Milan 10/1 or 10/3 - Page 5

ArcticGT · 10-08-2003, 08:09 AM

I'll be there, but probably wont be running, I gotta get home some how and I am not about to press my luck lately.

Besides I think the car is running rich to begin with, the whole car is messed up.

10-08-2003, 09:11 AM

To anyone going to Milan today. when you see me today just say hi and what not and introduce yourselves since I never met any one of you except for a few. I will be the only yellow SRT-4 out their. But if their is a nother one.. Look for xceedspeed.com stickers on my rear windows.

95-GT · 10-08-2003, 09:40 AM

Sorry I cant make it...gotta get my exhaust finished sometime. But maybe one day we could meet up at a meet or something.

Black03SC/T · 10-08-2003, 04:34 PM

You guys should both come to the mod day we have planned, not totally sure on the date, just waiting for a schedule check.

SilverEcstasy · 10-08-2003, 10:00 PM

Woo! What a blast, I ran three times. 15.6, 17.2 (totally spun at the line, accidentally ran through the waterbox), 15.8..kinda frustrating!!

Warthog · 10-08-2003, 10:23 PM

great night for it and a great turnout, having to pay $10 to watch is kind of bleh, along with the track sucking, but it was fun!

Nikki · 10-09-2003, 04:56 AM

Haha track sucking?!? It WAS worse than that!!!!!!!!!!
Wow I was so mad (and still am) about my sloooooooow runs...I gave up after 2 times cuz I didn't wanna drive the car into the wall like I shoulda

Something was terribly wrong with the track last night...Lapeer here I come!! If I don't do better there, then my car is seriously going off a cliff!!!

PACE · 10-09-2003, 05:38 AM

How did the 240 hp Accord run? I'm also down for Lapeer any time someone wants to go....hell-of-a-lot closer to my place.

Black03SC/T · 10-09-2003, 05:47 AM

Well I know that dave wanted to go to Milan this friday, but what if we all went to Lapeer instead, just an idea, what does everyone think?

Nikki · 10-09-2003, 05:59 AM

Hahaha I don't even wanna tell anybody what I ran...but since I have like 6 witnesses its gonna get out anyway...

15.7 @ 91 mph

what a joke!! Especially when I've read/researched that they do low 15s in the 1/4 mile...I dunno Milan was just not right at all last night!!

I'm going to Lapeer on Sunday...do you guys wanna go then?!? A few guys from Xceed are going also....I've never been there so I don't know their days/hours/etc....

I think I'm definately getting the custom plate "2SLO" now

Black03SC/T · 10-09-2003, 06:03 AM

Hmmmm. What time are you going on Sunday, I have to work until 3, and I am still not sure if we are having that mod day or not yet, but if not and if you are going after 3 let me know, or anyone else that wants to go on Friday.

Nikki · 10-09-2003, 06:50 AM

Sunday I believe we are going in the morning...sorry Jon. And I don't think I'm going to waste $20 at Milan on their crappy track for 2 runs again...

This is what I got from another board when I posted about my slow @ss times...

"ummm....... thats pretty bad times. I got 15.1 stock and 14.2 w/ nitrous in hot SoCal summer weather. As I recall you were thin so who knows what made your car slow"

So yeah...something was wrong with Milan last night...grrrr

I was surprised at your times too.

I'm almost thinking that maybe its the weather? Think about it, it got DAMN cold for the past 2 or 3 weeks, and our cars adjusted and richened (or leaned?) up, and with the warm weather come so fast, I don't think it had learned yet. Even Ryan was complaining that his car was runnin real rich. One way or another, MILAN BLOWS. Where's Lapeer? I won't be able to go cause of work, but still.

Nikki · 10-09-2003, 07:00 AM

Lapeer is located in Lapeer haha...

From I-75: Take Exit 81 (Palace of Auburn Hills). Go North on M-24 to Lapeer. Go Approx. 3 miles north of Lapeer to Daley Road and turn right. Go 2 miles to Roods Lake Road and turn left. Go 1.5 miles on Roods Lake Road and Lapeer International Dragway is on the left

SilverEcstasy · 10-09-2003, 07:26 AM

Too far, no thanks! I gotta store this thing before it hits 20k..and it looks like i'll be pushin it goin to Stanton.

PACE · 10-09-2003, 07:39 AM

You are really going to put your car away for the winter?? Is it me or is that over-kill? I love my car and everything but sooner or later its going to be a winter beater for a C5 anyways......Its just a grand am no matter how perdy you make it Mike.

Warthog · 10-09-2003, 09:49 AM

what's it cost to run at lapeer? anyone know?

athomas · 10-09-2003, 10:04 AM

Lapeer is known for producing "record times" run there and add about .4 tenths to your time.

The disadvantage there is that the pits are dirt. Unless they changed from last year.

I ran 15.9 at Milan with the car about a week old. I wonder what she'd run there now.... wait nevermind, I don't want to know.

95-GT · 10-09-2003, 10:24 AM

Lapeer still has the same dirt pit...and you have to go to a booth to request your slips.

. I am up for Lapeer Friday
