Fall Cruise - Guaging interest...

[turbostang]

yes, It's that early!

I've been contacted by a different track to ask if we'd like to come to their house for the fall cruise. This track's a little longer. ;)

Nothing is carved in stone, no plans are made, nothing is final. I just wanted to get the word out and see who's interested in running a little longer venue.

The "good weekends" are booked through the end of October so we'll be there late late October or possibly early November.

This will not substitute or normal cruise either. We may be there with another club, only time shall tell though.

Comments?

<---- Interested.

[BIGED]

Longer track sounds like fun!!! I vote YES! Plus if this is just in addition of the "normal" fall cruise then I say, the more cruises the merrier.

[SEB]

Brooks I think it would be a great idea explore other tracks & see what they have to offer DFWStangs.

[turbostang]

I just want to make something clear as well.. This is NOT to detract from TXR, I feel a sense of loyalty towards that track and they've catered to our every need EVERY TIME we've been there. For that reason alone, we'll be there over and over.

I'll try to space the events out a little better to keep the interest.

[SSlow01]

Definately game for a longer track :D

On the same page there Brooks, I agree with you 100% ;)

Maybe we can add anohter event. Like a SUMMER CRUISE :eek:

[Clifton]

Yes.

[OMEGA DOOM]

two thumbs up! :cool:

[Juiced4V]

Definately game for a longer track :D

I bet you are..


I'm not sure that I would race in a longer track but I would attend and I'm sure it would be fun regardless....

[JKD]

Hell yeah. Either of those tracks will be closer to me then TXR. :D

I definitely agree with this. TXR rolled out the carpet when others would not, and we should remember that. I would be for trying a different track only if it does not sour relations with TXR.

If it is closer for you it is closer for me. Long track would be cool.

[46Tbird]

3/16 mile? :confused:

[daniel6718]

yep, can always shut down at half track?
make for a funner cruise...could do both

[gravygraber59]

Hopefully I will make this one for the first time, but TXR is a great place.( just a long drive for me.)

[Geronimo]

im in! my kind of track the....1/4 mile!!!! :D

[grape]

i will donate money to go towards track rental................pm me

[SSMAN]

Damn, wish I had over drive. :( I could run it on motor, but I think the bottle would make me shut down prior to the lights.

[propellerhead]

We may be there with another club...
This might ruin it. It won't be "just us" anymore.

[usmcluke]

Depending on what board it is we could make it a board shoot out.

Agreed, but it was not my idea - and I may not have any say in the whole deal.

We actually tried that, I posted a couple of threads on LS1Tech (I think) and very few of them showed.

Once again, I agree. I don't think it will sour relations, but I am going to check with them first.

[Baron]

A summer cruise at night under the lights would be cool, too.

[Red 342 H.O.]

Do the regular events at Kennedale out of loyalty and hold one at Ennis in late October to November.....just not the same weekend as Clash of the Titans (weekend following Thanksgiving in Houston) and not the same weekend as NASCAR is in town which I believe is first weekend in Nov............a mid Nov. date would be great! A longer track is mo betta!

[Labora]

I'd be down for 1/4 mile action. :)

[Amackwantsabeast]

Adding a later cruise might give me more time to get my shit together to drag some ass im down

[musclestang89]

as long as its on Sunday I'm down :D.

You know what has happen is these other tracks are seeing what big of a hit we have when we do our cruise. Since we don't have that many a year is what makes it big. Now that want some of the actions. Its going to take alot for another track to cater our needs to even think about competing against TXR.

[dan03mach]

1/4 mile sounds great to me.. I guess this would be at Ennis.

[forever_frost]

I am interested. Hopefully the Stang will be fixed this summer and be cruise worthy

[Blown03_GT]

I'm in as long as I'm in town. I have plans of being in South Dakota hunting about that same time of year, but the hunting season is longer than one weekend. So I'm sure I can work something out.

[TOMMY]

:cool:

[built2layframe]

i vote yes, I Know Rhonda is Super bummed she wont be able to race in this spring cruise, our due date in Nov 15th so it sounds like she might miss out on the Fall Cruise also, But I really Like The Idea of 1/4 mile track..

[slowbrick]

I will be there ..well maybe. It would be in the middle of deer season

[mutherjuggz]

yes, It's that early!

I'm definitely interested in sponsoring! This time with more organization and time, I can get shirts / hats etc paid for by the company :D

[quikbluewagon]

Sign me up! I haven't been to a 1/4 mile track since I left Maine a little over 2 years ago.

[Nate]

I'm game to make a pass and see if I need a cage.

You can find out this Sunday if you need a cage... :rolleyes:. You already know if you need a cage or not.

1/8th mile is 7.49 I thought and I don't think it will do that with me...

It might go 11.49 which is cage territory 1/4 mile stuff...we'll see if I get the new parts on for that cruise or not...fast 90/90 ported NW TB and Intake with new lid and MAF woot!

They let me run at Kennadale up to a 7.40 & if I ran faster then that I was booted! I just hit the breaks at the end :D

[slownbmta]

I ran 6.20's at Kennedale probably 25 passes and never got booted ;) :confused:


<---putting a cage in this time around though :cool:
