Welcome back drag racers!

qwkswede has handed me the reins for the East Vs. West Drag thread. I am really excited to get this back up and running. I know we are going to have some fast cars this year.

It will take me a week or two to get everything dialed in, and catch up on any '26 timeslips. I plan on sharing this thread on the FB group, but I will ask that all submissions be from a TB forum account. No FB submissions will be accepted as this has been and will continue to be a Forum competition. Who knows, maybe we will even gain a few more members from FB.

***This will mainly be a North American thread but everyone is welcome as I have made an International class.

Rules for Competitors:

  • Be mature, no cheating/bending rules, and no complaining. This is for fun. If you cheat, you're out.
  • Your time submission should include a photograph or video of your car and the score board reading your time. Also a time slip photo and or fellow member verification can be used if approved.
  • Any runs made must be in the current year.
  • ALL submissions MUST be made from an active TurboBricks forum account. Facebook group submissions won't accepted (So make a TB acct. if you don't already have one).
  • 1 registered run per owner/vehicle combo, so send me the fastest run you have. That's the one I'll record. If you own 2 Volvos, I'd love to see the data collected for both.
  • If a vehicle is sold to either side, points remain until new owner beats the standing entry and the previous time and points are removed.
  • If a Driver moves sides, points remain until driver runs at new location and previous points are removed.
  • All runs must be made at an official timed 1/4 mile drag strip. Self timing, or non sanctioned timing devices are not allowed. Post 1/8 mile times if you must. I'll log them in a separate section and decide how to tally points if there is enough interest.

How to Submit a Time
Submitting a time is as simple as posting in this thread with a picture of your timeslip. If your points don't get tallied send me a PM. Sometimes I'm busy and get behind reading.

I need the following things from you for a verified submission:
  • Board Username
  • Car Model
  • Brief (A sentence or two) Description of your Vehicle
  • Location (East, West, or International) and Class (Turbo, N/A, or Hybrid)
  • A Scan of your timeslip, for verification purposes. Either circle your number on the slip, or (better!) include a photo of the car with the numbers on it.

I can't wait to see what this year brings.

What is everyone racing? Model? Engine? Transmission?
Where is your home track?

I am running my '88 744. Twin turbo aluminum 5.7 LS. t56 6spd. My new home track is Dragway 42 in W. Salem, OH.

More updates to come.

Thread stuck.
I am a drag noob, ironically since my father drag raced in the early 60s.
I plan to start running once in a while, after getting my feet wet at SE.
Home track is US 13 in Delmar Delaware, 3-4 miles from my house. In high school i lived mere blocks from it.
It used to be Friday night and Saturday drags, Sunday night stock cars. They have cut back a lot.

It's a blast. I'm sure you will enjoy it. What car will you be running?
 
Ok everyone, we are up and running. Same rules apply as in previous years.
Let's see those slips!

***This will mainly be a North American thread but everyone is welcome as I have created an International class for anyone outside of N. America.

Any chance dragy results will ever be considered? I'm planning on going to some roll race events this year. But they're at airstrips, not official drag strips.

Probably not. At least not in this competition as it is for standing 1/4mi racing not roll racing. Just head out to a test and tune to get some slips. Darryl Cuttell and the IHRA have been buying up tracks like crazy to update and even reopening closed tracks.

Who knows though, you may have enough interest to start a Roll racing competition.
