Hi Blake :cheers

[bababuschka]

Any suggestions for a good camping spot for a trailer? Looking more for a party crowd than the family vacation setting.

[oldskoolstang]

I'm going to try and make this event to spectate. Hopefully, I'm around and can make it. It looks like a good time and a chance to see some really fast cars airing it out....

there will be numerous 200mph plus capable cars at this event

[oldskoolstang]

I'm planning on being there, but with me seeking new employment opportunities......I can't even say what state I will be living in in September.....such is life.

Not sure about a trailer, but the days inn last year was the party spot.

[bababuschka]

I might have to check the Days INN out, I just wanna be able to have a few beers and not get told to quiet down because quiet hours are from 2000-0800

[RED04Z06]

Signed up for Saturday

[RoadconeTuning]

I'll probably head down there this year... last year we intended to go and ended up driving mountain roads in ga instead haha

[FRDnemesis]

Then Days Inn it is for us! 268 miles from Charleston, not too bad. CANNOT wait!!!

[FRDnemesis]

Does anyone from Charleston still plan on going?

[AKCobra]

Do you have the address? Can't find it on the Days Inn site.

[UnaBomber]

We ended up renting a badass 4 bedroom house for less than the cost of a hotel. 2 nights was like 350 total.

I found it on vrbo.com. Just search for Clayton ga, there are a ton of cool rental houses a available for a decent price

I'm liking coming down to hang out for the day

Yea, if you have enough peeps, def a better deal. I found the days inn :D

Are you trailering your car and bringing your own E, or are there plenty of stations down that way that have it?

It's all a moot point if I cannot find another house sitter. Worthless FKn teenagers :rolleyes:

im going to drive it. Too many fun mountain roads up that way not to drive it

I would be very very surprised if you can find pump e85 up there. e85 fuelfinder says the closest pump is 80miles away. Ill be running on either q16 or vpImport, not sure yet. I know VP will be there so they can probably hook you up with e85 if you dont want to bring it

[UnaBomber]

I'll bring my air mattress.

you are more than welcome to stay with us man. Its just me and 2 or 3 others at this point and the house seems pretty cool

who all are you coming up with?

Will she be done by the race? At least it has a back window...lol.. I actually felt really bad when that happened.

I would say we should get a race in, but you will smoke me..

This is the part I hate about using E85

I'm not familiar with those other two fuels and willing to be I could not use them without recal'ing the tune. Looking forward to a great time up there regardless of bringing my car or not!!!

its looking like my tuner is going to have 2 fresh 55 gallon drums of e85 for the weekend so im sure we can work something out

edit: hes going to fill me a drum from him local pump. 3.09 a gallon and 82% ethanol. How much do you think you will need for the weekend?

[UnaBomber]

yup. she will be done for a private dragstrip rental the wednesday before the event for some shakedown passes.

Im shooting for 195+ on the new build so hopefully i can pull it off. Car should be making right around 1200 at the wheels on e85

[AKCobra]

I'm liking coming down to hang out for the day

That's what I'm doing, just don't know if I'm gonna go Saturday or Sunday. I'd go both days but I've got too much stuff to get done around the house.

if you are coming for only 1 day i would recommend saturday

http://www.vrbo.com/150382

Kidding. I'm doing RR Sept. 21-22 with PCA and don't have enough coupons for both... :boohoo:

Yeah I was leaning towards Saturday.

With that kind of power, you should be right around that speed. I wouldn't be surprised to see 200. This event is a little smoother than carrabelle in my opinion with a much longer shut down area. The only issue is its a little higher in elevation. I'm hoping for 165 with "only" having 700hp.

I think my wife and I just decided to take the Tahoe instead. I definitely appreciate the offer.

Love the personalized plate! We may be leaving from Bluffton Friday if my daughter stays with her grand parents that weekend.

[FRDnemesis]

Last night my oldest just changed the weekend she wants to have her "Sweet 16" birthday party :gg: Looks like we are not going to Georgia........................

If it wasn't her 16th, I'd of told her too effin' bad, but it is special to her......

At least next time I will be able to participate. I hope a lot of good footage gets taken.

[Carlrx7]

BOOOOOO!!!

anyone want to bring a base model z51 trans back?

-jeff


Flex fuel kit!! Sensor gets installed in the fuel line and changes the fueling and spark depending on the ratio of ethanol/gasoline

[Carlrx7]

NE one going that wants to get paid 50 bucks for meeting a vendor there and bringing back a corvette trans?

[AKCobra]

Will it fit in the trunk of my Cobra? Wait, you're all the way down by the coast huh? I'm up in Greer... I could atleast get it this far for you or meet you halfways or something if nobody else can do it.

Hey thanks! It would fit, and that would be awesome and save me some driving, but i just got a call saying now vengeance can't bring the trans. bastards

Thanks anyways though!!

-Carl

[AKCobra]

Damn, that sucks.

[viperkris]

well, another great 1/2 mile event in the books. Fastest car for the weekend was a GTR @ 203, N/A was a corvette @ 169, and 4 door was a Audi @ 163. For myself, I put down 154 in the viper. I was hoping for 160, but it is what it is. If there is anyone on here that was there racing, I was the guy handing out the speed slips at the finish line. When next years events are announced, I will make a post so people can adjust their schedules as needed.

[AKCobra]

I'm definately gonna enter next year, I had a good time just spectating. I got lots of vids, what Viper is yours?

[viperkris]

I have the red and white striped viper that was parked next to the timing tent at the finish line. I only ran a couple times because I was working the event and its not really fair to the participants to hold them up for employee runs (even though all the employees love cars and most of us have fast cars). I just ran my friends mustang (we have a rivalry) and the 09 red/black ACR viper.

I hope to see you next year. Words and video just don't give the event justice. You really have to be there.

[AKCobra]

Ahh ok, you drove right in front of me as I was sitting on the curb eating a BBQ sandwich. I think I got a video & a pic or two of your car.

[UnaBomber]

Awesome event as always. Blake told me I was the only person to race in all 3 events is year. Hope I can be lucky enough to do the same next year

[AKCobra]

This one?

[viperkris]

yep, that's my car. Here is a pretty sweet picture my buddy Trent took with me racing a 09 viper ACR.

[RoadconeTuning]

1/2 mile seems like the place you would take the extra wing off the car. that mighta been your 160 right there.

[snakeplissken]

Kris, I hope you didn't pay VCA dues. It's on life support.

[viperkris]

I paid past year, but not anymore.

[snakeplissken]

Good. If you haven't seen it, check the thread on Viper Alley.

Did you recycle the run flats?

[viperkris]

Yeah, I have kinda been following all the crap with vca.

I still have the run flats in my garage. I'm not sure what I will do with them. The fronts are almost new, so might throw them on eBay or something. The rears are goin to be recycled or made into a cool garage shelf or something.
