[Phil@rise]

Burn out comp (dippers in mustangs welcome) is at 4 and they only accept 200 racers a night so we'll be leaving by 2.

[josel_atr]

im actually thinking about it but i dont have a helmet yet.

weather is supposed to be okay....

How fast is your car? that you think you need a helmet?

[TheMatty]

his sig does say EVO FTW
which he will need a helmet for

[josel_atr]

hahaha i have an evo 8.

but i dont know if i can drive it fast enough. it will be my first time on the track...

[Phil@rise]

doesnt matter how fast you need a helmut

[jlenko]

You only NEED a helmet if you have a convertible, or a motorbike, regardless of how fast (or slow) you are. If you have a hardtop, you're ok without a helmet til you hit 13.99 or faster.

If it's his first time out to Mission... I don't expect he'll get that quick on his first day. It takes some people a few tries just to figure out the christmas tree!

[jeff_alexander]

Do you think many people will go?

[Inaii]

Heard from a friend who lives out there that it's snowing in Mission. If the infield is still soaked I doubt many people will show. It'll be all the regular cars and none of the awesome trailered ones.

[eurochevy]

car is still getting the trany's bell houseing replaced..won't be back till next week otherwise i'd be there

[bloodmack]

Rofl, snowing it is not.. weathernetwork.com bud.

And EVO 8 guy will probably do low 14's on his first few runs, AWD, just foor it to 6k rpm and pop the clutch and let the AWD do the work haha.

BTW how is burnout comp at 4 if gates dont open til 4 30?

[jeff_alexander]

I'd trust a friends eyes over the networtk

You will get a warning first, then the 2nd time you'll get booted. Trust me you wont hit less then that unless your really pro with stick.

[civic_rice]

i'll be taking the new shell out tonight for some shakedown passes on street tires. sorta expect a mid 13 tonight, get my slicks on and go for broke. im hoping that the track is preped but i have a feeling wheelspin is going to be big tonight. see you guys there lol look for the civic with fuel pressure gauge on the hood

[Lomac]

It's still getting pretty cold at night right now in the Valley, so expect some traction issues once the sun peaks the trees around the track.

[bloodmack]

As long as the wind doesnt pick up I think it should be fine.
Says sunfall is around 8PM tonight

[hk20000]

You only NEED a helmet if you have a convertible, or a motorbike, regardless of how fast (or slow) you are. If you have a hardtop, you're ok without a helmet til you hit 13.99 or faster.

I thought it's 12.99

my AE can beat 13.99 no one came to ask me to wear a helmet... ;)

[bloodmack]

can? so you didnt actually do it your just assuming? Also, some tracks vary and I think that it used to be 12.99 a couple years back.

[Inaii]

13.99 is when you need a helmet. My brother hit that last year around the end of the season and was asked to wear one from then on. Also, my friend's fb runs around 12.6 and he's been told he needs a helmet as well. So there you go.

And bloodmack it snowed in Coquitlam for a little while this morning. weatheroffice.org bud, weathernetwork.ca is east coast and rarely ever correct for Vancouver's weather.

[Strzelec]

Sweet, not gonna go today, but i'd really wanna do that in the summer.
Is it just drag racing that they have, or do they have another event for an actual track too?

[Raid3n]

they have a road course as well, but never on the same day.

and usually the road coarse events are run by groups like the porsche club and takeda. don't think you can just roll up an pay a fee to go for a few laps...

So true

First time i went to mission i borrowed a helmet from a buddy, but didn't intend to use it beacuse i knew i would be slow.

While passing tech, the guy kept asking...."so, you are going to use the helmet right?" He gave me a total stink eye when I said no and said I would be above 14.

Only got 3 runs in, 1st and 3rd runs went up in wheelspin, 2nd run was the only decent one.

Best of the night was a 14.11 :haha:

[hk20000]

can? so you didnt actually do it your just assuming? Also, some tracks vary and I think that it used to be 12.99 a couple years back.

I did it back in like 2006, and then in 2007....have time slip and ting. but they didn't care about the helmet anyway.

pretty damn sure it's 12.99 man a whole lot of cars off the showroom will beat 13.99 these days. My Galant will smoke a 13.99 as long as I launch it proper...

[Inaii]

* Drivers of cars running 13.99 or quicker are required to wear an NHRA approved Snell 2000 or newer helmet (Note: As of January 1, 2007 the Snell 95 helmet will no longer be legal to use at NHRA / MRP race events). Passengers are allowed in vehicles running 14.00 seconds and slower provided they wear their seatbelt and a Snell approved helmet. All drivers of convertibles regardless of ET must wear a Snell approved helmet.

you'd be pretty wrong then. Taken right off the website.

edited for those of you too lazy to look them up: Street Legals Rules (http://missionraceway.com/street_legals.php)

[jlenko]

I've been racing at Mission for years.. and it's always been 13.99 with a hard top. Go read the website as Inaii pointed out, it's clear as day.

[hk20000]

damn then I need a helmet.

its people like u that leads to lots and lots of broken drivetrains on awd cars.

[jlenko]

So.. who went? Any good times? Or did the snow get in the way? :lol

[civic_rice]

i went out. was a decent night. track is still way to cold for most people to get a decent time. i managed a 13.6@104 on streets, but i wont be doing that again. wheel hop is a bitch

[TheSalesman]

^ what car?
sounds like its got a 12.9 in it.

[jlenko]

At 104 mph... hard to say. What's your 60 foot like?

[TheSalesman]

i ran 12.8 @ 105mph.
1.760ft

[jlenko]

1.7! Not bad at all... Good tires or slicks?

[Inaii]

I'm sad I missed the first night :( but next time!

[TheSalesman]

1.7! Not bad at all... Good tires or slicks?

slicks.
its a heavy prelude NA

[Spaceship_coupe]

i ran 12.8 @ 105mph.
1.760ft

Great job Simon! :thumbsup:

[civic_rice]

nah its got more then that in there....running my bald street tires didnt help....i was only able to cut a 2.2 60 foot...but i had the setup in my 4 door last year and ran a 12.9 with slicks...figure this hatch should run a 12.5 when the weather is better and i drag out the slicks and give er what she has

[DeathChill]

I didn't even get to go. I was just about to the front of the line and then the car crashed and I never got to go.

It was my first time and I was nervous as hell. I was the red Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2.0T. I think I am going back this Friday.

there was a crash at street legals?

[DeathChill]

Well, I didn't get to see it as I was in the line but some crappy car crashed I guess. They had to clean it up and by the time they did it was too cold to go.

[civic_rice]

ya buddies festiva that runs low 12's blue the diff right out of the tranny when he shifted into second. at least he was smart and got off to the side right away. they should shut it down the pass before that cause some hero in a skyline decided to lift a head or somthing just past the 60' and continue down the track the entire way smoking out the track and dropping coolant

[alcoolaid]

So what did those R35's run?

[TheSalesman]

Those R35's run 11's

[bloodmack]

its people like u that leads to lots and lots of broken drivetrains on awd cars.

I would NEVER do it to my own EVO, I don't even own a AWD car atm. I'm just saying. Mabye I should of put /sarcasm to calm your nerves...

[seekerbeta]

you guys that run slicks, if you want better times, run with the Outlaw Class, they always prep the track with gold dust and VHT just before that class, so you are bound to get better traction than running in the middle of 1000 Civics on street tires that tear all that prep up

[Phil@rise]

It was a great time. Our rb31 skyline did 13.5 @ 105mph missing third gear and running .7 bar boost. I ran 15.02 @ 91 mph in the parts hauler dakota with an embarrassing rt of .9 and the first 100 or so feet just wheel spin and hop. (need some shocks and some drag radials) and the bike posted a 11.2 @124 mph.
We'll be going again in a couple of weeks once we put some real tires on the parts hauler and boost up the skyline.

White skyine red rims? or that one that blew up on the inside lane?

[theSpeedSyndicate]

We will be there on the 23rd with our "work in progress" S class.

If anyone would like, I wouldn't mind setting up a small pre-meet at our shop in Burnaby.

[Lowered_Klass]

Might be cool to go next week. The "Big Shwag" is gonna be there judging the burnout contest.

http://missionraceway.com/

He's the guy who hosts the game show 'Pass Time' on the Speed channel. Also you may remember him from Monster Garage.

Hopefully the weather is good!

[Iceman-19]

Holy FUCK there were alot of slow garbage imports out last night. 16-17 second runs, amazing.

Hey, you gotta start somewhere! :D Although it DOES get boring to watch, I'll give you that

[theSpeedSyndicate]

Anyone heading down tonight?
Or are you watching hockey game.

[penner2k]

My buddy was there with his Audi last week. Barely anyone was there so he got in like 6 runs before they shut down at 8...

It was the first time running the car. First thing he did when he got home was order new motor mounts, transmission mount and diff mount. Not even running full boost he couldnt get the car into 3rd without letting off the gas. haha

[bloodmack]

^ you sure about that? i was there and I don't remember seeing any audis..

[penner2k]

White Audi A4 2.0T.. Its a little lowered and has stock rims.
He wouldnt lie about being there since he is my best friend and I was supposed to meet him there but ended up working late.

[TheSalesman]

HOCKEY!!!!

[Lowered_Klass]

I was there, pretty sure I saw Berz there runnin' the green monster.

Was a pretty good turn out concidering the game was on. Plus, on my way out there, there was some pretty dark clouds around Mission, but thankfully the weather stayed nice.

[TheSalesman]

any fast imports?
how about the red 4th gen prelude?

[tofu1413]

need a meet.. i have no idea how to get there.. *google maps* =.=

[hk20000]

Ran it and had an embarrassingly slow 14.8 run with the Galant.

It totally felt weird the whole day until I was trying to go home and a piece of the intake plumbing decided to tell me wassup and came apart. The engine was basically leaking boost the whole time...

If it weren't for that I'm pretty sure I could have done at least a 0.5s faster with its hp rating at RG... but oh well it was not to be.

Oh for people who might be interested in going the entry price is $35.....very expensive indeed.

[barcode]

cheaper than a $495 speeding ticket! plus you race legally!:thumbsup:

[tofu1413]

^ hmm. maybe ill go with you next time! XD i want to try out my ITR on the strip..

[hk20000]

cheaper than a $495 speeding ticket! plus you race legally!:thumbsup:

yeah but back then it was $22 racing the same strip goddamn it. :p

If my cars' parts aren't like unicorn (and that if I am not trying to sell it) I'd try what this guy did. I asked him what's the time he managed 13.2 launching like that and a 1.79 60ft LOL

[Lowered_Klass]

I didn't get to see a lot of the races, because I was helping a friend in the pits. His daughter races jr dragster, and was doing a test & tune that day before the street leagls.

Looked like there were some decent cars that came out. I guess the game didn't scare that many people away. I just wish I had seen more of it (not the game, the races! :lol )

[Phil@rise]

We're in the midst of a major fuel system upgrade in the GTR so we naver made it. Hopefully next friday we'll have it done.
Mmmmmmmmmm Aeromotive A1000 pump insert drool

[xpl0sive]

i'm probably going to head down there friday the 14th... i wanna see if I can find some slicks so i can get into 12's... anyone know if a motorcycle helmet is OK to wear? i read in the rules that if your car is a convertible you have to have a helmet...

Does it have a SNELL or SFI Rating? if not its no good.

[hk20000]

If it was $22 it was a lot more incentive.

$35 every friday for the hardcore fans it's a lot more in the course of the year. It's more than 50% up.

But of course that's if you don't break the car first doing this every week lol.

The car was not at its best there was stupid leak and all sorts of problems. Eventually I'll need my helmet :P

I really dont remember seeing a white audi there, especially one that has so much boost he couldnt keep his AWD down?
