Event Coverage 1st Annual Texas Nostalgia Nationals @ Yello Belly Dragstrip Dallas TX

25 more days, all you tri-five owners, we are having the Texas Tri-Five Showdown as one of the classes, Looks like we are gonna have a fleet of tri-fives to line up against one another!

 

Sweet... we'll see ya there!

 

Noticed you guys were using my hang up for your awards. These are good folks. They now car stuff and will listen to what you want. See everyony at the hottest two weeks of the year. Ardmore White Walls & Drags May 8th & Texas Nostalgia drags May 15th. We should call this the Oklahoma-Texas Nostalgia Swing!

 

Yes Sir hang up it is, it is gonna be good times in May for sure.

 

Maybe someone will call in a bomb threat, the power will go out or something will cause the coliseum at the university to be closed on Saturday so I don't have to be at my wife's graduation and attend... but probably not... damn talk about good and bad wrapped in one day

 

you can be like the guy at church watching football on his phone, we will send you pics during the day

 

so is tech going to be this strict for everybody?

Cars with slicks must have a drive shaft loop located within six inches of the front u-joint.

Must have full firewall to isolate driver from engine.

Neoprene fuel line not allowed on trans coolers. Steel line and/or braided hose is highly recommended. A minimum of two automotive type clamps on all high pressure rubber line at splice or junction is recommended.

An electrical power cutoff switch (one only) must be installed on the rearmost part of the vehicle and be easily accessible from outside the car body.

 

bring it hudson, u will be fine

 

May have a new 55 at the track, keep your fingers crossed.

 

cool, so seat belt should be enough. i dont have a rad overflow but it never has been an issue, i can add a bottle pretty quick. hopefully i will find some rear gears for the roadster by then!

 

cool!

 

Only three more weekends to test and tune!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Counting down fast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Hey, Sounds like a hoot to me!.

I'll try to bring ole 37' Ford coupe - "Cool Vanilla"....maybe see if can get those old tires to smoke a bit!

 

Sweet /\ /\

 

To funny ! The anglia will be there but I will be working .

 

Maybe you can give Ron a tow down the track.

 

I cant wait to race maybe I can keep from breaking a axle this time!

 

what time are things going to be getting started on saturday? does the $20 pre-registration racer fee cover the driver and a passenger (spectator) or do i need to pay $30 for my gf and myself?

 

Gates open at 9am on saturday. $20 pre-reg gets you a free event t-shirt in and down the track, 10 bucks for spectators.

 

Ya I was in the same boat. I chose to go to the ring ceramony last week so I could go racing. Sorry for your bad luck but congrats to your wife.

 

Man thats an awesome idea about the mini bike races.

 

18 more days till test and tune on Friday night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't forget Little River this weekend. We can start some good grudge matches for Yellow Belly. What about "Chevy Rat" vs "Rat Trap 1" heads up, all out, no sand bagging, 1/4 mile, winner take all, drag race boys? I don't hear you!!!!!!

 

I'M GAME - JUST LINE IT UP!!!!!

AND when we get done there, it's your turn.

 

This is not a drag car, just a driver. But not sure if the guy is ready to let it go. Hell I have only seen pic's of the car, just hope he does not flake on me!
