Event notes:
- -This year we are focusing on '93-98 Supras, as
we don't want to spread ourselves too thin. In coming
years, we'll have both better awards AND more classes
for MK1-MK3's. Sorry to do this, but I've learned
that there is much better success specializing in
a niche when trying something new like this.
- -We are implementing a 'points' system where participants
earn a certain amount of points depending on what
position they place compared to other Supras in their
class in any given event (drag/dyno/show-n-shine.)
Every Supra that runs at the drag strip, dynos, or
competes in the show-n-shine will automatically be
entered in the Shootout/points race for free.
Classes for participants:
- -MK1-MK3 collective class (ALL '79-'92 Supras)
- -Non-turbo
- -Stock twin turbos
- -One power adder (1 of the following: Upgraded turbo(s),
nitrous, aftermarket transmission [TH/SP400, etc]...GASOLINE
ONLY)
- -Two power adders (2 of the following: Upgraded
turbo(s), nitrous, aftermarket transmission [TH/SP400,
etc]...GASOLINE ONLY)
- -Unlimited (Anything goes...methanol, unlimited
power adders, non-factory type transmission/rear-end/chassis,
etc.)
Awards/prizes:
- -1 random person staying at the hotel gets their
choice of $250 worth of parts from SpeedForSale.com
OR a cash prize
- -2 random people participating in ALL THREE '93-98
events (drag/dyno/show-n-shine) gets their choice
of $250 worth of parts from SpeedForSale.com OR a
cash prize
- -The winner of each event in each class gets an
engraved trophy (courtesy of Anderson-Audio.com)
- -The top points winner in each class (except Unlimited)
wins a $50 gift certificate from Jeff Watson at Champion
Toyota/www.TRDperformance.com, along with an 'Best
in X class' engraved trophy (courtesy of AAP.) Unlimited
class does not have a prize this year other than bragging
rights and any side bets that are placed. Next year
we hope to have a nice prize for the winner of the
Unlimited class.

Schedule:
**TO PARTICIPATE IN DRAG DAY, DYNO DAY, OR THE SHOW-N-SHINE,
YOU MUST PRE-REGISTER TO BE GUARANTEED A SPOT! You can
reserve your spot at the hotel, drag strip, dyno, or show-n-shine
by going here--> (www.SupraShootout.com/register.html).
Any events that still aren't filled by Friday, Nov. 5
will be filled on a first-come first-serve basis at the
hotel or event.**
Friday, November 5 (Drag strip):
-Event starting time: 7pm (gates open at 6pm)
-Dragstrip info & pics--> www.AtlantaDragway.com
-Dragstrip location via MapQuest.com can be viewed by
BY CLICKING HERE!
-The hotel check-in time is 3pm, and I will be there at
that time along with others. At 5:30pm, some of us will
leave the hotel and head up the interstate to 'Atlanta
Dragway' in Commerce (gates open at 6pm.) You do not have
to caravan over with us, but remember that we start the
competition at 7pm. At 6:30pm the staging lanes open,
and you will have 30 minutes of 'Test-n-tune' to dial-in
your car before the event starts at 7pm. We did not rent
the track out this year, but plan to in the coming years
if this event goes well. I have spoken with the track's
general manager several times, and gotten permission to
have our own staging lane and are working on scheduling
the rounds into the night. We are probably going to run
4 Supras back-to-back, then after 10 minutes or so we
run 4 more Supras, etc. Also, you can run as much as you
want in the regular staging lanes between rounds or after
the competition is over. There is 104 unleaded, and 110/112/116/etc
leaded gasoline available at the drag strip. The track's
general manager said to let everyone know that full NHRA
rules apply for various time brackets; CLICK
HERE FOR THE RULE BOOK (must have Adobe Acrobat to
view; download at Adobe.com).
Anderson Audio & Performance will have their 48' race
trailer at the track to assist those who break down while
racing. Speed For Sale.com will also have a 20' enclosed
car hauler on hand to haul back any cars that break and
are unable to be fixed at the strip.
After the drag strip closes, you have the option of going
back to the hotel for some parking lot/lobby socializing
or joining us about a mile from the hotel at ' www.Jillians.com
' (similar to Dave & Buster's.) Jillian's offers 62,000
square feer of food/drink, high-tech video games, bowling,
pool, dance floor, several sports bars/lounges, ping pong,
outdoor patio, etc. For those of you who would like to
have some drinks at dinner and don't want to worry about
driving back to the hotel, there is a FREE hotel van/taxi
service that we have lined up for us to use.
Saturday, November 6 (Dyno event, show-n-shine, group
dinner):
-Event starting time: 8am
-Dyno info & pics--> www.DynoLab.NET
-Dyno & Show-n-shine location via MapQuest can be viewed
by BY
CLICKING HERE!
-After having breakfast at the hotel around 7am, we will
leave and caravan to DynoLab. Those of you who don't want
to get up that early can request to dyno after 10am and
we'll put you toward the back of the group. Every person
who participates in the dyno event gets 3 dyno pulls,
a 8"x10" glossy picture with your car at the top and your
best dynograph at the bottom, and a CD with your 3 dyno
pulls on it! For this event, we will have Arthur running
the dyno with Mike Donahue and one other guy helping strap
and unstrap cars down. We will be able to dyno about 35
cars or so on Saturday if all goes smoothly, and if there
are more than 35 people registered to dyno then we'll
come back Sunday morning and finish then. Their dyno will
read up to 1500 rear wheel horsepower, and rumor has it
that a certain upcoming Supra may come very close to pegging
it!
While everyone is dynoing, there will also be a show-n-shine
held in the parking lot of 'Sidelines Grille/Bar' next
to the dyno. We have a large section of the parking lot
roped off for us for the day. Also, 'Sidelines' has many
large TVs (college football), pool tables, video games,
a large bar, and even a vollyball net in the back! We
have a professional bouncer/security guard (Eric) to work
the 'Show-n-Shine' event to help insure everyone's car
is safe while the rest of us are dyno'ing. Eric has worked
large car gatherings before, so he knows how to handle
any situation that may arise. Each person will have about
15 minutes to make their 3 pulls once they are strapped
on the dyno (timed.) If anything goes wrong with your
car on the dyno, it must be off after your time is up
regardless if you fix the issue or not. We will leave
the dyno after everyone is done dynoing (11pm at the latest
because of the noise ordinance,) and head back to the
hotel. After returning to the hotel that night, we'll
then caravan over to Jillian's once again for another
group gathering.
Sunday, November 7 (Finish dyno event if over 35 cars
get scheduled to dyno):
-Starting time: 9am
-If we have more than 35 or so people register to dyno,
then we will go back over to 'Dynolab' at 9am on Sunday
morning and finish things up. If not, we'll meet up in
the parking lot at check-out time so people can form caravans
of Supras headed in their direction, go get lunch, or
whatever you want to do.
Next year, we'll probably run Road Atlanta on Sunday,
and have 2 dynos (1 in-ground and 1 mobile) set up to
use on Saturday. Anderson Audio & Performance has ties
with Road Atlanta, and may be able to get us better rates.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Major notes:
- -www.SupraShootout.com is the main website for
this event. Here, you will find more information including
who's coming/participating, pictures, and other things
that we couldn't fit here. Be sure to go there and
SIGN-UP
HEREif you are coming to this event and bringing
your Supra, even if you don't enter an event. This
allows us to keep track of who is participating in
what event(s), lets you find others in your area who
are attending so you can caravan together driving
here, etc.
- -HI FIVE Productions will be recording with 3 cameras
at these events to compile a DVD for us (if we get
enough pre-orders, info coming soon.)
- -There will periodic updates to this event, so this
post will ALWAYS be kept up to date with changes.
I'll also post up a separate note of the update. One
of the main updates coming soon is the EXACT rules
& restrictions for each class.
- -If the event turns out well this year, a Road Atlanta
track day will 99.9% be a part of next year's event
(www.RoadAtlanta.com),
as well as renting out the large banquet room at "Jillian's"
to host a more organized group dinner. We just want
to mainly concentrate on the car events this year,
and work out the other particulars for next year's
event.
In Closing:
If anyone has any suggestions, please post them up or
contact me via AOL instant messenger (JeremyJBlackwell),
eMail (Blackwell@SpeedForSale.com),
or phone (770-777-4774.) I look forward to meeting everyone
and seeing some new Supras!
