Pre-register now! We are not taking money just yet but if you would like to participate in the shootout, please pre-register so we can gauge participation.

Also, please take the time to read through the rules and classes to see where you fit best. I am sure there will be questions, so feel free to ask away!

[SC UL8R1990]

damn ive only got a few bolt-ons and im gunna me in the street modified class :( im gunna get spanked :o

oh well, should be good times. :D

[Slysc]

I'm not listed as a 2003 participant. :(

Waaaaah!!!!

[Randy N Connie]

SC UL8R1990 I am only running a few bolt-ons to.
So I probably will get spanked to.This just means
I can start to party earler.

My problem is being able to afford a trans that will live long
enough to drive that far and race then drive back.I have
figured that IT will take one trans for the drive to the track,
one for the race,and then one more AOD for the drive home. :D

[Scott Long]

Dave, I want to race my 90 AOD in the street stock class, but I don't have cats.

The only things I have modified on the car are a K&N filter (might get a MAC or ZR by the shootout), 70mm MAF off a 95 SC, cats removed, stock resonator and cherry bomb turbo II mufflers (will have the flowmaster cat back on at the shootout probably), transgo shift kit, and a 190 lph fuel pump. So I wouldn't stand much of a chance in the modified class with this heavy stock geared sc, unless I was allowed to use nitrous, then maybe I would be competitive. I don't see the catalytic convertors adding much hp to my setup, maybe like 4-6 hp at the wheels but I have never baseline dyno'd this car.

But according to the rules, I must meet the street stock rules to be able to use nitrous and run in the modified class and without the cats I don't meet the street stock rules. The car has 193k on it and the cats were plugging so I took them off when I had the heads off the car. I have stock valve size heads and a factory stock camshaft.

[XR7 Dave]

If you aren't competitive in a heads-up class, feel free to run brackets with me. The bracket classes will be fun with a cash payout. What more could you want?

Also count on plenty of time for time trials and match racing. Gotta grudge? Lets have it out before eliminations. Remember, regardless only one person can win. There will be tons of time to work on personal bests and a chance to line up with whomever you want. What more could you ask for? :D

Scott, sounds like you will be in the bolt on class. Remember, no cams allowed. How fast do you think anyone can go with a stock cam? Best I've ever seen is 13.5 but those were on ET streets and they aren't allowed in bolt on class. I think your car will do fine in that class. Biggest thing is, get some tires. ;)

[Slysc]

Randy,

Your running in Pro-street class aren't you?

[Randy N Connie]

Slysc yes if that the 15 second class.The same class Damon runs in. :)

Kidding aside,we will not be racing this year,can't afford it.May not even
have enough money to go and watch. :(

RANDY

[Scott Long]

So if I buy some cheap cats and weld them in, I could run in the street stock class and be competitive, or I could buy a nitrous kit and run in the modified class.... hmmm.

Say I had my big block SC ready in time. Anyone plan on running in the pro-mod class? Rick you gonna bring a big block SC this year?

[XR7 Dave]

Now you're thinking.

I expect to see at minimum Wayne Ing, Rich Bruhn, Gary Kuhn and Chris Lazzo in the Pro Mod class. Not sure who else.... It will be interesting to say the least. :D

[Kurt K]

I never saw it spelled out (although, I could be blind), but is it ok to compete in both heads up and brackets?

[Parker Dean]

I'd enter too, but I didn't se an Exxon Valdez/toxicwastedump class so I guess I'm out :D

[SC UL8R1990]

I hope alot of you guys in the surrounding area are going to try to make it out to the shootout this year. Im making big plans for it, since i missed carlisle :( I'm hoping my dad will let me take the suburban and a buddies trailer so i can really let the sc rip, hehe. Don't want a tow bill :rolleyes: :cool:

randy n connie, lol about the tranny. i hope you at least try to make it to watch!!! :D

[Kurt K]

...so i can really let the sc rip
as in Rest In Peace or Rest in Pieces? :D

[SC UL8R1990]

lol!! :eek: :D

[Doug Williams]

I pre-registered for the event! I would like to get it together and actually go to something!

I didn't read the rules and signed up for the modified class, but I've done a cam so I'll have to change it. So I might do the bracket thing, or enter the 94 in the stock class and bracket my 89. I don't see doing much in the pro-street class.

[VicRattlehead]

if this doesnt conflict with any of the nmra races that im going to ill be there. i dunno what i fit into but whatever works.

EDIT:

I wont be there, that weekend is the NMRA race in Boling Green, KY I already have plans to be there. Guess Ill have to wait til next year.

[Randy N Connie]

edit :D RANDY

[Micahdogg]

Dave...how did I race in the Modified Class last year but I can't fit in the Modified class this year? My crane cam is keeping me out.

I would like to register again.

Micah

[BikerSC]

Micah, we adjusted the classes slightly so that it didn't end up with one huge class and a couple of smaller classes like last year. It should even it out some.

-Steve

[David Neibert]

Steve,

To date I have received only one registration notifacation (from Dan Sly), but no payment info was included. It appears as if the pre-registration notifications are going somewhere else. Can you talk to Mike and have them sent to me, or if you perfer I can contact him directly. Please advise.

Thanks, David

[XR7 Dave]

David, the preregistrations are coming to me at this time. I can forward them to you or I can just post statistics as they come in.

Micah, plan on running in the bracket classes with the rest of us. If you can get that thing to break into the 13's this summer then we can have some fun in Pro ET with a .400 tree. :D

That's fine with me if you just post stats.

David

[tim]

Ok I registered and will race in the stock class since my car is really dead stock, honest it really is, ask Randy.

[David Neibert]

For those people who are registering...PLEASE LIST YOUR MODS on the regitration form. You can cut and paste the list from SCCoA if you have a member page.

Thanks, David

PS: Tim...no way your racing in the stock class..I know what you got.

[SC UL8R1990]

crapcrapcrap, i forgot to list my mods.

howabout....slow? :)

[David Neibert]

crapcrapcrap, i forgot to list my mods.

howabout....slow? :)

Walter,

I only need the mods when you register....they are not required for pre-registration, so your okay.

David

[SC UL8R1990]

Ok, but ill let you in on a little secret...........ive got a supercharger. Oh man, wait'll you guys see it. :eek:

[tim]

I am probably going to run in the et class. i wont be competitive in the other classes. Do I still have to list my mods? Tim

[XR7 Dave]

Listing your mods helps us determine what the cross section of participants is going to be. It also helps us to be able to let you know if you are registered for a class that you don't qualify for.

Remember, you will be required to pass tech prior to running and will be assigned a class. We are trying to help you avoid surprises. SC Shootout tech instpector decisions will be final. :cool:

[tim]

I really just want to race for fun. The et bracket should work fine foe me. I dont think my car will fit in good anywhere else. Tim

[SC UL8R1990]

i hope you all are ready to get spanked, I just ordered a new sunroof seal. :eek: :D Man i can't wait....im practically counting down the days.


btw- is bill from SCP gunna be there also?

[Kurt K]

i hope you all are ready to get spanked, I just ordered a new sunroof seal. :eek: :D Ha! I ordered mine yesterday, good luck getting past me :D

[pro street rich]

Yes I will be there and what I am bringing is still up in the air. I just got one of my black beast's running again, so who knows. It is going to the dyno this next week to get tuned in . If it comes out anything like if feels LOOK OUT.... This thing likes to spin the tires,even in second gear... Dave N. mark me down somewhere, and we will go from there............Rich.... P.S. Scott should be going as well with his new trans in place, this could be a fun time yet.........Rich

[SC UL8R1990]

please bring a big block SC, i want to take pics and make my dad eat his shirt!! :cool:

[2 Hot 2 Handle]

please bring a big block SC, i want to take pics and make my dad eat his shirt!! :cool:
maybe the reason you aren't getting much response is that it can't be found or theres no sticky up!
I just stumbled across this tonight. ...lucky I did as I've been looking yet haven't seen anything.
You need to get the word out that its on, or are you guys trying to diclude me :mad:
Really thogh, I plan on trying to attend, I just don't know which car to bring...the 94 should be all set up & making some good #s by then.
Really though put up a sticky somewhere!

[Jimmy 2Coupes]

As of now I plan on being there...just have to figure out which class to enter. Also I need to round up a trailer and probably a truck to haul the SC there. Not sure if my 4.0 liter Ranger is up to the task but I'll be looking into that. Seeing BlackbirdSC (Steve) snap a halfshaft at the V6 shootout makes me a little wary about driving the Coupe to this event. Good thing he trailerd his. :D

[SC UL8R1990]

I already pre registered but when can i register? do you guys confirm my pre-registration and email me?

/stupidity :)

[Randy N Connie]

bttt

THANKS RANDY

[SC UL8R1990]

bttt

THANKS RANDY

it's a sticky.....it's kinda hard to bump it up :eek: ;)

[Randy N Connie]

SC UL8R1990 I know, but this post was also listed on the non-tech
side.And this is where I tried to bump it up at,but it showed up here.

Don't make fun of me or I will register my SC for the shootout and spank your
A$$.In my stock SC with one or two bolt-ons. :D I just put some sealer
around my rubber door strip.To cut down on air resistance.Should be
good for a reduction of.500 off my ET. :)

I'm thinking about flying into Cleveland for the event. Would there be anyone that could pick me up from the airport if I decide to?

ThomasIf you fly into Columbus the night before I can get you.

[Thomas A]

Cooool. I'll have to take a look at the schedules for Columbus. Do you mean the 29th?

Thomas

[Kurt K]

If you fly into Columbus the night before I can get you.
I mean either Wednesday or Thursday night....it depends on my work schedule and the proposed turnout of the shootout.

I'm planning on going but i'm noy sure if i'll take my sc or just go watch,i have a slight vibration around 50 mph that i'm trying to figure out.I'll be leaving out of nashville also but i probably won't leave untill friday morning.I just left akron last week and there's not a whole lot of construction going on,so it should take about 7 1/2 hrs to get there.
