I'd love to go to that but I don't have a helmet right now. If I can't get one in the meantime, would it be ok if I borrowed one for a race or two? Oh, and I'm licensed up to 8 sec in the 1/4.

Sounds like fun, I guess I need to stop procrastinating shopping for a helmet. I borrowed all last year :lol:
Maybe I can finally kill my clutch, just hope it gets me home. :eek:

Are you planning on bringing an 8 second car with you?
If not, you might not need a helmut. go to the link above and you can find another link to the regulations for Firebird.
Hope to see you guys there... :seeya

I can bring my SNEL 90 helmet along, if you still need to borrow one. I don't want the lack of a helmet to stop you from racing.

Hey Tony :seeya
Come on out, and you can warm the bleachers with me. I don't run because I already know I'm slow. but that doesn't stop Bryan from picking on me about it... :lol:

Re: {AZ} A.C.E. drag night.... (Desertdawg)
what we need to do is get more people to come out !!
If we can put together a club event, with at least 10 people, then we could possibly go out on the nights that "team firebird" runs and not have to put up with the friday night :bs .
We could then do bracket racing with double elimination. It would mater if you had Glen's 11 second car or even a 17 second car, it would all come down to driver skill and reaction time.
Lets work on this one.....
