2017 Proving Ground Drag Results
Does anyone have the results from the drag racing last year?
I am trying to decide which class I will compete in. I want to choose a class that will be competitive so I don't want to choose the stock appearing without reason.

Re: 2017 Proving Ground Drag Results
Classes are getting simplified from what I understand over time. The stock appearing was meant to be a bit of a "game" if you will. Almost mean to push what they consider stock appearing rather than be extremely strict, and encouraging people to push the envelope to include more people. That's what I've heard anyway.

It seemed to be OEM flange and that was it for one class and then something that could be considered OEM by someone that wasn't familiar with the brand of car.
boom, you have nothing to worry about.

Re: 2017 Proving Ground Drag Results
It's not that I am worried but I just want to have competitive racing. The car is legal in stock appearing all the way up to outlaw so just trying to decide which class to jump in (Obviously not going outlaw).
The fastest car I saw last year in stock appearing was running an 11.5 which I was running in the 10.7 range. The car may be a little faster this but the limiting factor is I am still on stock tires haha So that is why I was asking!

Re: 2017 Proving Ground Drag Results
True street or real street unlimited would probably be a couple good classes

Re: 2017 Proving Ground Drag Results
My race car more than likely not be ready, so I think I'm going to bring my 6266 powered evo for TS. We need to get some call outs going!

In that case I may need to run the SA or SA/U class! Beating a 10.3 on the street tires may be difficult!

Re: 2017 Proving Ground Drag Results
Anyone going up that wants to form a camp compound? I have a small group going up so I need enough room for my pickup, 24ft enclosed, one car and a few tents.

Re: 2017 Proving Ground Drag Results
I just found out from work I am gonna be able to come play. I just got the eclipse all put back together and ready to go. Might sign up for tts with the fd last minute here instead since I have the whole weekend to play. Tuff decisions, either way hope there is good weather.

They stopped me as well, I still ran another two 10 second passes and didn't get kicked. Do at your own risk!
