Lightbulb 60-130 Event - Lonestar Motorsports Park - July 18, 2009

A Bunch of guys from my old forum is putting this event on if anyone in that area is interested :

60-130 Event - Lonestar Motorsports Park - July 18, 2009 - 6speedonline.com Forums

From Peter :
"Many of you have heard about (or attended) our 60-130 events in the past. This is an opportunity for all of us to get together and have some fun with our cars without abusing them yet still be able to go over 130 mph legally! The premise is simple:

Rent dragstrip
Put a GPS based driftbox on your windshield (like a radar detector)
Roll through water box
Floor your car at about 20 mph
Hang on and let off around 135 mph
Get a GPS verified time it takes for your car to go 60-130

Here is an excellent article written about the 60-130 measure:

http://www.examiner.com/x-5826-San-J...mile-drag-race

When: Saturday July 18, 2009

Where: Lonestar Motorsports Park (Sealy, TX)

Time: Gates open at 2:30 pm and track is hot from 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm

Cost: spectators are $15 and racers are $50 (same as always)

Caravan Info: meet at the Conoco gas station at I-10 and Eldridge (off Eldridge just north of I-10) at 1:20 pm. We will leave promptly at 1:45 pm to Lonestar.

The track will re-open at 7:00 pm and will be open to all 60-130 participants to drag race until midnight!"
