Atco Raceway Test and Tune, Atco NJ, November 18th (Weather Permitting, Taken from the NJ Meet Thread Options

[Fastbird]

I'm going to be at Atco on the 18th shaking down and thrashing on out Celica. No drag radials unfortunately, but hey, run like you run on the street. Looking for a solid 13 second pass at 100+ trap.

Since we're talking about another NJ meet, how about making it a track thing??? Could be fun......

[Daftboy]

Schweet. Here's to hoping the weather holds out.

[playr158]

i'm dyno'ing my car this saturday and hopefully will have a few programs on my laptop to tinker with my ECU
we'll see if that will help break down into the 14.0/13.9 mark

[Fate]

if i come i'll probably show up around 12 (noonish)
oh and the celica which looks like a getta w/4doors , yea thats me

[Fastbird]

I'm going to be there at ten am sharp as the gates open. Look for either the lowered red celica on 18's or the light metallic blue corvette with blackouts, I'm going to be swapping cars all day long I think.

[2slow2nervous]

ill be there in a goldish celica with tinted windows and 17inch black rims...also 3sgte swap

[lagos]

if the weather is good, and i can get out of my other plans i had for that weekend, ill be there. i just need to buy a helmet.

[2slow2nervous]

[Fate]

^ it's like 3 bucks. someone needs to take me for a ride in a 3sgte celica-never experienced it haha.

[y2komar]

Suck. I work....

[lagos]

^ it's like 3 bucks. someone needs to take me for a ride in a 3sgte celica-never experienced it haha.

sure, but i have to warn you . once you get a ride, you wont be able to stop thinking about how you can sell everything you own just to get this motor in your engine bay..

[2slow2nervous]

[Daftboy]

[Fastbird]

Who all is still in for this???? I'm gonig to be there no matter what.

[Culpable04]

I'll go if weather allows I wanna see how slow my car is. I'm hoping to be in the mid 20 s, my christmas present is my turbo set-up which will probably take my 1/4 mile time down to 15.

[Fastbird]

Well, I'm still going in the vette but the celica is OUT. I f***ing plowed a deer tonight on the way home from base. Celi needs a new nose, left fender, and hood now.

[Culpable04]

[Fate]

pending on off work.

[Fastbird]

Gettting ready to leave for breakfast. Track opens at 1000, I'll be there from 1000 until 1400 (2 PM for you non-military types) as we have an appointment with a realtor at 3:30 today also.

[Fate]

i'll be there at 10:00 as well, maybe 10:15.

I don't know if anyone made it, but the wife and I got to the track just before 1000, and it was PACKED. The index and quick 8 classes were on a rain date today and the T&T was also happening, in addition to the event tomorrow. We got in the gate and the tech in line was backed all the way to the gate, so we just turned around and left. Have a realtor coming over today and figured it would be time better spent working on the house.

Hopefully another weekend, when the Celica is NOT banged up.

[playr158]

damn glad i didn't make the drive!

we'll organize a different time when it won't be so crowded

[lagos]

i didnt make it out either. woke up and realized i was broke and couldnt go.

[Fate]

i WAS there. very sad to not see anyone. i peaced and got credited...cuz when i got there a tranny blew and the clean up took 2 hours. then when it started up again, a motor blew after 10 min. i didn't get to race once.
