AF DSM Meet 2008 - South

Ok guys, I haven't figured out all of the details yet but I wanted to fill everyone in on the plan so far. Right now Im trying to find a 1/4 track that is open on Saturday. I think I might have found one in Aiken, SC. I am also looking for an awd dyno that we could use sometime that weekend. There is one here in Columbia, and one in Charleston. Its going to come down to the track we choose and which is closer. We also need to find a camping spot someone close to these locations. I dont think anyone really wants to stay in a boring hotel.

Let me know if you are going to try and be here so I can get an estimate of how many will be here. Also if your intested in the dyno/track. Its looks like this is going to take place in either SC or NC. Thats about in the middle of most people. Hopefully this will happen around March, April, or May.

Let me know if anyone has any suggestions on anything. Hopefully some people that are familiar with this area can help out. Vanilla - Let me know if there is anything up in NC. I didn't see that many 1/4 mile tracks there.

*The Official List*
1 Silvr - Gs Turbo Y
2 Cj - Gst Y
3 Guy here maybe - Evo
4 Joe - RS Y
5 EvoMex - Evo
6 bleedEGLblue -Tsi?
7 Brian - Talon
8 Vanilla - 2.4 Turbo M
9 TEMG - Gsx N
10 Solar-Eclipse - TSI
11 Xavier3Jr - GST? N
12 David-b - ESI Y
13 tfoti - Talon N
14 Richard - Civic Si M

Re: AF DSM Meet 2008 - South

I'm up for it man, me and my buddy and his evo would easily go up there. Does it have to be a campground or can it be just the middle of the fucking woods? As long as the cars make it thru i think we should go somewhere secluded.

***EDIT***
I think bleedEGblue siad he could make it, and nilla gorilla said he would be up for it.

Re: AF DSM Meet 2008 - South

Originally I was going to say we could camp by the lake in Hartville, no one lives on it really. And its only like 10 minutes from the track, but the track is only open to "street" cars on wednesday night. So I dont think thats going to work out. But anywhere is fine with me.

Yea I will definentely make it down. Then before or after the meet I can stop at Moncks Corner and get some work done on the house. Lol trust me with how much work is needed down there I will have a good enough excuse to make it.

Re: AF DSM Meet 2008 - South

Yea I didn't think there were any up there. I guess that rules out NC for the meet. As far as having it in Florida, I think that may be a little to far south. Let me know what you guys think. Its fine with me but some you guys north of NC might have a long drive.

Re: AF DSM Meet 2008 - South

I know nothing about tacks down in that area. Anyone know of any sites or anything to visit about some info? Besides googling "South Carolina tracks + Georgia tracks + Florida tracks" I am useless lol

Re: AF DSM Meet 2008 - South

I have just been searching "Drag strip in SC" or something. I get lots of tracks but nothing we can use. We need something thats open to the public racing on Friday or Saturday. I seem to have found some open on Friday night 6-11. *How many people would be able to make this time?* This would give us all day on Saturday to dyno, then Sat. night would could just be whatever. We could cook out and hang out at the camp site or something.

I need some feedback on the track time.

Re: AF DSM Meet 2008 - South

As far as the times and crap..its whatever man. I can make anything, I don't work, lol. I might have a job by then but I'll just get the time off. As far as where it should be...I'm not driving any further than SC. I mean if y'all want to have it some where else, its fine, I just won't go.

Re: AF DSM Meet 2008 - South

Well guys, Im not so sure we can find a 1/4 mile track. There are only 2 in SC and and one is open on Wednesday night and the other is Thursday night. There is an 1/8th mile track that is open on Saturday.

It pretty much comes down to if yall want to run on a 1/4mile track it will have to be on a weeknight.

Comments?
