Hey guys, this is a new event, im not involved, but i am participating and wanted to personally go against a variety of cars and would love to personally do some runs against some really fast rx7's. Hope some of you guys with 500rwhp and up are down to join us for some healthy, legal competition!

Is that the Horsepower Freaks' 1000hp M3 I see signed up?

Is this spectator friendly?

 

No, that is another one. There is going to be a lot of HPF cars there, and the HPF shop car might be there.

I would personally love to run against a 600-800rwhp RX7 Anyone?

 

Sorry, the event is not set up for spectators as of right now, just those participating and their close friends/family

 

people who sign up can they have a passenger ride with them?

 

Aw darnit, thats too bad.

 

Yes you can. Good idea too for video footage

 

^ Let me ride with you then. Problem solved!

 

Hahah. Damn that's far out there...

 

There should be some fast domestics there too.

 

All you need is a 350+hp one to go against...trust me.

 

Maybe an ol' schooler with one of those 20b rx3's?

 

that place is far, just minutes away from China Lake Naval Base off 395.

 

interested in the results! they did a 1/2 mile run at an airstrip here in PR past October, same thing, no spectators only participants but there was zero rotary representation! I'm trying to get invited to the next one this year to run my soon-to-be-single FD

 

I'm curious about what kind of speeds people will be getting in a 1/2 mile. I think gearing will make a big difference in how fast you'll be at the end, since you'll def have to shift past 4th (or even into 6th if you have a t56 or some other trans). So for this event, is the winner the guy with the higher speed or the guy who crosses the finish line first? Sounds like they will be running 2 cars at a time, classic drag race style. HP definitely rules the longer the course is.

 

Don't worry it looks like a 1200hp turbo LS3 FD is going to enter from norotors.com

So the RX7 will be represented properly with a decent chance of finishing high on the list.

 

i got about 400 to my wheels, but damn there will be alot of 1000 hp cars there, are they gonna do runs in classes or is it just line up. kinda far, but not that far, interested in attending.

 

Can you PM me a link to their build thread?

 

interesting, may go spectate

 

Maybe not, tho.

Prove it!

Yes, two cars running side by side. Most will be starting are around 40-60mph. You will be allowed to start from a dig as well if both cars agree. I personally plan on hitting about 180mph by the end of the 1/2 mile, starting at around 50mph....

The winner is the guy that passes the finish line first, so traction plays a huge factor.

Hey, that's not really a RX7 anymore!

They will be splitting cars into two groups. Fast and super fast. Within those two groups, you can run whomever you desire. They aren't going to line you up against a 1000rwhp Vette, that would be pointless.

 

well here are the results from the 1/2 mile run in PR last october, sorted by car, so you guys get an idea

I would love to go and watch.. sounds like that's not gonna happen though. What car are you driving? And give us some details man. Make/model/year, mods, weight, wheel hp/tq, etc. Pics? Any 1/4 mi passes? 180 mph in a 1/2 mile means you are making retarded power/weight ratio. IIRC a stock ZR1 vette will run a whole mile in about that speed IIRC (dont' quote me on that!).

Judging by your login name I'm guessing it's a BMW M3

 

I don't think mike has a build thread up. But its a built LS9 short block with MAST LS3 heads.

 

Here's one guy with an 2010 ZR1 guess it's stock. 180 mph in standing mile. Not a 50 mph rolling start...

You must be packing some serious heat to run that in a 1/2 mile bro. Please take some vids
