Headed out to Crandall tonight . . . question.

[Brn N Rubr]

It is a 1/4, right? I've tried to call a fee times to no avail. Does anyone know how much it costs to run Test and Tune?

[jw33]

Thanks. I've already been all over their website. They have no information as to cost. I've also tried to call them and all they have is a voice recording about some of their past and upcoming events.

Anyone actually been there yet?

[FX331]

I'll be there tonight... Shooting for 8.99!!!!

It's a nice track and yes it is 1/4 mile but not sure if they run the 1/4 during tNt.
It probably cost about the same as any of the other tracks to race.

[Brn N Rubr]

Just got off the phone with the track. The lady on the phone was super nice and helpful. $15 to get in, $10 for a tech card, and confirmed it is 1/4 mile.

[FX331]

Beat me to it!!

Waiting for a call back on Fuel type and prices. (No nitrous yet):disappointed:

[Moose Jr]

It's also the only 1/4 mile track open tonight.

25 to test and tune? kinda high. Ennis charges 15 but is never effin open.

Wasent a good night for Mustangs at Crandall last night.... Mine + 2 OTHERS BROKE....Sad part is mine only had 4 1/8 mile passes on the new build before it came off the trailer last night. 1'st pass something in #5 let go and it wasent pretty. Felt like oil got under the tires about the 1000ft mark and took everything I could do to keep it off the wall (Oil was coming out of both banks and blew the dip stick out about 2 inches). Still ran 9.32 @ 141mph lifting at 1000ft. Was really hoping to get that 1'st 8 second run last night. I knew something was up from the start but didnt expect that!!!!

Well, back to the drawing board... Guess its time to find a job!!

Damn, sorry to hear that :frown:

[borntoboogie]

i was tinking of trying to go out there for the first time tonight,to watch. Anyone know if they sell Nitrous yet?

[FX331]

No nitrous yet... They said maybe by next week.

[FX331]

Damn, sorry to hear that :frown:

Thanks...
Scared my wife ALOT... There was so much smoke she couldnt tell if I wrecked or not. Hell, there was sooo much smoke it filled the cockpit to the point I could hardly see the wall by the time I got the car stopped. Lucked out for sure.

this happening is just one more reason I will stick to trackswith a safe shutdown area.... i.e. No trees!!

[jw33]

How was the track? Was it crowded?

[FX331]

[borntoboogie]

anyone go to Crandall last night? If so what kinda crowd did they have?

[Prostock1]

TTT5 was the only time there was a wait in the stagging lanes.....

[Roger]

I went last night to help a friend t-n-t his car. We had no trouble making passes. As said, the only wait was during the TTT5 runs.
It's difficult to compare the crowd there last night. That track has a lot more pit area and bleachers than the local 1/8 mile tracks. They seemed to have a good turnout but it wasn't crowded due to everyone being spreadout.
