![]() If anyone is interested some friends & I are heading up to LACR in Palmdale, CA. to drag race our cars on the evening of Wed. 02/26. Gates open at 5pm, racing starts at 5:30 & goes until 10pm. We're going on a Wed. because it is a lot less crowded than Fri. nights or Sundays. So far, there's a '00 Lightning going, a modded '96 Firebird Formula, a slightly modded '95 Camaro, a mid 12 sec. '68 Camaro, & a Honda Civic that runs 15.0s...just to name a few. And of course I'm bringing my '90GT.

![]() Wow, no replies?! No Mustangs in the So.Cal. area with a free Wed. night, huh? We'll be going again at the end of March or beginning of April. If anyone is planning on drag racing their stangs at LACR in Palmdale any time around those dates...please post it, or e-mail me. I'd love to meet up with some of you guys, match a face & car to the name.

![]() Well, I don't own a Stang anymore, but I might be able to make it in my Regal. I was supposed to go to Famoso tomorrow, but my wife got sick, so I have to stay home with the kids. I drive a dark blue 2000 Regal GS. I'm swapping the blower pulley tomorrow, so I am hoping to break into the 14s at LACR. I ran there once stock and pulled a 15.42 uncorrected. So I guess I'd be one of the slowest in the group, oh well. It sounds like you have a good diverse crowd going.

![]() Sorry I lagged on posting my times. To tell you the truth I wasn't all that thrilled about them because I didn't end up beating my previous best of 13.2 @ 102mph, like I was hoping to do. It was really cold on 02/26 so I was hoping that would have helped my time out. But it had been raining most of that week, and there was rain clouds looming overhead all night. Luckily it never rained, but there was moisture in the air which aparently didn't help any. The best time I could muster was 13.38 @99.8mph. Keep in mind that this track is at 2700' above sea level. So the correction is just under a half a second. It works out to around .48 & some change, accoreding to their website. Out of all the cars that came with us, everyone was running about 1-2 tenths slower than their previous best & around 2-3mph slower. So I'm thinking that the air quality was the culprit of everyone's slower times. I did however pull off a new best 60ft. time on motor. I've pulled a 1.70 on the juice before...but on the 13.38 run I turned a 1.71 60ft. time. And that was with hardly any water in the burnout box. Lazy track officials & it was getting late.

LACR sucks?? And you say go to Carlsbad?? I've heard Carlsbad is much worse than LACR, as far as track conditions go. Dirt on the track, bumpy, weeds growing through the cement towards the end of the 1320'. Are any of those complaints true? I've yet to trek down there. Is Carlsbad where you usually run? All bitching aside though...my buddies & I plan on hitting up Carlsbad sometime in the next couple of months to do exactly that..."get us some good timeslips". ![]() ![]() |
