Re: ISLAND DRAG-WAY..Hackettstown NJ-Good news.
I ain't no island cheerleader but some of these statements are nothing but nonsense. I ran my Firebird that that I slow to run 9.0x, every week during the 2009 and 2010 season and I had no problem stopping from 149 MPH. Prior to it, I ran my low 10 second Chevelle there for decades which had factory single piston disc brakes upfront and drum brakes in the rear and I had no problem stopping this nearly 2 ton ride from as fast as 135 MPH.
Oh, and the guy at the end of the track ain't ever going to sell to them even if they had the $. Last edited by 1320racer; 06-15-2013 at 12:37 AM. |

Re: ISLAND DRAG-WAY..Hackettstown NJ-Good news.
No issues here with stopping in the 1/4 but only 2400lbs going 170+mph..

Re: ISLAND DRAG-WAY..Hackettstown NJ-Good news.
they are not under new management!
a demarky is the new manager, a demarky was the previous manager and a demarky is the owner and landlord. THAT is the TRUTH and the FACTS! Last edited by 1320racer; 06-22-2013 at 12:26 AM. |
