Took dyno operator for a ride today after dyno visit, he opened shop just for me, good thing he’s only about 35 as he was holding on more then once, scared myself even, getting loose in 4th over 120 will make even the young’s sphincter loose its grip once in a while 😆

At this point,,, all I can say is 4,500 rounds of amino and 300 guns, legal. Living on a golf course. Clear shots for whom and wins.. I can sell a gun for 0 but sell a round for $10.00. Smartness with a AK7 with a few cans. Living on a bayou can make a person of ya.

It was first time track opened for the year, hopefully all of last years bugs where dead lol, it was disgusting though, the strap was frayed and looked like a horses tail, couldn’t even lace it right but it was safer then my pristine O’Neal helmet. Wonder if the frayed dusty strap contained the pneumonia?????

My widebody Redeye is 4440 with a quarter tank. Cloth interior and only option is 3.09s
That’s very interesting. So it’s basically 100 pounds lighter than a charger hellcat. Being the weight around 4575.

Cause its only got two large, extra heavy, lame Challenger doors instead of four awesome, manly, ultra-light weight Charger doors.

So it may only be 100 lbs? We had a '13 Charger R/T that was 4450 with driver. We now have a '18 Challenger R/T it is was 4250 with driver. I was under the impression same model between the 2 was 200 lbs.

I was able to weigh my Charger Hellcat today 1/2 tank of gas with Hellcat wheels and it was 4770 with me (195)

I am surprised a Hellcat weighs 300 lbs more then a R/T

I like to weigh my car every time I run but their scale was down the end of the year and when I did run this year. I was there watching today and the scale was working

After test driving a Rouche stang last week,, the weight difference was un, deliverable. No metal, no large tires and wheels, different engines. Makes a big difference.

Would like to see some more weights with details like gas, race wheels, driver, etc.

Why two helmets? You have two heads?
I generally have 2 with me as well....

I have my "good" helmet that I use.... and then I have a Racequip (was my first helmet before I upgraded) that I bring along for passengers or if someone is going to need to rent one. The race track helmets are pretty ragged out as noted earlier.

I didn't think showing up to the track without a helmet was a thing. But on the other hand I see people that have never went down a drag strip go completely past the staging lights or stage with their rear wheels (saw the second last night followed be a 2 second reaction time). You should watch for awhile and understand what you need to do before jumping in. I do know some times people forget to bring them and they ask to borrow someone's but can't say I have heard of renting one from the track

Generally people coming for their first time to see what it’s like as a passenger.

Some guys who want to run their car just once may not want to invest in a helmet. I have a nice open face SA15 for sale (Large) only used one day for (2) 20 minute runs when I took the HC for a Track day at Summit Point, WV. They did not rent helmets so I went ahead and bought one. I don’t need it anymore since I sold the Hellcat and don’t plan to race my Daytona.
