hey.. you tried to block my line... and I was only good for a lap or two anyway... didn't call me "Crash" for nothin.. and I thought you were just offering a little additional traction

We are NHRA drag racing... bracket racing two sleds, one a 600 the other an 800... at the small tracks we race cars at the bigger tracks we race bikes and other sleds... I sucked at it.. Janet finished 6 or 7th for our track in Pro Eliminator... sadly the terrain racing (snocross, x-county, and hill climb) is past us as our old bodies just don't handle the pounding anymore... but to be honest.. THE BEST RACIN was with the OSRC!!!

 

[mattymac]

how long of a run is it???

 

[VinRacer12]

Not 100% sure. I would expect at least 500 ft. Contact Pro Caliber of Bend at 866-318-7074

Bracket/index/heads up classes? 2 stroke and 4 stroke run in same classes? Tried Pro Cal without much info.. Maybe someone can post the flyer?

 

[Hornet]

Yeah, someone post the flyer. First time I saw it was at the Boise snow show last weekend.

 

[mattymac]

neither number worked for me, pro caliber number posted is for the washington shop, the toll free number??????

pro caliber of BEND said 660 ft and thats all that they could tell me. We need some more info!!!!

Used to go up every spring, great drags, Wongs from Roswell Idaho had a couple 707 triples that went like crazy, unfortunately he passed away, he was one hell of a competitor. Can't wait to get up there and take this in might even bring up some old school mods.

Anybody want to be competitive in the small cc open class? I got an old fashioned turbo with nitrous injection mtn class dragster that is collecting dust. Once upon a time this was an elite sled. We pretty much dominated if they had a class for us. Back in those days anything open was classed together so the best of the best 250HP and up guys could out run us. NOT THE AVERAGE GUYS AND DEFINITELY NOT THE LITTLE GUYS! No time, no races, and nobody wants to drive across the world to wrench. Those where the days!

Heck I even have a sweet gooseneck race trailer to throw in ...you can be instantly a big time racing team!

 

[n2otoofast4u]

Called pro cal again. They are about as usless with this as it comes to this point. Its my understanding Mark Young and John Clapp are a part of this. Ill try and get some info from one of them?

 

[Maul]

Go to centraloregonsnowbusters.com or their facebook page should have some info.

 

[n2otoofast4u]

Heres the flyer.. Hoping to get some class rules as well as what equipment will be there. Are we talking pre stage, stage, 60, MPH, and win lights or is the an arm/flag drop deal?? Either will be fun. Now looking to find out what makes what not fit into a class. This is creeping up and all we need is snow and answers. My crew will be there rippin a few strokers and pokers in a few different classes..

 

[Maul]

There will be lights and a finish beam, no arm drops or flags.
Will try and get more info posted soon.
