    Post 5/31 - Flashlight Drags Meetups and Races

    I think it would be nice if any members from the forum wanted to meetup and hangout as a group when the FLDs start back up. I'm a loser and always end up standing around by myself and no one to talk to LOL.

    Anyway, I know it's still a bit early, but perhaps we can use this thread to capture all that want to attend and maybe meet up and park by each other and stuff. This can serve two purposes:

    1) It's easier for us to compare setups and go out for runs

    2) Any others wanting to race, we could pick from our forum's cars to find the best match up

    Sorry, it's winter time and I just want to talk cars haha.

    Without further ado, I've scanned our previous shit talking thread and put together a list of members that have expressed interest:

    ERR0RMACR0 (GT-R)
    Ruthless (Turbo Terminator)
    GMKillr (NA Z06)
    Went9s (Crazy Fox lol, don't know if it's boosted or on spray)
    Amwells1 (NA C6?)
    Tom (Turbo Fiero)
    JuiceMan86 (86 Mustang GT)
    JeffreyCole (1G DSM)
    Seer (2015 Mustang GT - Potentially boosted by the first FLDs)
    TheDak (GT-R)
    RedRocketVette (Chevette LS Turbo)
    SlowSix (Mustang V6 Turbo)
    Dewayne (1G DSM)
    AdamantiumSilvr (2000 Mustang GT?)
    MGTF289 (?)
    SK360 (C6 Vette)

    Within our group races:
    ERR0RMACR0 vs. Ruthless (possibly delayed until a later FLD)
    ERR0RMACR0 vs. Went9s
    GMKillr vs. Amwells1
    JeffreyCole vs. SlowSix
    JeffreyCole vs. Dewayne - 1G DSM Battle

    Once we get closer to May, we could use this thread to set up a meeting time and location or whatever else. The other races discussed in the shit talking thread were track races at PRP, so I didn't include those (was thinking of making a new thread for that event--April 18th for those interested!). Side note: I want to see some DSM vs. Fiero action lol. Would that be a good race or no?

    The one on May 31st is in Waynesburg--most of them are held there. I think a couple times a year they also hold them at Beaver Run.

    The PVGP has the FLD's at PittRace in July. It's a great day, because they have vintage racing from 8am-5pm. The FLD's are just icing on the cake!

    Honestly if you want to race and hook up head to Waynesburg all the fast cars show up there. Old Beaver run is just a down hill and then back straight on their road track. It's spin fest. It's a good time but I have to turn my car down so my guess is that most of them are.

    ERR0RMACR0 don't put me down for runs that early. It's further out then I thought, currently down to the block and I know its going to take some time to get it back together. This could take a while.

    I'll definitely be there, and will be racing, but I am sure that the car will be on a less than optimal tune, due to the limited time I will have to dial it in on the new setup, but I will use that time to help dial it in better.

    With that said, I will run just about anyone just for fun. I don't give a damn if I lose or not.

    The Fiero is going to be a lot faster than my car this year on his setup.

    Most cars on here will probably be faster than me on straight pump gas, and e85 is out of the question here, so it will have to wait till I get a meth injection setup before I can put it "on kill".

    Most DSM guys won't spend the kind of coin on these bolt on turbos anymore, so data is limited in the DSM application. On evos they have done over 700awhp on e85, but they have a better hot side, so I really don't know what to expect. Should be interesting.

    I know I'm not on the list but I'll be there early and help with the set up. The little Yellow car is easy to find. Look me up

    I ordered my supercharger on Feb 23. So should be here within a week or so. So I should have it on and tuned before this date.

    We will keep our fingers crossed that you don't blow this one up and have to trade it in.

    Actually I don't want anything to do with it. Because when I beat someone, there will be nothing but belly aching and crying that I had an unfair advantage, or my car wasn't a certain color, or it isn't NA, or it had this particular mod, or I ran a certain tire type. No one runs what they brung anymore, and theres always some bitching and complaining. I'm just going to race myself this year. If you happen to be in the next lane and cross the line before me, kudos to you and good job.

    As long as your car isn't dark grey with black tires I don't see what the problem would be.
