Hey guys (in particular our JGC SRT8's)....over on the cherokee site were trying to set up an American Muscle SUV Vs High Tech Import SUVs at Englishtown, NY for the begginning of next season. Here are the details below: I think I can set this event up for early next season at Etown when the track opens up again (Maybe February or March 2009 when we still have the cold weather season). But first we need to know if there's enough interest for me to proposed this to Walter (an official at the Etown I know, he has set up other events for us in the past and I'm sure he can set up an event if I can present an list to him from all the vehicles discussed on this thread). This is what I have in mind... Trail Blazers... (all size motors, including the 6) Jeep Grand Cherokee (all size motors, including the 6) 2005 and up models ONLY VS Mercedes SUV (all size motors) Porsche Cayenne (all size motors) BMW SUVs (all size motors) 2005 and up models ONLY We can have the following classes set up. - 6 cyl heads up - 8cyl heads up - 6 cyl brackets - 8 cyl brackets And a bracket King of the Hill of all the winners from all 4 classes. I don't want to limit it only to TBSS and SRT8s and same thing for the V8 imports as we might not get enough count to set this up. The more SUVs involved the more chances for this event to happen, so the 6 cyl and other V8s are welcome to sign up. If you guys have other ideas to set this event up post your thought here. But lets get it done. I'll need help... I'm going to need the TBSS guys to post this on the TBSS boards (you can copy this thread). Same thing for others here that frequent other boards of the imports being discussed here, we got to let them know and get a list going for them too. Who can do this? Remind them... Only 2005 and up models and all size motors will be welcome (if this event takes place). Previous production models can come too and run in the time trial lanes but not for this event (in case we have buddies with older models interested in coming too). Also, it would be nice to have some vendors be part of this for some trophy prices for the winners of each class and some cash prices as well. But we'll get to that later, first we need to see if there's enough interest. I'll be talking to Walter (from Etown to start this idea going with them) and I'll keep you guys updated. Everyone with a Jeep WK 3.7L, 4.7L, 5.7L or 6.1L post and I'll update the list on this post. Current Jeep Grand Cherokees signed up...(add yourself if your in guys!!) 1. QBNKID - 6.1L 2. Crookster - 5.7L 3. Get$$$Man - 6.1L 4. DevssrT - 6.1L 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. And here is the link to the direct thread for the Cherokee SRT website: http://www.cherokeesrt8.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19870 Any further questions just leave them here on the thread, the Cherokee Thread, or PM me. Thanks, Ryan :future:
I would be all over this if it was closer to me! I work in Spartanburg SC at the BMW plant that builds X5 and X6's. I have been trying to get some of the guys that lease X5's to race just to see how it stacks up against the SRT8.
