Speedworld drags 2-20-08

Well well well people. Some of the S1 guys finally came up from Tampa to Orlando so I could actually meet up with 'em. Anyone who has been paying attention knows we all have been trying to meet up forever.....JDMD meets, EJ8squad Florida meets, etc......it's been impossible to meet up. Tonight it finally happened and we made the best of it. We meet up and went to Speedworld for the night.

I couldn't run due to bad axles still waiting to be replaced. You might however recognize a car or two from our wonderful EJ8squad. It was a great night for the racers as there were very few cars there. If you've been to the drag strip before, you know that means a bunch of runs for you. In this respect, I apologize for taking a bunch of footage of the same cars. Hope you all like it though.

Here's the footage. Enjoy.

RE: Speedworld drags 2-20-08

You got that right. OSW is not that good on street tires. On slicks it's a different story. People on slicks stick like a mofo there. Keep in mind that the track was just completely overhauled about a month ago so there isn't as much rubber laid down yet. More rubber...more VHT....more sticky. Once more gets down....it will stick again. Unfortunately...all the street tire guys just rip it right back up when they run.

I've heard Bradenton is a tad better though so maybe I'll have to roll down there next time.
