Anyone planning on making it out to Tuscon for the duct tape drags this year? I’m much better prepared than last year.. not saying much since my engine was still apart this time last year.

Sorry about that. It’s an event similar to Roadkill nights/ zip tie drags that the motor trend guys put on… 1/4 racing and usually a burn pit to get sideways in.
 
I’ll be there……again. Haven’t missed one yet.
 
I'd like to go to one, but so far away.......
 
We drove out last year after a huge thrash to get the car back together. Great time, camped in the car at the track with friends doing the same. Even though my car was hurt I got in on the hooptie challenge. Looking forward to this year. However, looking at possibly trailering out this year.
 
Freiburger hasn’t announced the “drive” yet but he did say there will be a caravan again. Either leaving from Irwindale raceway like the first few trips, or Ontario mills mall like last year. The drive with everyone is a lot of fun if any of you local guys can make it.
 
I'll be there, but I live there...

So if any out-of-towners get here and have any trouble. Hit me up, I'll see what I can do to help.

I guess I should have mentioned I live in Tucson as well. Same offer stands with me. If you need help, let me know!
 
Better hurry and get your entry in if you want track time. I hear it’s filling up
 
Drove out with the group today. Thunderstorms and heavy rain in Tucson in the afternoon but it cleared up later on. Test and tune was Canceled for today but racing is on for tomorrow. Clear and 70 with a little wind now and cloudy, 91 tomorrow. Should be a good day.

Was mostly fun. Pretty bummed on the rain we got both days. Here are some pics.

@74Dart318 your car is bitchin it was nice meeting you and getting to see it in person.

You should include your car! That’s a great looking ‘74!
Thanks! Very kind of you both.

I only grabbed pictures of a few other cars. Was lazy with taking pictures this year.

Holy crap! Look at all those wagons!

Like 10 years ago they were the best source of FMJ disk conversions in the wrecking yards, nobody wanted them. Now they’re cool!

I guess that’s just how it goes, Fox body mustangs and IROC’s are the same way. Used to be a dime a dozen, now people pay too dollar for ‘em
 
That blue wagon ran 10s. And looked stock except for the wheels. Wasn’t able to talk to him but I wish I did.
