Orlando "Fastest Street Car Shootout" 07
Well.....Things started off differently this year....In the past the pre-race Party was at the Race Rock Cafe in Orlando and it featured a good percentage of the cars that would actually be Racing during the weekend.......Since the Race Rock had been Sold....they moved the Party to a "Hooters" that is in the General area of the Drag Strip....the Parking Lot at "Hooters" was about 1/4 the size of the Race Rock Parking lot....there were only a Handful of true race cars there and the others were the Local street Machine "Guy's"......It rained for a while today while we were at Downtown Disney and the rest of the weekend has a 60% chance of rain.......Steve, I think you did "Good" by not bringing your Car this year as the weather will control the Racing.....if there is any...I've got my Fingers Crossed....But?????
Here are some pic's from tonight and Hopefully I'll have a lot more to post as the Weekend progresses http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...7/DSC07968.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...7/DSC07969.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...7/DSC07970.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...7/DSC07972.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...7/DSC07971.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...7/DSC07975.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...7/DSC07976.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...7/DSC07977.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...7/DSC07978.jpg Ken |

Re: Orlando "Fastest Street Car Shootout" 07
This Picture was taken from the "Very" end of the track at the Last turnoff.....Amazing......there wasn't a empty parking space in the pits except for the open spot on the end that you can see......Later that was filled also and when I left around 5:00, there were a couple of tractor trailer rigs trying to get in...but there wasn't any spaces left........It's amazing, with the weather and all that.....The amount of Cars that show up.......I do have to say that the Improvements to the property were very noticeable......Concrete Barriers down the track, New Stands, WashRooms Painted and remodeled, and a Zamboni Type Track Cleaner that was put into use after a Trans Explosion right on the Starting line....It made short work of the cleanup......Pic's to Follow.........More

Looks like there are a lot of awesome cars there. What are the rules of this "shootout"? What do these cars have to do to be concidered street cars?

Chuck Samuels took over #1 with a 6.54
http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...y/DSC08092.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...y/DSC08093.jpg Then Vinnie Bundano came along and ran a 6.42 for the #1 spot.....Ran like it was on a string http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...y/DSC08094.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...y/DSC08095.jpg Spiro Pappas......Got loose off the line and had to shut it down http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...y/DSC08104.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...y/DSC08105.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...y/DSC08106.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...y/DSC08107.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...y/DSC08111.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...y/DSC08112.jpg How's this Hairdo.....LOL http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...y/DSC08114.jpg Probably not going to go to the Track Tomorrow as she has plans.....so Mike will have to pick it up from here....As I remember there was a couple of 10 1/2" cars in the 6's.......A couple of Heavy street cars were in the 7's The "Magic" behind the Success of Orlando is the Simplicity of the Rules......Weight (dependant upon Power Adders) and Tire Size.......4 Classes.......Simple and Successful.........If you got it....."Bring It".....Last Man Standing Wins.........

Re: Orlando "Fastest Street Car Shootout" 07
GREAT pictures! If I had a nickel for everytime I said "Holy S**T" when I was looking at the engine pics, I could afford one of those cars!
Thanks! |
Re: Orlando "Fastest Street Car Shootout" 07
An Interesting sidenote......They were making announcements at the Track about having a "Live" Video Link on the Internet to all the action.......but they couldn't get the Link to work.....they Finally figured out what was causing the problem.....someone had a Radar Jammer in their Car or Truck which was causing enough Interference so the Camera couldn't communicate with the Computer.....they were making announcements trying to get whoever it was to turn it off.......Don't know if they ever go it corrected.....went on the net and couldn't find the Link....
