Alright fellas, lets give it a try. The rules are similar to the show with the exception of red lights (see below). We'll most likely learn a lot the first go round so if you see something you'd like to change, feel free to bring it up. I changed one Pro Street rule. PSO will allow double flanged wheels.
Top 5 are locked in and can begin call outs now. 6-10 will be determined by a separate qualifying session before the event begins to complete the top 10 list. Positions and times will be posted ASAP so that the bottom 5 can start calling each other out. #6 will have the chance to call out #5 if they choose to do so. #10 can be called out by anyone that is not on the list. The only way to get to #1 is by beating cars ahead of you on the list one car at a time.
First race will be at Pikes Peak Dragway the night before the Spring Nationals at DCU. Pro Street Outlaws will be ran at 18V. Post in this thread if you will be showing up.
PRO STREET OUTLAWS
1) SJRACER
2) KIWIDAVE
3) NOSUBFOR3
4) SKR
5) EAGLE RACING
6)
7)
8) 9) 10)
- Both cars ran with one controller. Red lights do not apply since cars will get power at the same time.
- Crossing the centerline will be considered a loss.
- If you get called out for an event, you must show or you'll lose your position. Missing two races will drop you off of the list.

Honestly Dave, I was planning on running the Great Pumpkin at Alpink's race. However, I've never been a hard man to find so I'll put something together just for you. I may lose but bet your bottom dollar it will be to a time much better than a 0.916. I'm shooting for a time better than my track record at JJ's track! Never wake a sleeping bear or in this case a sleeping pumpkin!

For those that might be wondering what that E.T. was, it was .842 on my sectioned track. That's lighting it up! |

thank you Sam.
by dynamic braking do you mean a shunt across the rails?
reverse polarity on the rails?
wider than normal rails?
I don't mean to be rude, but I just like to have an idea.
we have t-jets that go the full distance of an 8 foot steel shut down.
magnet cars stop sooner, but not all of them.
4' sounds adequate..
I like the "NTRA approved bath towels"!!!

yes, shunt across rails. Shutdown surface is the same as the timed section. When I move my track to the longer wall, I'd like to try the strap metal as a shut down, I'll also have more shutdown room when I do make the move. I haven't been running any classes higher than 18 volts in its current configuration.

KiwiDave made us this cool logo for PSO. If you look on the home page towards the top left you will see the top 5 list.
