Maybe they feel the same way about us?

 

very very cool!!!

 

See this?
1. Cars that are raced in the rain must have functioning head and tail lights.

I gots me a couple in a box somewhere, maybe i'll get some LED units out of a SUbaru!

 

WOW.........

That would definetly spark up a DE event or a race!......

 

Decades ago when I drove at Bryar Park (aka Loudon, now NHMS) we used to run the track once a year in the CCW direction and referred to it as Loudon Seca. With the 'new' config it's aways CCW now.

It's a lot of fun to run a track backwards but obviously most aren't set up run off and safety worker wise for such events.

 

I'm sure the neighbors just LOVE those things running around. Doesn't LRP have a pretty stringent sound limitation for race/DE weekends?

 

Yes LRP is pretty tight on noise, I think the restriction is 98db

 

More like 89 no?

 

I got a special muffler that came with my car designed for LRP. I have never had it on. I was told once at Roebling where to lift because I was red lining the db meter. No prob at Barber. Surprise!

I don't like anti clock wise tracks.

What car was that?

 

Why not?

FYI, they won't let you lift at Roebling any more. The city has been doing surprise soundchecks in 9 and 1 or 2, and cars that consistently fail but are not pulled off track by the track control generate a big fine for the track for intentionally allowing lifting. Best bet is to short shift on the main straight.

That is pretty awesome! Those cars are really fast . . .

 

At Pocono it's common to run the north infield in different directions - north course vs long course.
