Okay who is going to be at Kennadale next

[Avalanche]

Who is going to be at Kennadale next Sunday to race the first race of the TMCC season. I can already hear the excuses. I know that Ron will bring the burgers. Well I hope he does becuase he is old so he has to cook. :rll:

1. Brent
2. Ron
3. Doug ??
4. Dennis
5. Terry
6. Adam

[SpeedyBolt]

Well, I had planned on running there but I forgot that I have a three day race weekend planned for our IMCA cicle track car!
Sorry, maybe I can make the next one!

[03LightningRocks]

First...I am not going t be bringing burgers...:cool: .

Second....Howard is on call next Sunday, so it would be just this side of screwed up if he got a call and had to cruise 60 miles to get there.

Third...I will be there. I have to practice my lights. After the Lights I cut this weekend...I need the practice, believe me :vomit: .

Forth...I think Dennis will be there, but I am not 100% on this.

Fith...how do you spell fith...that doesn't look right to me.

Sixth...Michael got lucky a couple races last year and now he thinks he is some kind of Fast and Furious type, money only racer. But he is still scared to come out there and face the man...:D .

Seventh....I could have sworn Andy told me he was going, but maybe not, he is turning a bit Pink too.

[Avalanche]

Okay so we have two for sure anymore? Come on folks if you don't make anymore races atleast lets make a good apperance on the first one. IT is only 20 bucks and most of you spend that in beer in two hours.

Okay so no burgers but lots of stories from Florida I am sure. :rll:

[00Bolt]

fifth i think.... :confused:

[Sandman]

Seventh....I could have sworn Andy told me he was going, but maybe not, he is turning a bit Pink too.

Hmmm... I could have sworn you told me that you were bringing the burgers.:confused:

[Avalanche]

I vote Uncle brings the burgers. Yea thats it. :eek2:

[StormShadow]

I can't make it this time. :hammer:

Besides, I'm converting my truck into the 1%er setup. :evil

[03LightningRocks]

Awe....:Bullshit . Bring your young lazy arse out to the track. WTF guys. It's race season...let's fricking raceknana .

[03LightningRocks]

Mike...Moral support is always welcome...hope to see you there...:banana: .


Rocks:postwhore

[FRDRCING]

I will be out there not sure what time. Sometime around 12 or 1.

[Sandman]

I may try to weasel out there. My wife's Bday is Monday, so she may tell me that it is her weekend.

[03LightningRocks]

Tell her your going to take her to the track to celebrate:cool: ...and bring her with you.

If your goin to be there, I can bring your Auto Tap. If you want it sooner, call me sometime after 10 AM tommorrow. I'll PM my phone number to you.


Rocks:d

[Avalanche]

Cool looks like we might have a little turn out after all. It would be good see everyone again. Uncle bring my thing to the track do not worry about bringing it to the house. Terry it would be good to see ya at the track also.

[03LightningRocks]

Terry told me last night that he thought he could go. It is this coming Sunday..Right?

I got your message Brent...consider this your return call...LOL. I will bring it. Andy...I will call you later on today...I really feel like sh!t right now. The long trip screwed by my time clock. I slept 2 hours yesterday and then was up until four this morning...:hammer: .

I can bring the Auto Tap to you some time tommorrow...I will check with my boss to see what time he says I can go out and play...:D . I can meet you anywhere or I can bring it to your place of business....either works for me.

[SpeedyBolt]

I don't know if were going to run the three day weekend or not. We will just have to see if we break anything Friday or keep it all in shape! Friday is the first race of the season!

[Avalanche]

That is cool Ron, Yes it is this Sunday and the gates open at 9:00 a.m plan on time trials starting around 10 or so. I will be there around 8:15 or 8:30 to get us a good spot maybe. The damn extreme corvette club always takes the whole damn fence. Ron do you prefer to be closer to the snack bar or the score board?

Seeing as how I don't do track food, the scoreboard will be good. Either way...I usually shoot for away from the crowd. The women are always bugging me for an autographed picture. You probably saw the picture at hooters. That's what happens every time I reject them:cool: .

[Sixpipes]

I should be good for Sunday. :cool:

[Silver_2000]

Ill try to come out to spectate ... Assuming I dont have to work

Never know when you company is in the middle of hiring new CEO and laying off another 20% ...

Damn, will your company ever stabilize?!?! I will try to make it out to see my peeps run. Will anyone buy race fuel or do I need to get anymore?? Any clear 5gal race cans? $25 with spout?

I'm always good for 10gallons Terry.

[SpeedyBolt]

Well, I'm out agian! Looks like the weather is going to be nice and the wifey said we have to move to our other house if I wasn't doing the three day race weekend w/ the dirt car! Maybe I can sneek out. LOL I'll hurt my back or something so I have an excuse to come up there with y'all!

[SpeedyBolt]

...I am going to try for the sixes:D in the eighth.


Ron, They may get pissy with you about those times and no cage! I know the last time I was up there they were telling everybody that was running 7.50's or better (I think thats what it was) that they had to have a cage next time or they wouldn;t let them race!

I guess you could bust off one sub 7 second run then "de-tune" the beast!

[Avalanche]

Okay this is what I have so far for Sunday.

1. Brent
2. Ron
3. Doug ??
4. Dennis
5. Terry
6. Adam

U sure are excited about this, do you know something we don't?:confused:

[Avalanche]

U sure are excited about this, do you know something we don't?:confused:


Hell yea I am excited. A chance to go out and beat your arse down the track. :D

I really like to race and some of us do not have to do it for money. :D

[StormShadow]

A chance

Key words.

[True Blue Aggie]

This is what I said...


I'll make it out to the Kennedale - Ennis - Redline events, if I am not racing somewhere else, but this year I am looking for the money events to run. Even if it is for $100 to win, that is better than nothing at all.

So with that in mind, I will race anywhere I can, but there is a priority right now to somewhat limit myself. I could race every weekend, but then I would be divorced, and I kinda like my wife and hope she keeps me around. I also am trying to race for money because this hobby would be even better if it were able to at least pay for itself....not likely but a man can try.

And in conclusion, no one with a Lightning needs to race another Lightning until it is absolutely the last possible round to do so. TMCCC is about points for the club, not the person specifically (unless you plan on racing every race). So trying to take another Lightning out is a big :nono:.

:tu:

[Sixpipes]

Just got in from Kennedale. Scott and Michael were still racing when I left. I got to the finals of Street Muscle and lost to Ken Cryder on a red light. I drove over the brakes and that was it. I think I'm going to do OK with ole Wimpy (black 95). Big crowd today and hated to leave before the event was done, but I missed dinner as it was (not popular around my house). :cool:

[03LightningRocks]

Thanks for the update Dennis. Good job....:beer:

[f150freak]

I don't know if Michael went home with anything but I came home with 2 things. A plaque for placing 3rd in the Super Muscle class and a new best of 8.49 @ 81.74 MPH.http://www.talonclub.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrinflip.gif All in all it was a good day, excpet fot the slight sun burn I got.

Congrats on your new PB and your 3rd place finish. Just curious, did you ever figure out if that '60 was a fluke? What other '60's did you cut?

BTW the sunburn will get worse. I wasn't out there very long and I have a nice red glow.

Yeah, the first was a fluke, as much as I wish it wasn't. After the time trials I pulled consistant 60' times in the 1.90s, ranging anywhere from 1.97-1.93.

[03LightningRocks]

It was great seeing everyone again. We really need to do this more often. There are some pretty good folks in this club. Y'all are fun to hang with.

Congrats Scott on the new best. Be sure and post it over in the times list. Don't feel too bad about the fluke slip, Tim has one with a 1.2x sixty and I believe his showed an 11.5x....:nana2 .


Rocks:beer: :beer: :beer:

[True Blue Aggie]

Congrats Scott :tu:. You really did make a good run for the title today. Super Muscle had something like 35-40 cars total, so to make it all the way to third is something.....

I ended up with nuthin....First round loss in King Muscle, 2nd round loss in Race of Champions.

Oh yeah....Dennis made it to the finals. I would make a big deal out of this also, but Dennis almost always makes it to the finals...:beer:. Once again, Dennis is the man!

[Mark #2]

Agree great to see everyone again. Dennis is still the man. I am tired of losing by .00 something seconds, I guess I just suck at this, maybe time to go back to the road race stuff, I used to be pretty good. Doug, great pictures...see burn outs:D

Damn I wish I would have gone! We decided to do two out of the three race days this weekend. Good news is the car ran great and we didn't break anything and only got two dents in the car!
Pretty impressive being that there were 25 cars on the track at once! (The track is only 1/4 mile long circle track!)

[PoorSvtman]

After yesterdays accident and waking up this morning with a flat that wouldnt hold air i decided it was probly best i take it easy. But i did go to kennedale tonight. My slicks are worn out and could hook up very well. I ran a 8.3 and 8.4s. My g/f even busted out a 8.4 driving my truck... :d knana

[L8 APEX]

Great to see the crew again at the season opener:tu: . Dennnis is a class act as ususal lending the less wise youth his jacket all day:bows Thanks! I got a sun burned head with a splash of wind burn to go with it:hammer: . I noticed some rusty folks a racin':nono: Practice those reactions:D . I caught Ron savoring the track food he swore off on this post;) . Rob revved his truck for all to hear, Jake made an appearance. It was a good day, now I will be up until 2am doing stuff I neglected while at the track:rolleyes:

Hey Rocks,
I agree,Good to see everyone I had not seen since Lfest. I see Terry,Rob ,Jeff,Steve-O, JC and others in Tarrant County quite often. It would be REALLY good if some of the people we have never seen @ ANY event show up sometimes,not all the time ,just sometime and earn that association you think you have with TALON,not just a million posts that most of the time means dilly squat. Come on its getting warm.Come introduce yourself. No excuses for Tarrant,Dallas,Collins,and Denton Counties Supporting Members/ Registered Users. Its not too far to drive. :nono:
