3800 Fall ILGPC race day??
- Thread starter Fish
- Start date
41 isnt that bad. Its probably 15 minutes further. Plus we have been there before. We were well liked and the track was prepped pretty good. Plus you can get alot of runs in there as well.
There are members that are south of us that also see GLD or Byron as a haul. Ive yet to be at 66, but from what I hear, they do not really care for FWD clubs to come and race there. Just what I heard.

for high end cars that are trying to get a nhra license yes they are strict. its the only "real track" for lots of pro racers. they count on professinal prep, not joe one tooth with his pickup truck turned into the track cleaning vehicle,VHT sprayer and porta-john hauler. chad passed tech tho with ease and a hanging bumper and wrong helemt
its not that they dont like FWD, they have 4 sec dragsters there for test and tunes and they bitch if they if they dont get alot of time(50k+ into a drag car deserves more time then the guy with the honda that has a intake)
has anyone contacted 66 or are we all going by the assumption that everyone has had for years about that place. it would better for lots of us not to have to drive 2 hours
There are people way south and way north! Its a lose lose situation. If its a raceday event then it sould be worth the trip no matter where its at. I went to Byron for the last race event ILGPC had knowing I wasnt even going to race. Have a poll and everyone will choose a Track. Set a date and then pick the track.
Ok...here the deal...quit complaining about the track. I dont see one other person in this thread who has made an attempt to get this going. I for oone had nothing to do with it either.
I drove 3 hours to the mod day earlier this year. Big deal. Im gonna drive the 2 and half hours to the track at us41, and I know there are people farther than me.
Everyone is always full of great ideas but no one ever acts on them. Rt 66 I dont believe even has sunday test and tunes...let alone the cost of us going there to rent a track out. Yeah sure everyone pitch in.. it wont happen. The poor fool who forks up the cash up front will be SOL. Its happened in the past repeatedly.
If you dont like the track choice...tough. Dont go. It'll give the rest of us more runs in that day cause it'll be less cars.
Ive seen people talking about racing at GLD recently. For me..that a haul. But Id go to see all the GP's run.
Someone has taken the motivation to set something up for a dying club that basically only hangs out in parking lots on friday and saturday nights. Cut out the bs pick a date and lets leave it at that and get it set up.
I give props to Fish and who else is helping him with this. If you need a hand with anything Fish, lemme know Ill do what I can.
and I say the 14th

sinr nothing says you have to go to 41, you were bitching last year about track prep and 3 of us (maybe more) had gone out and ran personal bests that fall day. I would say its not the track prep as much as the driver error. I dont give a shit if he has 100k into a dragster, if we pay the same amount for test-n-tune as he does we should have equal rights to the track, not oh he spent more so he gets 2x as many runs, that is a bullshit way to run a track. US41 as track has treated us very well in the past and Im sure they will conitinue to do so in the future. And yes if you couldnt tell im another 1 of the people helping to get this together for everyone.

I'm in the northside and will still go to US41 all other tracks is just a big line of cars and only getting 2 or 3 races depending if there isnt another club renting the track for the day. I will shoot over there to hang, cant race the car cause there is issues with it so i dont want it to break. I dont care what date lets just go!!
