY THE 27TH! not monday the 28th of course.

I was also wondering if anyone had a helmet I can borrow too. If you do I can pick it up any day this week, I would really apreciate it. I don't car if its old and has had rats living in it for a year either, I just need something. Thanks.

I think I am going to try and make it! I also have a helmet, so you can borrow it if I don't go. Is this a Sport Compact day, or Fun Day?
 
If I dont work I plan on going- not like my car is fast yet or anything but I would like to see what she does so I can compare her next summer after my winter mods...
 
I am going to go just to watch... I will wait till next summer to race after I get some performance parts this winter.

it is sport compact day, so that's cool...thanks for the helmet help, let me know if you're going or not later in the week so I can pick it up if I need to.

I was hopeing it was fun day as my buddy with a Typhoon really wants to head up there some time too.

Either way, I don't think I'll be able to make it. I already had plans for the weekend and would feel bad if I backed out on them.

I'll bring the helmet to work this week and just drop it off at your house if you want? Just let me know a good time, but lunch break would probably work best for me....11am-noonish?

LOL

PM me your number and I'll call you when I am heading over and you can let me know if you are there or not. I don't wanna open the door to you naked on the kitchen table with PB and the neighbors dog or something.

(hah) and i could totally see that happening...!!!... hmmmm... but on another note.... I DONT WORK SUNDAY!!! YAHOOOOO!!!! (headbang) This will be my first trip to Rock Falls and I have never raced before so it should be fun!!!!
 
Hey everyone I will out there Sunday morning. Aaron will be there later in the day. He probably will not be able to run his car. I am going to try street tires and see what happens. Not only that I have to learn how to launch the car.
I will be leaving around 6:30am.
 
Sounds good, I think I'll be leaving early too then. I get off work at 7am so I'm going to go home, eat some breakfast and leave then. I'll see you there. Aaron needs to run his car though!
 
Tom, dont dump the clutch. My suggestion is to rev to 2500 to 3000k then ride out the clutch. Then give it hell. Good luck man. Dont be discouraged if you just run in the 14's or something. You know and we all know the car is capable of a lot more. Your 60 foot time might suck with your tires but your trap speed should be quite decent. Try to get some vids.
 
I hope to leave somewhat early... what time does it all start usually? I have never been out there so what should i plan on for driving time?
 
oh yeah.... i wanted to ask.... i think i am going to run my car just because i am curious to see how she does.... im definately a rookie so im wondering if anyone has any pointers...... i know i need a helmet.... im pretty good at shifting without missing gears..... i dont know what all there is too it.... ???

Heres a pointer go on the second yellow light.
The reaction time and how fast ours cars are when you move ot will be green.
 
its a long drive about 100 miles to get there, bring a helmet if you can, they wont let you race without one. it's $37 and I don't think they take credit cards!! bring cash! It starts early and championship rounds are around 3pm I believe. it's simple, once you get there, you'll figure out how it runs really easy. I'll see you all tommorrow!

also buy gas away from the track, there is race gas available somewhere around there but the local gas station only offers regular 87 octane!
 
I am also a rookie... It should be fun though. I have a helmet I will be bringing.
 
Sweet! Thanks guys!!! .... I should be leaving around 7 or so! Your phone will be ringing if I get lost... lol... C ya there! :)
