: Who will break their ET record ..Team Chevelle Day April 14
69bigblock Mar 13th, 07, 7:00 PM It is short notice due to new owners at the Denton Dragway site so I hope the moderator will allow this post since most attending come from this forum. That being said, new records were laid down last fall in this event and I know some changes and testing has been going on. I welcome anyone here to come and join us for food and fun at Denton Dragway on April 14th. Here is a link. http://www.dentondragway.com It looks like John will be coming back up from Houston (at least I think he is), I invite more from houston to join us and many are coming from the new North Texas Chevelles club. We can either cook food like last time or I can pick up catered food again. I will be testing my new High Definition camcorder so we will get some great pics and film. I have swapped out gears from 4.57 to 3.89 so I am curious of the result. Bring your wife, kids, friends or just yourself as we all park together and have a great time. Email, IM, or just post here if you would like to join us or just have a question.
Thanks in advance....
frankf72malibu Mar 13th, 07, 7:56 PM Frank,
Thank you for setting this up. You have done a great job as always! Cooking food there should be good. We can all agree to bring different items. Put me down for the hot dogs and brats. We will have to make sure to get some video of you with your high-def camcorder as well. I would like to see how much lower John will dip this time as well as see Jason run some pretty fast times. How are the 3.89's treating you? Will you be cracking open the nitrous bottle with the new gears? I look forward to seeing that as well. Thanks and see you there.
Frank
JOHN WILSON Mar 13th, 07, 10:46 PM Guys, I'm planning on being there. As far as new bests, well I guess that will depend on the weather. ;) However, I have made a few changes since last fall that should help the et. See ya'll there.
DragRacer Mar 13th, 07, 11:07 PM I plan on being there as well. I've made a bunch of suspension changes over the winter as well as having my converter fixed. We'll see what happens I guess.
I'm looking forward to seeing everyone there!

chris454ss1970 Mar 14th, 07, 12:07 AM I should be able to make it. My car won't be though. I might bring my daughter and son-in-laws ride down to make a few passes. Let me know what to bring food wise. I will be bringing my video camera as well, only with a tri pod this time. I look forward to seeing everyone and the changes with their rides. Later
Chevelle 6-71 Mar 14th, 07, 12:31 PM Put me down for sodas & ice. This will be the car's first drag meet so I am more than good to go!! :yes: :beers: :yes:
Motorhead62 Mar 15th, 07, 1:25 AM I will be there if I can. My retail job has me working crazy hours and days.
Regretably my Chevele is still not back together. I hope to have it running and driving in a few months.
As always this will be a great time. Thanks go out to Frank for seting this up once again. :hurray:
67SS138 Mar 15th, 07, 2:09 PM Hi Everybody,
I will try to be there, wont know for sure until I get my schedule around the 21st march. This should be a good time,lets try and keep a bigger area reserved so all our cars will be in a general area where we can hang out together!! When it is closer,time to the event I will gladly bring food supplies to see what we all need to bring?:)

Frank, so far I like the gears. The track will let me know if I really like them. Yes, I am ging to play with the bottle and see if I can scare myself. LOL
John, it will be great to see you and your car again. We always enjoy having you visit with us. If your car goes much faster I will have to watch the replay in slo motion to see your car.
Jason, glad to see your car is ready. I will have to spray a little to try and keep up. You have that car rockin...
Chris, will be good to see you again as well. Food and video help is always welcome. Hope your car wil be ready for the fall session.
Robert it will bad.... to see your blown ride go down the track. Then see it in HD on the replay. Look forward to having you with us.
Motorhead, do we need to throw an assembly party and get that car together? LOL Seriously let us know if you want/need help. See you there.
Fritz, prioritize. First is your car, wife second and job/school third. LOL Hope you can make it. We'll get the food list ironed out when it gets closer. Frank does a good job with the dogs and brats.
70 beater, you are always welcome to come when you can. Have fun at the TMS.
Going to Denton tomorrow night for some tnt. Wish it was this weekend for the event. Hate to wait. See everyone soon.
69bigblock Apr 10th, 07, 9:05 AM It is THIS weekend! Look in the cruiz in section to post what you would lke to bring and how many are coming with you. Will John hit the 5's?

If your car is not ready just come hang out with us and meet the crew. Help us make a big show at the track. Here is a link. http://www.northstar-dragway.com/
See you there!
Matt Leuck Apr 10th, 07, 2:39 PM I'd like to come watch again... but there is a no way I can make it out there.
With 32 days until graduation, planning/hosting a golf tournament next week, finishing our senior project by next week, etc, etc I'll be lucky to just eat and sleep regularly.
Hope you guys have fun out there, and take lots of pics.
EDIT: I do have to tow my other project back to DFW some time before may 12... maybe I'll work something out.

Thanks for the offer Frank! :D The block is at the machine shop and all the groovy new parts are bought and paid for. I am making time as I can to get the car assembled. I have to build and install the new engine, install the new TRZ tubular front control arms and new disc brakes, install the new Strange S-60 rearend and then plumb it all up. No sweat right! :confused:
