who's running TAI in Bowling Green 2009?
- Thread starter blackgn1
- Start date
Turbo is limited to 75 MM
To me.. if someone wants to put a 106MM on a 109 block.. can spool it... cranks the boost to the moon.. and runs it on pump gas.. more power to them. But hey.. i'm just trying to encourage
And the only problem the class really has is participation. We'll get 20+ say they'll show up and only 9 get there. Last year it was a low 11 second car that won.
As far as your cage, its between you and Beech Bend Raceway. If they allow it.. i'm not the one not going to let you run.

So the answer is YES you guys are scared of the production 4.1 block cars......as well you should be. You do know that GNs came with 4.1s OEM right?

OMG I can't stop laughing. 4k lbs minimum. You need a parachute to help slow that fat pig down.
Seriously though don't handicap us because your frame rails are filled with lead.
As far as eating and drinking all day YOU are absolutely right on with that one partner.
I hope I draw you. I'm gonna shotgun a beer at the line and tree your ass.:biggrin:Nasty Wendy

Are these the most current rules for TAI???
These are the only rules I have found...what is different now? It sounds like it is now Regals only, no nitrous/propane allowed, alchohol only for injection, and is there a DOT tire requirement or not?

Rule number 9= nitrous AND propane are ALLOWED
Unless there is a problem with the other peers, weight is the issue. vehicle must meet minimum weight. Meet minimum fuel requirement.. TTA's have always been allowed.
DOT tire.. you must drive from host gas station to track, if you want to do this on slicks.. its your call. Its not like a set of slicks dont fit in the trunk or back seat of a Regal. For safety, I prefer slicks at the track.. thats just me.. plus it makes it more competitive.
If you have a "Yellow Submarine" with four wheels, a 109 block, and meet all the other criteria.. post it up.. and you'll get the ok from your Peers which are posting here.
Dont show up Friday morning at the host gas station in your "Yellow Submarine" and not expect "drama". This is a class made for Turbo regals and Turbo Trans Am's. We need car count.. but dont need suprises. If you want to stay down low.. run the "Yellow Submarine" in the hybrid class they already have.
How can I be more politically correct? :redface:
