Oh I know how - Be the first one on the track with a POS bus and blow the trans and pour 50 year old trans oil on the track with Jim staging next and then you can beat him! Lol! J/k

Flashback 2012

Well, I'd love to add to this thread with a car I'd actually be driving, but my 99 golf 2.0 and slipping clutch wouldn't win vs. a snail

Hey Jim,

If there is room for another 68 Beetle at the track, there's a 50/50 chance I'll be able to race.

I'm just trying to meet a deadline at work, and then hopefully get away from Calgary by Thursday night in time to get to Mission on Friday...

Richard Kuczko · « **Reply #9 on:** August 18, 2013, 07:59:09 PM »

What is the time cutoff to race if I show on Friday

jim martin · « **Reply #10 on:** August 18, 2013, 08:10:08 PM »

Hi Neal , that would be great .if you make it i will buy you a mission raceway dinner .
for the test and tune gates open at 8.00 am and you can pay for the test and tune and evenning drags in 1 shot .
For the test and tune you can arrive any time between 8 am and say 2:pm track usally stops the test and tune between 3:30 -4:00
to see if they have space e-mail direct to rentals@missionraceway.com and let them know you want to come for the friday 23rd test and tune
and they will get back to you within 24 hrs

if you are coming to the evenning drags gates open at 4:00 pm and racing starts around 5 ish.
evenning drags is limited to the first 250 cars .it hasnt been busy at all so i would think as long as your there by 5:30 pushing to 6 you should be ok .but hey ive been wrong before so best come as early as possible .
i will be in early /all day and will work on saving some vw area for us .

jim martin · « **Reply #11 on:** August 20, 2013, 08:01:03 PM »

jim, you should know by now i wear a ladies petite...it's all about the midriff!

neil, bring your car, you'll make it in time and have a load of fun (plus a romantic mission raceway dinner with jim is something you definately want to be a part of...but careful, he gets mighty frisky after a basket of chicken strips...)!

any other DVKK'ers gonna race? dave? gavin? jag, you gonna kick some SMC ass?

how about the SGVWA crew (besides brian & rob)...lotsa new members in that club...they gotta earn their keep, RIGHT!

how about the okanagan folks...? i heard chatter in another thread about racing buses...that would be souper rad!!

anyone else...you know it's going to be alot of fun!!! lets do it!!

Hansk · « **Reply #13 on:** August 21, 2013, 12:40:23 AM »

I know of two young guys that just got their "N"s and they are itching to make their very first passes down the track and in air cooled cars of course . Any other new drivers going to run?

Stephan Schmidt · « **Reply #14 on:** August 21, 2013, 05:00:25 AM »

My brother is going to make some passes in his car - hoping for a 13 sec pass or 100 mph+ on street tires his second time out! Basically still a newbie, but a much better driver than my sleepy head at the line

rekka · « **Reply #15 on:** August 21, 2013, 09:04:58 AM »

I'd love to represent the Okanagan for racing but my motor is brand new. I'm breaking it in on the drove down, so I'll have to wait until next year. I did just find an old timing slip from racing my bay panel in RWYB at Bug Jam in the UK 20 years ago. A solid 23 second quarter. Wow.

owdlvr · « **Reply #16 on:** August 21, 2013, 09:08:39 AM »

Not sure if I'm going to bring the Single Cab and race SMC, or bring the rally beetle and find out how ~~fast~~ slow it is down the quarter mile. I just broke in a new cam & bearings yesterday, so racing it probably isn't the smartest decision...

Jeremy · « **Reply #17 on:** August 21, 2013, 11:01:11 AM »

I'm in. SMC baby. Hoping to to improve on my 1.5 sec reaction times. 2nd place last year. Gunning for 1st this year!!!

Richard Kuczko · « **Reply #18 on:** August 21, 2013, 11:32:11 AM »

If I make it in time which I should I will be racing (yeah racing more like driving). My 69 vw bus tiptop Eh it will be fun to try and get a 16sec with a stock 1600cc single port

Shane · « **Reply #19 on:** August 21, 2013, 12:09:10 PM »

I'll be there in my street car, any one have some slicks on Porsche wheel pattern rims? If not street tires it is.
I will also have Jason Lauffer from VW Paradise flying to make some test hits on my newly acquired race car...A little test and tune

VERY cool Shane!

notorious B.U.G. · « **Reply #21 on:** August 21, 2013, 04:24:17 PM »

So I'v only got 36 HP (probably more like 30) Are there any cars coming out that are stock like that? I'm only interested in all out drag racing none of this lame bracket racing where you don't try to go as fast as your car can go!

We'd be a good match, I usually run low 13's at just over 100 MPH, with the odd 12.8-12.9 ET on the few days that I actually shift the gears properly...LOL!

jim martin · « **Reply #24 on:** August 21, 2013, 09:21:34 PM »

Now we're getting somewhere

Sounds like its going to be a great start to the weekend

burnout,stage,yellow,yellow,yellow ,green light ,pedal to the floor and dump the clutch,hold on .. 1st gear grrrrrrrrrrr shift 2nd gear grrrrrrrrrr shift 3rd gear grrrrrrrrrrrr shift 4th gear grrrrrrrrrrrrr.......made it ,collect time slip and grin ear to ear

red snapper · « **Reply #25 on:** August 21, 2013, 10:53:23 PM »

I'm in. Didnt think think I would get the car done on time. Thanks to Terry H. for his time today it looks like 11's for this Friday! I hope.

silas · « **Reply #26 on:** August 21, 2013, 11:13:47 PM »

hans...good for those guys! what a great way to get hooked on the 1/4! if either of them have a stocker, send them to the SMC!!

dave (owdlvr)...as much as i like the rally car, i believe i read in your buyers agreement that one of the stipulations of the sale was that the previous owners demand that you take the single cab to the races! so you're bound by law to race the truck!!

jeremy...drop that rt, and aim for a sub 20 second 100kmh+ pass and you're golden!!

richard kuczko & notrious B.U.G...the Stock Motor Challenge is the class you want to be in. lots of loot to be won and lots of good 'ole heads up pedal to the metal racing!! check the link below...

On slicks though right? Not 15 year old hard pirelli's

I'll let Jon know! He floats around on this site from time to time!
