*****************2nd Annual Subaru Feed and Speed********************

 

It is going to be on Saturday June 18th at Beaver Springs Dragway. We're going to meet for breakfast in Selinsgrove PA and then head over to Beaver Springs Dragway for some 1/4 mile fun. The cost will be $30 to race but spectators are free. Race time is 10:00 am- 4:00 pm.

 

Track address, for those that aren't coming to the breakfast or are late and need to Mapquest, is as follows:

 

Beaver Springs Dragway

RD 1 Box 34

Beaver Springs, PA 17812

 

 

*********************UPDATED BREAKFAST INFORMATION***************

 

Breakfast is going to be on Saturday June 18th from 8:00-9:30 am at Perkins Restaurant & Bakery in Selinsgrove PA. They do not take reservations so that is why we have an hour and half to give everyone a chance to show up and eat before we head over to BSD and start having fun! The address, for those of you that need to Mapquest to get directions, is as follows:

 

327 S. US Highway 11 and 15

Selinsgrove, PA 17870

 

************************************************** ************

 

************************HOTEL INFORMATION***********************

 

Selinsgrove Area:

Comfort Inn -- 570-374-8880

Days Inn -- 570-743-1111

Golden Arrow -- 570-743-1611

Phillips -- 570-743-3100

I'm hoping to have a couple different brackets depending apon how many come to race and the types of Subaru's they're driving. It's all in fun and I want to keep it light but I want it to be fair and close too. So if enough cars show up it will be something like this.

 

Old Gen. Subarus:

 

F/I (turbo) class. This will include DL-T's, GL-T's, XT-T, ect..

 

N/A class. This will include all O.G. carbureted and fuel injected engines.

 

New Gen. Subarus:

 

2.2 N/A. This will include all Legacy and Impreza models with the EJ22

 

2.5 N/A. This will include all Legacy, Impreza and Forester models with the EJ25

 

2.0 F/I. This will include the USDM WRX and EJ20T conversions and any JDM 2.0 F/I engine. Any Impreza RS-T 2.5 F/I conversions will be in this class as well.

 

2.2 F/I. This will include the 91-94 Legacy turbo and any other model running an EJ22T as well as any EJ22 F/I conversions.

 

2.5 F/I This will include the Forester XT, the Baja XT, the new Legacy 2.5GT and any non-STI EJ257 conversions.

 

F/I unlimited. This will include the USDM STI and any heavily modded

(280+ CHP) EJ20T, EJ22T or EJ257.

 

This is best case scenario if a lot of people show. Most likely it will end up being a F/I class and a N/A class.

 

 

Here is some safety info from the BSD website. This only applies to those that are going to race and I'm not sure how strictly they inforce some of these rules, like the drive shaft strap. I've ran there before and don't remember them checking for 'em. You definitely will need to wear pants, shoes, socks, t-shirt to the middle of arm no matter how fast you are, and have a Snell 95 helmet if you're faster then 13.99.

 

All cars and bikes must meet IHRA safety standards.

Here is a short list of minimums.

All cars must have a radiator catch can, all wheel lugs, battery

hold down, seat belts. In short, no unsafe cars.

If your car runs 13.99 or faster (100 MPH) you must also have a

drive shaft loop.

If you run aftermarket wheels and run 11.99 and faster, you

need long wheel studs. ($15 at speed shops)

If you run 11.49 and faster (115 MPH) you must have a roll bar.

> As a driver you must have long pants, real shoes and socks,

t-shirt to the middle of the arm.

At 13.99 seconds you are required to wear a Snell 95

approved helmet.

At 11.49 seconds you are required to have a SFI Jacket.

Hot d%mn! Maybe I'll get to use that raincheck from last year. Does a car need to be street legal to run there? Can I remove the steering and suspension since they only add weight for drag racing? Would love to see what the racer will do. :grin::grin::grin: Gotta check with the schedule masters.

These are the only safety rules that BSD lists:

 

All cars and bikes must meet IHRA safety standards.

Here is a short list of minimums.

All cars must have a radiator catch can, all wheel lugs, battery

hold down, seat belts. In short, no unsafe cars.

> As a driver you must have long pants, real shoes and socks,

t-shirt to the middle of the arm.

approved helmet.

At 11.49 seconds you are required to have a SFI Jacket.

 

I hope you can make it. LMK.

Cool man, didn't think it would be all that tough. Lets just hope it doesn't look like it'll be in the 13s as there isn't much safety stuff in her yet. I'll talk to Hocrest and see what his thoughts are. I think we both have a free day there anyways.

Sounds good :D

 

The way I read the rules we are covered safety wise down to 11.49

 

If we beat that it will be well worth just getting the one run in:brow:

I love SVX's, I really want to see this car. :)

 

I know I'll do my best but as my wife is 4 days late of her due date I can't be 100% til I know how much free time I'll get.

So what class are you gonna put our SVX in? Of course it doesn't fit in any catagory there to say the least. It'll still be there, I plan on making Dave run as I'm not a fan of straight line driving. I'm sure it'll have some issues as I'm not about to burn up our Kumho's on the take off so a mixed bag of crappy street tires and FWD are not gonna start real good.

It depends on how many people show up as to wheather or not we have mutliple classes in N/A. It may end up just being that all the N/A's are in a class together. If we do get some other H6's there then we'll have a class just for you guys. Otherwise you'll just be in N/A.

Please don't show up, Please don't show up, Please don't show up. JK. I'd love to see a ton of cars there! Don't know if we can make breakfast though as unloading is a 1/2 hour process and all.
