rrmccabe Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 So is anyone going to Eddyville Friday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rrmccabe Posted August 17, 2008 Report Share Posted August 17, 2008 (edited) Wish some of you boys would have went. Not many street cars there on Friday. It gave me a chance to at least get a baseline on my tune. Ran low 8.2s all night with 2100-2200 DA. Need to work on my tune a little more but getting close. First run I asked the guy "Do I need to wear a helmut". He says.. "haha. No" Second run, the guy says.. Uh, looks like you need a helmut. But most the night I got my butt kicked running 5-6 second race cars. Funny feeling launching and seeing a car two lengths ahead of you with the front wheels 16" off the ground and getting out MPH at the end by 60 mph !

Linzerella Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 I'm tring to get Zippy to go to a track in Iowa (considering Eddyville) on Friday, Sept. 26th since he will already be in Wisconsin that weekend at the Great Lakes Dragway on Sunday the 28th. Let me know if any of you guys are willing to meet there and if we get a few guys together I know Zippy would be willing to make the LOOONG drive........(7 hours) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me know if any of you guys are willing to meet there and if we get a few guys together I know Zippy would be willing to make the LOOONG drive........(7 hours) I KNOW i could line some things up for it to be worth the drive. shoot, I'm down for it. I know the Illinois trip got to be a little out of hand with the tuning, so let me know what you would like to see and i will make it happen. I got my fingers crossed to see Zippy in cornland!

redss.com Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 Anyone signed up for the 20/30 roady rally in central IA? I'm either going to the rally or will be in Chicago this weekend. Just seeing if anyone else had signed up. It's $75 by the way... http://2030roadrally.com From the website: About Road Rally Wednesday, May 14 2008 - Event Combine the fun of RAGBRAI, the strategy of a chess match, some of the nicest cars on the road, and the best day's worth of adventure you can find in the great state of Iowa, and you have the 20/30 Road Rally, presented by Flying Hippo. The 20/30 Road Rally is a competitive event where teams compete against each other by attempting to MATCH the clock (not beat it) in the audited time from checkpoint to checkpoint. The route is secret, and revealed to each team throughout the day. It's a great (and legal) way to raise money for the things that make central Iowa such a great place to work and live, see some things in Iowa that you never knew were there, and an absolutely fantastic way to get a few last summer kicks with your friends. All of the proceeds go to organizations that are serving our community in a variety of different ways; from helping women and children, to providing mentors for young students who will grow into new leaders, everything that this event raises will go back to central Iowa.
