Did some legal roll Racing in the GTO

[Justins00ss]

Hey guys. Here at Palm Beach international raceway they host a roll racingracing event every month. Street Racing Made Safe is geared towards the guys who have more street friendly modded cars. No Outlaw, promod or crazy drag cars here. Figured it would be a good time go have some fun and bring both my little boys to the track for the first time


How it works is you can pick who you run and decide on a 20mph, 30, 40 mph rolling start from behind the tower. You can do a dig run but there is no prep. Once you get to speed by the tree you race till the end of the 1/4. I am from the school of standard 1/4 so this was a bit different but really fun. Had 4 races. I beat a turbo M235 BMW and a new 2015 Charger Scat Pack 392. Lost to a c6 vette and a nice built 1LE Camaro.


First run against the turbo M235. Don`t mind the granny shift into 4th. Already had him by a good bit. lol

Best race for me against the 2015 Charger Scat Pack 392. Listen to the end. I think he was a bit surprised. lol

Cool !!!

Hope the kids had fun.

[Justins00ss]

They sure did!!

Sounds like you had fun. I`d like to try that. Probably shouldn`t have told Ron you lost to a Vette.

Looks like a good time! I told Andre@Autogeek if he brings his Mercury Sable I would pay for him to race me but he always changes the subject.

Before the cam swap with a set of Mickey Thompson drag radials it went 12.4@110

Very cool. I`d love to try some roll racing.

Didn`t realize the GTO was that fast, as I haven`t seen any at the track.

Very similar engine/power to my Jeep SRT8 same OHV configuration and almost the same displacement.

What`s your best 1/4mile time from a dig?

Supposedly this is finally going to happen Next month there will be some Sable v.s. Sable action at the track.
