I'm in cleveland, and we now have lost all of our lots due to trivial shit like noise. The only lots we can get cannot accomodate for our average 120-160 car size.
I was wondering if anyone else has this problem? Also, are there any clubs out there that have thier own lots that they bought and maintain? That would be very expensive, but may be the only way to get to an autox within an hours drive here (to me autox isnt worth more driving than that). we've lost lots due to condition, change of management doesnt allow it(twice), noise(twice) - in just the past 2 years. kind of sucks. now there is nothing, and I don't have the time and money to do OT. If this stays this way, I may actually have time to do my schoolwork during the weekends, but a big part of my would rather do some form of racing and procrastinate with the schoolwork. also, what types of places do you run at? airports, closed businesses?

Down here in New Orleans, we run two venues. One, is an abandoned airstrip at the local Joint Reserve Base. Luckily, one of our former auto-xers is pretty high up in the Navy, so we use the base for free! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
Our other is a parking lot of a baseball stadium (Nov-Feb only). It is surrounded by the stadium, a highway, railroad yard, and soccer fields on all four sides. I run open stock headers, and have had no noise problems so far. It's even driven on the street next to cops (at idle throttle, though). BTW, as to the Magnaflow theory - you are right. However, I'm going to spend all my money on performance GAINING modifications before I worry about doing anything that makes the car sound better. |
