would be intresting to see if it goes through. i dont know if i would try doing any of that myself. i would rather take the money and save it for trips up north of for shit on the sled for in the winter time. i would deffinatly go to watch though.

Thats pretty sweet, cant wait to find out if they actually come through on this. Im sure toughenough can probably make it work since he runs all the real street drags and other entertainment! :banana: :beerchug:

Last night they started running 660' grass drags between the drag strip and the return lane. I will be bringing my sled home next weekend if anyone wants to run down there the week after? I am just trying to get some info on what is required for us to wear and how much it costs. I want to see how the little f6 does in the grass.

 

[Dooit800]

Not much for notice on that, i would have figured he would have gave a date if he wanted people to show up down there. Let me know see if i can get some friends that want to take theres down next thursday. Would take mine but dont have it yet :banghead:

looking to see if there is some people out there that want to race for fun for now but track owners are looking into a timing system and how to class sleds but for now we run off the flag or street race style with spots or giving the hit. thursday night is RSD (real street drags) should be a good showing. The track is currently 660 feet but we are open to ideas, so if more people are intersted in 500 feet let us know. Gates open at 5:00 pm and we can race till at least 10:00pm if not a little later. If your intersted we will see you there or email [email protected] thanks the Whale

What do you have to wear clothing wise? and whats the cost?

its ultra time... :drunk:
whitewhale...are you bringing the BIG bottle this week????

 

[whitewhale]

yes i am bringing the big blue bottle and it might have to go to a 10lb. The only required clothing is a HELMET and long pants and shoes perferably boots and a shirt. so far I heard it will cost 20 - 25 dollars to race but there will be alot of cool stuff going on with rsd and I heard TUFF ENUFF might be making some big wheelie passes Hope to see as many people there as possible thanks I will post more as I hear

 

[jsho13]

Can you run sleds any night of the week or do they have specific nights?

 

[firecatfever]

Dude that would be a blast! Unfortunatly I can' possibly fit snowmobiling in my schedule right now with all the work and huntint stuff going on! Oh, but that would be fun!

EDIT: ah screw it, I just made up my mind, the kitty is coming off the shelf

Let me know if anyone wants to hook-up for it. I haven't done any grass drags yet, so this will be something new.

 

[jsho13]

Steve, I will go with you. I am bring my f6 home this weekend most likley so we can go next week possibly? I have never run my sled on grass either so it will be a first.

[whitewhale]

the schedule is kind of up in the air right now but if there is interest it will be decided on the racers on rules length and stuff like that

I wish I could run my Zrt on the grass but I can't beat on it until I have broke in the new motor. Maybe next year. I will most likly run it there durring the winter.

 

[xcr440fast]

Hmmm....who will take home the "longest wheelie" award this week....??? :boxing:

 

[jsho13]

how good to sleds hook up on grass? When I hook up good with my f6, I can hang them off the ground for a couple hundred feet. Never get much higher than a foot off the ground though.

 

[xcr440fast]

if you set the suspension up,they will hook

 

[jsho13]

Are you running there this thursday? I might swing by and take a look. If not do you know when they are running next week?
