vr6tee Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 In case everyone wasn't aware, there is another (most likely last one of 2019) 1/2 mile on September 8th! Quote Link to comment
Mike Darlow Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 If the weather is nice, i'm going. Quote Link to comment
herve_g Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Do you need to bring a helmet? Quote Link to comment
al k Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 There is no requirement for a helmet, but smart drivers still wear one.... Quote Link to comment
pault Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I highly recommend this event, you get a full load of adrenalin right away. I will be at ORP in Oregon otherwise would love to be back at Cayley. Will attend next year for sure. Quote Paul T 991.2 Turbo S 991.2 GT3 Link to comment
dragon Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Registered & paid a while back haha. I plan to be at the Aldersyde Petro-Canada about 8:45am. Anyone heading out to the event is welcome to meet up there & roll out together. You can post here or text me. Quote Link to comment
vr6tee Posted September 5, 2019 Author Share Posted September 5, 2019 Going to be super fun one. Jeep vs McLaren rematch coming! Quote Link to comment
Brodie Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Danielle and I are attending, not sure if we'll be spectating or driving. In past events we chose to wear helmets. See you a Aldersyde Petro-Canada. Quote Link to comment
malcolm Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 theres always accidents in racing; not matter which mode of speed fun your into we are are far more fragile than all the surrounding elements. For example a young man, only 22 YO, lost his life last weekend in a Formula II race at Spa Francochamps..........he was wearing every safety device applicable. Wear a helmet folks, be safe have fun Quote '21 Macan GTS PDK Miami Blue/Black, 7k kms '93 928 GTS 5 speed Polar Silver/Linen, 192k kms '88 928 S4 A/T Black/Ivory, 190k kms '09 Cayenne GTS Tiptronic Nordic Gold/Black, +336k kms '88 928 S4 A/T Red/Champagne, 110k miles (US car) Link to comment
herve_g Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 I'll be there as a spectator. See you at Petro-Canada Quote Link to comment
dragon Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Thanks again for organizing James. Please pass on the thanks to Raz, the 2 race-masters & volunteers. The weather started out a bit sketchy & the timing equipment wasn't cooperating so no time slips but still another great time as usual. No light-tree so the runs were done O-G style with either a flashlight or arm drop. All we needed was a bunch of extra cameramen & people to throw cash down & it would've been Street Outlaws 403-style haha. Like several events before, got to do the first official run down the strip & the last one. Screen-shot of my top speed on 2 runs. Quote Link to comment
vr6tee Posted September 12, 2019 Author Share Posted September 12, 2019 Dragon, Glad you could make it out as always! Quote Link to comment

vr6tee Posted September 16, 2019 Author Share Posted September 16, 2019 Dragon doesn't mess around Quote Link to comment
dragon Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Haha, thanks James. Getting a bit better on the launch but still managed to royally mess up 1 or 2 of them lol. Interesting side note the last 2 events, I've noticed my car seems to creep forward ever so slightly while at the line which sometimes messes me up. Even waiting in the cue, I now have to leave it in gear most times b/c if left in neutral, the car can start to move. Quote Link to comment
dragon Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Finally got around to putting together a quick clip of the run against the Model X. Quote Link to comment

vr6tee Posted September 17, 2019 Author Share Posted September 17, 2019 This was her first time drag racing. She never liked me racing, but now she's asking me if she should enter in our street car shootout Quote Link to comment
