If you've ever thought about taking your car out to the drag strip, this is the time to do it.
A friend of mine knows the owner of the Muncie Drag Strip www.munciedragway.com and has rented the track for a private Cobra event. This originally started out as a Superformance only event but we've opened it up to all Cobra makes. This will be a fully operational day at the track, not a typical rental day. There will be a full track staff, ambulance, spectators, ¼ mile, racing fuel etc.
Tech inspection will be minimal. Just make sure everything is tight on you car and that you're not leaking any fluids. Safety equipment will also be minimal. Snell 2005 helmet, seat belts (with harness preferred but not mandatory) and a catch tank for the cooling system
For those who have always wanted to bring their cars to the drag strip but have been intimidated by the staging process, Christmas tree, how to properly launch etc., Scott (who has a SuperGas car) will provide full instruction with Dave’s (the track owner) assistance. Some will be classroom and some on track. For those who are interested we will have a novice sign up sheet and you will be a pro by the time you are done.
No pressure. No long lines of ricers and late model Mustangs; just your friends and their cars. Run as easy or hard as you want. Practice your shifting under power. Practice a high rpm launch. Play with tuning, tire pressure, whatever. Imagine it - not bench racing but actually sitting in your Cobra watching the "tree" for that
green light (actually if you wait for that you're already behind).
The plan is for people to arrive in Indianapolis on Saturday the 22nd, spend the night in NE Indy area, and then drive to Muncie (30 minutes) Sunday morning. Scott is working on the hotel arrangements and some fill in activities for Saturday afternoon and evening.
We have approximately 25 cars scheduled to attend. Even with 50 cars you'll get as much track time as you want. In addition to Cobras we do have a few true race cars scheduled to make a few runs.
