ACHTUNG: Sportsman dürfen bei den Puplic Race Days fahren!

[Holger Ekerst]

In Luckau haben wir ( die Junior Dragster Teams), uns mal unterhalten über T&T in Hockenheim und die Meinung war überwiegend so, dass Junior Dragster nicht starten dürfen weil zu laut. Ich kann das schlecht einschätzen ob das 98db sind. Leise ist es jedenfalls nicht. Ich würde gerne mit Sally zum testen kommen und wüsste gerne ob jemand eine Info dazu hat.
Gruß Holger

... warum nicht einfach nen vernünftigen Schalldämpfer draufschrauben? Auch wenn der JD vielleicht etwas langsamer wird - die Konsistenz wird nicht drunter leiden ... (zumal - persönliche Meinung - ich eh nicht verstehe, warum die Dinger überhaupt so laut sein müssen - nur weil die wie ein Mini-TF aussehen, müssen die doch nicht den Schalldruck nachmachen ...)

Hello all,

Please excuse my ignorance. For this T&T session is public race really limited to street driven, registered, tagged and insured vehicles? Looking at the available classes on the entry form I'm having a hard time figuring out where to put my Chevelle and my brother's truck.

Junior Dragster - No ;-)

Public Race 1 - maybe (depends on regulatory requirements)

Super Gas/comp - probably not

Thank you,
Alex

hey alex,

test and tune for drag racing cars is generally possible at the public race days, there is just a simple noise restriction to 98 DB which hopefully should be within the boudaries of your chevelle as well as your brothers truck (which I do not know...) but I think cars with mufflers up to Super Comp are fine, if you manage to keep a Pro Mod below 98DB (turbocharged?) that would even also work.

If you are having trouble with the entry forms let me know and Ill be happy to help you with translations.

cheers!

Hi Alex !
I guess that the 2 cars are registered with US plates ?
Then you do not have to enter (and pay for) "Dragster Test & Tune",
but can treat the PRD as a "run-what-you-brung"...
Last year Jerry "Scary" Weide had his turboed Busa Bike there,
with US plates, no problem for him in the "Street Bike" class.
There were also some GIs with US and asian cars running them on US plates.
IN RWYB you pay 7€ per run (or 20 for 3, 30 for 5) and, if you want to,
you may enter the "Public Race" which is held on both days Sat & Sun.
In the last years, there were 2 classes "street cars" and "fast street cars"
depending on number and times of participants,
I guess it will be the same this year.
If I remember correctly, the classes were formed by the best time recorded in RWYB,
then there was heads-up racing with no index & break-out.
(Seperate classes for VWs, Opels, and maybe other brands).
Slicks are allowed on track at PRD.
Regards,
Benni

Matt,

Thank you very much for the offer to help. I've printed out the entry forms but just wasn't sure what class to register for. Both vehicles have mufflers, but are not registered street cars. I just wanted to know if Public race entries has to be registered/insured/etc. or if doorslammers with mufflers could enter.

Much appreciated,
Alex

Hello Benni,

Both cars operate with slicks and exhaust systems. I hope the majority of entrants run on slicks since road tires will muck up a good launch pad. The cars aren't registered but we can screw a license plate the LUV truck and I have 1968 Florida plates on the Chevelle. ;-)

Thanks,
Alex

Moin zus@mmen !

Diese Frage richtet sich an die Fahrer,
die am Dragster Test & Tune 2008 teilgenommen haben :
Wie oft konntet ihr fahren am SA und SO ?
Ich find grad den alten Zeitplan nicht,
die alte Page ist weg und ein neuer Zeitplan ist noch nicht online.
Bis dann,
Benni

Hi Benni,

wir konnte an jedem Tag 6 Runs auf die 1/4 Mile brennen.
War super organisiert und hat uns viel für die Nitro's gebracht.
Ich kann es jedem nur empfehlen, vorallem wann und wo kommt man als "kleines" Team schon mal in einen solchen Genuß

Danke an die Veranstalter und die MSTO.
Wir sind 2010 wieder Aktiv dabei, das ist sicher :deal:

PS @Benni
Wenn ich das Statement von Andrea richtig verstanden habe kann der T&T nur von den Teams in Anspruch genommen werden, die auch für die Nitro's gemeldet haben.
Bitte um Korrektur, wenn ich hier was falsches gelesen habe
