Well I just heard that I am one of the seven cars chosen to compete in the Real Street Eliminator. It is a autox, drag race, 100 mile drive, carshow that is taking place at norwalk raceway in ohio. So far the competition is a AMX, an 80 vette, a 66 corvair with a V8, a 90 mustang convert, a 71 mustang convert, and a 69 camaro.
I wanted to thank everyone here that voted for me, Now I have to get the car ready. I am in the middle of a 12 bolt install. then I need to get some practice dragracing. I also need to find a trailer I can borrow/rent as I would like to tow it incase of a breakdown at the strip. __________________ |

Congrates on making the cut. I would love to do something like that. Absolutely get ahold of some slicks and skinnies {if the rules and your front brakes will allow it}. With your mph, you should be able to make it to the 11s,, especially with the 12bolt! Knock out something like a 1.70 60ft and you will be there. If your running high 11s/low 12s and you should do good in the AutoX,,,, you should place well.
BTW, when is the event taking place? I ask because I might be willing to send my ET Streets out to ya if you can cover the shipping both ways. But most likely, you should be able to find a used set for fairly cheap. If you have to use the same tires in both events, try a set of Nitto 555Rs. Wish you the best of luck and have fun! |
