Linda, Fopar and I had Breakfast yesterday morning, drove out to the track and loaded up the Hooptie at 8:30. We were all gassed up, so pulled the car down to Craig Road, and over to 95. Turned North at Reno and climbed the grade out of Susanville on 139.
97 to 58, and up I-5 to the house. Got in about 5:50 this morning.

Snow, a passle of deer, a very bushy Coyote, and hard pack on top of the pass.

We lived. Linda and Fopar slept the last 60 miles on and off.

Very Happy

We Lived!

CJ

We pulled in at 8pm last night. Long drive but uneventful. Thanks to all of the Slanted family. We had a great time on our first MATS experience.

If someone can get me a good write-up of the event I'll add it to SSRN #54 that we are finally getting close to completion.

Also, we need the points earned by everyone so that we can accurately keep track of everything!

Don't forget the two new weight classes that are wide open for getting your names in the record books!

Here's an excerpt:

AA weight class: “Any vehicle of any type (open wheel, dragster, altered, doorslammer, motorcycle…) with a Slant 6 engine that is 1999# or lighter”

D weight class: “Any doorslammer type vehicle with a Slant 6 engine that is 3200# or heavier” (C weight class will now be 2700-3199#.)

Each of these classes would have the normal 4 subdivisions by engine category:
1) “NA, gas” (naturally aspirated, any fuel except for nitromethane)
2) “NA, alcohol” (naturally aspirated, any type of alcohol fuel - methanol or ethanol, for example)
3) “Nitrous” (nitrous injected, either gas or alcohol fuel allowed)
3) “Unlimited” (turbo, blower, etc…)

We would also have 1/8th and ¼ mile subdivisions for each of the new classes.

If you are running a 170 block engine, you are to be classed in the weight bracket just above the bracket the car weight actually falls into. For example, if you have a 2200# car, you would run “A” weight class with a 198/225-block motor, BUT if you have a 170-block motor, then you would be officially classed as a “B” class car.

Another reminder is that you must be running at an official Slant Six race in order to set a record. You must also back up the record pass by running another pass that is within 1% of the record pass ET and/or MPH. For record setting, it does not matter whether you are in practice runs, qualifying, or in eliminations.

For now, you must set a 1/8th mile record at an 1/8th mile race (no ¼ mile splits allowed). There has been discussion about this too, and I expect we will revisit this before long.

Thanks!
