Long story short, cut@burn here on streetseen is the owner of the BMW 135i and is also looking to organize a track night, independent of the CDRA. StreetSeen will help promote, cover and organize the event.

This is an event for the people. So the questions is, what do you guys want?

Two questions in particular that need to be answered are:
1. What's the format? (match/bracket/tournament/etc?)
2. What are the rules?

Regarding the format, we talked about this idea at isles, seems like it could work really well:

Each car gets three runs. The best run counts. Two cars can run side by side, it doesn't matter. After all cars run, the times are compiled, and the best times are listed- with awards given by category: RWD class, AWD class, FWD class. Then, there would be a race for overall king of the street.

Regarding rules, this general idea seems pretty good:


Must be on DOT approved tires, be able to be registered, must have full interior, no restrictions on power adders

The date of the event is very likely going to be Easter weekend.

What do you all think? Any and all ideas/commentaries/feedback/thoughts are welcome. Again, this is about what you guys want...

Well question around the refinery is that most of the mustang or domestics have been told this doesn't include them...if this is the case who ever said this needs an understanding of a street car....but whats the deal with no domestics...or should I say full domestic not half import half domestic.

Tekknikal
03-02-2009, 01:09 PM
ive heard that talk too. personally i think they should be included... would be good to hear from those who think otherwise on why they shouldnt...

I was proposing RWD Class, AWD Class, and two or even three classes for FWD’s aspirated with nitro, turbo charged and all motor, I think more Honda’s will participate with it like this….eliminations in each class ¼ mile lights, drives pull names or numbers out the hat and pair-up. All times will be monitored and the fastest time will be announced throughout the event. Each class will have a trophy and a cash prize for the winner, the final 4 or 5 winners for each class will battle for “KING OF THE STREET” also the fasted ¼ time for the day will also get a cash prize and a trophy being crown the “FASTED STREET CAR”. This includes all domestic and imports and as Tek was saying must be on DOT approved tires, be able to be registered, must have full interior, no restrictions on power adders.:ughug:

i would suggest you guys think about it and discuss here... dont hesitate to 'think aloud'...advertising on the event is going to start very soon, so it would be good to have a consensus on how everyone feels by next monday. that way we can work on promoting the event and getting a good turn out... (since we'll have most of the important questions answered)

and please keep this thread on the topic. King Of The Streets means all who has street car and think they are fast enough to beat all, then bring it. of course the car has to pass inspection and yes Domestic should be included. me personally think it should be heads up! because bracket put a big handicap on the faster cars. classes!?! screw that shit, everyone do the 3 qualifying runs, and then every car should be compared and matched up by the best times they run. :twocents:

i see that comin, most of the good front wheel drive vehicle wont run because of the tire restraction....

i think just like how fuel additives are allowed slicks should be allowed too, just my opinion....

i just want to see the best cars at there best potential

I will race once my car is up dont care which one.... I said Hmmmm interesting becasue.. I'm really not feeling the race platform.... The idea of classes yes thats a plus... but I just a lil sceptical about what VI-EVO posted... not that its a bad idea but ... need a serious meeting before event is set... my :twocents: :)

I dont have street tires I will just run with what ever I have on my car which is toyos on my 18 volks.. or dunlop which is on my other 3rd gen... win or lose just for the surport...

LOL yammy what kind of AVATAR you trying to set lol...you beat up your kids...naw but from talking to people seems like people want tell people to bring 200 bucks instead of the 25 entry fee...thats crazy yo and second 25 bucks is fine unless your street car is arace car playing off t obe a street car. They should have people checking registration of vehicles at the gate...if this was the states at a track people would be happy just to be able to run with out worrying about cops....I think a purse will just take the fun out of it.:dunno: but thats just me....

Well what ever we do the most important thing is we need commitment and support from all regardless of what...! This is an opportunity to show them big car lovers never to forget the streets, we all have to start somewhere. A meeting is definitely need to establish what is a STREET CAR once that is determined there will be no exception to the rule. VIsuki I am not sure where your people are getting their info from but it can be German , French, American , Japanes , you get the picture...as long as it has valid VI registration. Entrance fee TBD..

this year i believe easter sunday is april 12
good friday, the holiday, is april 10
if you wanted to hold the races on a night where there's no work/school the next day- it would have to be either thurs night (april 9), fri night (april 10), or sat night (april 11)...
