  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Well before the motor rebuild, the previous owner of my car had that as his average times. I have never been down the track but would love to try.

    The likelihood of me trailering the car down is getting higher. Just need to do a few tune ups first and get some miles on her.
    Besides nothing leaking, what else is needed for tech inspection

    ^^^What Taulb said!!^^^

    Pack that thing up and come on down Ryan!

    As far as tech goes on a street car, it's pretty straightforward. Seat belts, all lug nuts, all windows, and some tech guys are pretty strict on the double throttle return spring thing. Aside from that, consult the nhra rule book.

    No they don't tech, for reelz. Some classes peer tech but none by the track officials

    Well all be da#@&*..... That's kinda surprising. And here I was going to test mount my new wheels that drag radials are going on, and was concerned I didn't have open lug nuts to fit them so they could see the studs are long enough. Guess I don't have to worry about that anymore!

    Are you still gonna run (as in coordinate) GSR this year Ethan?
