Cotton eyed Joe Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 Just wondering if anyone is planning on making it out there that weekend to either race or spectate???? You can get more info @ AvenalSandDrags No, but thanks for the link. I'm sort of going to think about what I want to do with my next bike. I have the frame, just bought the a arms, going to get the engine soon. I thought the only sand drags were in silver lake and laughlin. Have you participated before?? What is required?? What is allowed? I would really like to give it a try within the next 2 years. Quote

SIKGrl Posted August 31, 2004 Author Report Posted August 31, 2004 In Avenal they are pretty layed back...you just have to wear a helmet and long sleeve t-shirt. Quote

Cotton eyed Joe Posted August 31, 2004 Report Posted August 31, 2004 In Avenal they are pretty layed back...you just have to wear a helmet and long sleeve t-shirt. So I can run anything I want, just as long as I wear a long sleeve shirt and a helmet ? I'd still consider wearing pants though. How do they break up the classes? Say someone has a motorcycle powered "atv" that they want to enter?? How does that work? Not that I know anyone that has such a thing, I'm just curious. Quote
SIKGrl Posted August 31, 2004 Author Report Posted August 31, 2004 In avenal they have different classes and it all depends on what type of times you run. And depending what time you run you can choose different classes that have different tree set ups. And of course you have to wear pants...duh. Quote

Wasn't sure if they did it by qualifying times or modifications or what..... Nice avatar BTW Quote
fast500#12 Posted August 31, 2004 Report Posted August 31, 2004 i talked to the guys that run the event this last saturday. every thing is broken up by qualifying times. and he says that the top fueler are going to be qualifying are 2.4, 2.5ish times. he also said that the world record was set there last year at 151mph at 300 feet. quallifyers are going to be on saturday the 11th and the finals will be on sunday the 12th. should be a good show and there should be some nice rides. this is a west coast points race stop. i was thinking about running my stock banshee in what ever class i could qualify for, just for fun.
