A giant beer can is falling on Mr. Pate's head right now.

[DeirdrePate]

No really....
Just wanted to know how many people would be interested in a drag race day again that tnspeed did like last two years.

When I asked David he's not to sure...just wanted to know if we could rally support to get one going again this year..I have had fun at them thought it would be nice.

We'd like to do it. I'll try to put a call in to Beech Bend this week and see if they have any Fall slots open still.

[Chandler]

That would really suck if we didnt have one this year. I look forward to it every year.

If this doesn't happen, we'll find a vacant stretch of road in Davidson Co. and post about it on the internets for weeks ahead of time, then meet up and race 700hp/torkz cars into telephone poles while Mike videocams it.

Cool?

We better have it this year! I'm just now getting the Cobra ready! Me & JB will be there!

[2burnouts]

whats it cost to rent out the track at bg? if its full would you consider a diff track, just thowing this out there. i believe clarksville tune nights are wed and drags are fri night and circle track is sat night which leaves that track open on sat's.

it's an eighth mile too short. we could do down and backs though

Honestly I have thought about mixing things up a little and maybe doing this at an 1/8th mile track this time just to be different. Beech Bend is an awesome facility (normally) but we have consistently catered to the 1/4 mile crowd every time we've done this.

Better than nothin', but the 1/4 ownz. I would have to vote Union Hill if we went 1/8th. New surface, proximity to majority of tnspeeders, delicious nacho cheese blend, etc

Their nacho cheese is made completely of hydrogenated pig innards. You've been duped.

I'd really like to do the 1/4 since I've never even ran mine anywhere but the 1/8. But if we did the 1/8 I'll vote for the Hill also. That's on my home turf, y0.

[MikeW]

Ok lloyd can run the hill twice and combine the times to get his 1/4.


Seems that BG is always a good turn out.. but I know that their fees have gone through the roof. Either location I will be there and the SVTOA crew will bring more food this time :cheers:

I look forward to it. I hope its a BG but the hill is fine too. BG>Hill

We've also considered renting the Superspeedway and putting on a road-course event/car show like the Music City Mustang Club did last fall. From what I understand, the cost isn't much more than it would be to rent out beech bend.

Jason, Moody and some others participated in the event, I believe, so let us know if you would want to do something like that this year versus the drag race thing.

[Tungsten]

I'd forgotten about the open track idea. That sounds a lot better to me.

[DeirdrePate]

Didn' think about that as an option that might be cool...but wouldn't it be more money to participate?

I know when MCMC does it we've paid 135 per car to run for the day.

[MikeW]

NSS would be nice for sure. When SVTOA had their event there it was 11,500 for a two day event. AV8 last year was more than that so the entry fees will have to be in the $300 per range.

The superspeedway would be awesome, but I don't think our turnout would be as good as a drag race. Plus we wouldn't be able to really race at the speedway.

[DeirdrePate]

love ya all but if its that expensive we won't be able to do it :(

[393Bird]

I Like the Idea of doing it at the Hill. Closer, and being a old fart, am more comfortable keeping this under control at 1/8 mile speeds than at 1/4 speeds. I may look into getting Depends to sponsor me. :)

[DeirdrePate]

i prefer BG....but will be okay with the hill.
just can't swing the speedway if its 300 bucks would almost be our house payment if both Kev and I ran . And I am sure he would be upset if I ran and he didn't :lol::-p

[speedy]

I vote the Hill. My truck is not areodynamic enough for the 1/4. I end up lifting at about the 1000 foot mark.

[KREaton423]

Where ever you guys decide to have it, I'll be there for sure this year. Last year I was working every weekend. If you decide to do the drag race thing I'll come and watch, but if you do a road coarse event I'll participate, but I'm cool with which ever.

Don't think I can change the poll you waffler....are you related to clinton?????

[SupaRice]

I vote NSS, if we can do road course! As I'm out on drag racing.

[2burnouts]

well road corse we require me to crash my track car into someones high dollar supra,gt500,z06 im up for draggin, i have a few grudge matches id like to make..ive never raced a evo and i believe theres more draggers here than road corse guys .but i do want a tns day id love to meet some of the guys that has helped me with my projects and who we argue with

[SWIFT]

Road coarse would be awesome too!

[DeirdrePate]

Maybe we could look into doing double dutch with another group like svtoa and MCMC for road course this year just an idea?????

[KREaton423]

That sounds like a good idea to me. I know alot of guys off of here go to any track day they can no matter who is putting it on. I hope to go to as many as i can afford this year.

[chrisrx7]

what about auto x in the oval at BB??? Just a thought.

I emailed Dallas to see if we can change the date to the 6th. It just wouldn't be Tennesspeed Day without the founder.:cool:

Do we have that big of an 1/8th mile constituency on this board? I can really only think of one or two people who have 1/8th only cars.

Let's do it on a dirt track and give everyone the chance to wad their junk up!

What is the chance that this could happen? Seriously, I wouldn't mind a little cone dodging. I just don't know what liability issues would be involved if any. I would be more than willing to come up early to help get things set up.

doubt BB would let us do that it many liability issues for oval and you would probably need competition lic.

[SBrian2]

The oval at BB is too small for autoX and the walls would make it painful if you lost control. There will be plenty of events at the NSS w/ the TRSCCA if you need to satisfy your autoX fix.

Oh, i plan on being very active this year in local autox. I will probly have a lot of questions when it gets a little closer.

I have never been to BB so I didn't know about the size issue.

I used to work at the track there when I first moved to BG and I can recall several times that there was some cone dodging in the infield (Vettes and Fbodys). They set up the course and did their own timing and judging... I am just saying. I know of a dozen or so people that would come from BG if there was auto x. I will gladly show up early to set up or help with timing or course judging or whatever.
