Ricers Invaded the track tonight

Eric4Nitrous · 09-20-2002, 09:18 PM

I got to the track around 5:00 tonight and usually theirs a couple cars there. Everybody gets their around 6 or later. Damn, I thought i was in the national import meeting or something. The WHOLE pit area was covered with nothing but rice. Me and a guy in a 69 Camaro were the only american cars there

I went about my business..me and a couple guys on my crew. Unloaded the car and decided to set the wheelie bars a little lower than normal cuz i had a feeling it was gonna come up in a hurry. So i walk up to the track before anybody runs and walk on the starting line to see how much sticky it was. My foot about got stuck to the pavement so i knew it was gonna be good. I hurry back to the pits Fire the stang up and hurrily get in line before it gets too packed. I swear when my car started up all the ricers ran. it was hilarious. They just stared at it like they never saw anything like that before.haha So i do my burnout and stage the car. All the ricers ran to the fence to see a real car run. I brought the revs up and all of a sudden it cuts off?? I'm like WTF? So try to restart it and it wouldn't fire. Luckily the track crew was friendly. So i finally get it restarted and stage bring the revs up again and let it rip. Blistered down the track on all three stages to a 4.32 174mph. Fastest time yet in the car. All in all it was a good night. I only ran twice because the car keeps backfiring through the carbs.

So that's more work i got to do to it.

I hate ricers just as much as the rest of us 'stangers do but I've seen some ricers that are pretty freakin fast!!
An inport without a turbo isn't worth crap IMO.

Eric4Nitrous · 09-20-2002, 09:51 PM

True..i think the fastest one their tonight was a 9.40 at around 77mph tonight in the 1/8th.

82 GT · 09-20-2002, 09:58 PM

I'm a 1/4 guy...your're gonna have to put that into terms I understand better.

Eric4Nitrous · 09-20-2002, 10:22 PM

Eric4Nitrous · 09-21-2002, 12:55 AM

these things were incredibly slow. It was almost boring to watch them go down the track.

Crazy Horse GT · 09-21-2002, 01:12 AM

my bad, i thought you were talking abought your car hehehe, just joking with ya.

mustangman65_79 · 09-21-2002, 04:59 AM

So u didn't run the quarter?

Eric4Nitrous · 09-21-2002, 09:39 AM

no, I didn't run the 1/4 last night. But within the next two weeks i'm gonna run it and see if i can hit the 6's now.

mustangman65_79 · 09-21-2002, 02:51 PM

Hehe, u can't tell that I've been waiting can u

bugging u all that I can

mustangman65_79 · 09-21-2002, 02:55 PM

Using the analyzer here, that converts to a 6.74 @219.24.

So I'm seeting a goal for u, it is 6.8 @210, sound good?

Eric4Nitrous · 09-21-2002, 03:03 PM

Sounds good to me

that was supposed to say seting, but I think u got the point.

The Deuce · 09-23-2002, 09:09 PM

I'm not sure how I let that slip by.

That's a sweet run man. I can only imagine how many of those ricers had to change their shorts when you fired up.

Let us know how you fare on the 1320.

Eric4Nitrous · 09-23-2002, 09:26 PM

I'll prolly nail the 1/4 one time before the season is over with. This car runs extremely well with the new nitrous setup. It's haulin the mail. I've been cutting consistent 1.06 60fts and .430 lights

I thought you would red light if you cut anything under .5. How you swinging that? Pro tree?

Eric4Nitrous · 09-23-2002, 09:35 PM

Pro tree my friend

Pro tree

Kevin Price · 09-24-2002, 08:41 AM

Oh Eric, you're just jealous of all of those ricers. Go ahead and go buy one.

Sounds like your car IS hauling some serious mail, wish I could get mine to run that well. Guess I need to throw some spray at it. I too hate it when ricers are at the track. All they do is ruin the track, really sucks.

Should have mine rolling tonight. Stretched a rod and hosed some bearings, not too bad I guess.

Eric4Nitrous · 09-24-2002, 11:32 AM

Kevin that's great to hear that your car will be running again. You need the jug on that car man..You know you want to
