ChainHeartMachine Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Sounds like a plan to me! Might be cool to see how well the C7 launch control feature works on a surface that isn't awful lol... I'm scared to actually drive a manual on the dragstrip though... Only ran automatics in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only ran automatics in the past. Racing a manual just takes more coordination than an auto - this is an opportunity to practice. This event is ON my calendar to come out and spectate.

Only ran automatics in the past. I’ve seen manuals run and it’s definitely a great skill. You’ll do great. And……it’s a fun night to learn a car, no competition which is the reason I love Friday night drags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aenigma Posted December 8, 2023 Author Share Posted December 8, 2023 Pretty cool stuff announced today. Wild Horse is now called Firebird once again. tickets are on sale now for Friday night drags Dec 15. Last week’s FND they filled up and closed registration. So I’ve got mine early for the 15th. https://tickets.thefoat.com/TheTrackatWildhorsePass/event-243244/clear_cart-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChainHeartMachine Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 I just saw that yesterday. Firebird is a much better name for a dragstrip in Phoenix. Do they absolutely insist on Snell Helmets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they absolutely insist on Snell Helmets? 14 seconds or quicker yes. And it has to be dated 2015 or later. I know they used to rent them out. I’m not sure now. Firebird was the real name for years when it was cool. You gotta give them credit for marketing by retiring the crappy image and bringing back a cool name.

ChainHeartMachine Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 I just got a Snell 2020 Helmet so I'm good now if I can shift decently enough to do better than 14's lol 2 minutes ago, aenigma said: 14 seconds or quicker yes.

It’ll be a blast! We’re going to be there hopefully by 6. Track goes hot at 7 and it’ll be so crowded by 9 so hoping to get some runs in early. you can always text me when you get close. I’ll put some cones out and save you a spot in the pits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
