I am sure some of you have already heard that the race this Friday for the Ultimate Outlaw spot ended with Sergio Jimenez, tagging the guardrail. The good news is that he walked away without a problem. The car on the other hand will be needing some cosmetic work. So it will he heading to the body shop asap. Don't want to sit here and speculate on what caused the Lumina to make a sharp turn to the right. But I will say that this is at least the 3rd or 4th car do this at the same spot. Things could also have been much worse had Henry Thomae's "Overtaker" Nova, not spun hard at the line. Imagine if Henry had been right next to the Lumina as it shot across into the spectator side lane. Looks like we dodged a bad one and everyone walked away counting their blessings. Here is the video of the race with a slow motion replay of the crash.

Here is a pretty cool addition to our "Blast From The Past" series. These pictures are courtesy of our friends over at RGVOLDCARS.COM. These pics highlight the roots of our sport. Back when men were men and rules were virtually non-existent. The majority of the pics are of a time before the NHRA came in and set rules to keep people safe. Some of these creations are truly Frankenstien-ish in nature. Some of them are down right scary..LOL! Check out the gallery for more cool pics in this "Blast From The Past" update.





When one engine just won't do! Got to love that roll cage


Remember this scene from The Munsters? When Grandpa raced Herman.


Back in the day when a big 'ole rock served fine as ballast weight.


Wouldn't you have loved to be there when monsters like this ran down the 1/4 mile?

Date Posted: 21:45:58 08/02/10 Mon

Got the race for the Real Street Spot done on Friday. Fred and JP went at it around 10pm. The race looked like it was going to be close, but JP had some problems. Fred, in the spectator lane, didn't know that and stayed in it for all the glory. Unfortunately, Fred let it all hang out and went an 11.47, under the 11.50 index, giving the race to JP. Congrats to JP, our new spot holder in the Real Street spot. Here is the video from the race.





After the race was done, Fred asked me what it would take for him to take the Limited Street spot? I told him I would prefer he race someone for it. But, seeing as to how no one is racing anyway, I told him he could have if he could back up his last time. So Fred went out there, let it rip and went even faster, knocking out another sub 11.50 pass. So that makes Fred our new Limited Street spot holder....congrats.

I wanted to give you all an update on the spots. I went ahead and changed Limited Street to an 11.00 Index. In hopes that we can get more races going. I don't want to get into the rules right now, but I will say that Limited Street is basically the same rules as Real Street. Cars have to be tagged and legal for street use. There is no tire limit, but cars must be street cars.

We also changed Pro Street to a 10.00 Index class. Rules are the same as the other two classes, cars must be street type cars with headlights, working taillights, turn signals and such. They don't how ever have to be street legal. Again, no tire limit in this class and cars can run open headers. Hope to see some challenges to this one soon.

I want to invite you guy's to give us some feedback on what you would like to see in the rules for these classes, without getting too crazy. If you have something to say, post it up. We want to hear your opinion. What do you think about True 10.5? Which right now is an unlimited ET class. And what about Ultimate Outlaw? Post up, let's see what you all are thinking.

This update covers the last races for the month of July. Can you believe we are in August already? Man, time sure is flying by. Looked like action was picking up on Friday night. There pits were absolutely packed with racers and test & tuners. Hope this is a sign of things to come. Hey, did you all know Friday night was Ford -vs- Chevy Night? Yeah, me neither...LOL! Too bad nobody from the track called me, we could have set up some Ford -vs- Chevy match races. Here is the track action video. It's about 6 minutes long and includes and awesome music track by Dream Theatre. We also have the picture gallery compliments of the TDR crew. Check it out..........

"7/31/10 MIRELES CRUISE IN PICS"

[ Edit | View ]

Date Posted: 09:17:55 08/02/10 Mon

We were getting the cars ready to head out to the Mireles Fruit Stand on Saturday when my neighbor's little boy came over. His name is "Polito" and Saturday was his birthday. He had just turned four and he told his Mommy he was old enough to go cruising with us...LOL! So we went ahead and added him to the TDR Crew. Here is a picture of the little guy riding in the Wagabu on his way to Weslaco. With the wagon riding on 4.56 gears right now, we took it nice and slow. So slow that Polito fell asleep..haha. Don't know how he did it with all the noise from the mufflers and gear noise. But it looks like it was not bothering him at all.





Here is a picture of him standing in front of one of his favorite cars at the show. Looks like the kid has a taste for Mopar's and Ford's...oh boy! Polito is always at our house, watching us work on the cars and asking if he can help. Looks like we got ourselves another Hot Rodder. Guy's, this is what the cruise in's are all about. Bring out the little one's and show them the rides. Our next step for Polito will be to take him out to the race track. Who know's, maybe I can convince his Dad to get him a Jr. Dragster...LOL! That would be cool.





The Wagabu has been out and about lately. With the show in Weslaco being the farthest driven yet, due to the 4.56 gears. I have an overdrive transmission being built already and we will be changing out the gears soon. Other than that, the Wagabu is running great. We dropped the engine in and have not touched it except for an oil change since we got it back from Deleon Racing Engine's. It run's nice and cool even with the factory radiator. That will have to be changed once we connect the A/C back up. But with back-to-school going on, we will have to hold off a bit on working on it. But we are not done with it yet.









Hope you all enjoyed the Update. Here are more pics from the Mireles Fruit Stand Cruise In on Saturday. Dudes, clean up your cars and bring them out to the cruise in. We might not be able to afford racing right now. But we can certainly afford to spend some time with our families and some cool street machines. The next Cruise In is this coming Saturday at Colonial Village on North 10th St. in McAllen, Texas. See you all out there.

Going out cruising tonight? Or maybe you are just looking for a place to hang out and show off your ride? Then head out to Taco-N-Madre in San Juan, Tx. The owners of Taco-N-Madre are inviting everyone to come on out and check out their great menu. Don't know about this week, but last week they were giving out free beer...LOL! Seriously though, Taco-N-Madre is a unique taqueria in that it is a drive in like Stars or Sonic. You don't have to get out of your car to enjoy some awesome food. All hotrodders are welcome at Taco-N-Madre, every Thursday night for their weekly cruise in. Check them out and tell them Texasdragracing.com sent you.

With things going so slow right we figured we would go back to the archives to see what was going on at this time in past years. Henry is right, it does slow down around the Summer months. But never has it slowed down as much as it has this year. The 2010 racing season just seems worst than most. Let's go back to 2008 and 2009 to see what was going on around this time last year.

Here are a ton of pics from last Saturday's South Texas College Weslaco, Show & Shine. Let me tell you, Saturday was one hot son of a gun. But we still had a great time at the car show. There were 39 cars registered but over 50 cars showed up. We got to help out Xavier Leal, judge the cars and hand out trophies to the winners. It was our first time judging cars and it is a lot harder than I thought it would be. Especially when all of the cars were super nice. Guy's, bring out your cars to the shows. They are free to enter and are always for a good cause. This show was to collect care packages for the troops fighting overseas. Overall it was an awesome day. Enjoy the pics and see you all at the next show.

Man, am I running behind or what? Sorry dudes, just been busy gathering media to post and working on the wagon. I am happy to report that it is now moving under it's own power. We took it for it's first maiden voyage yesterday. Can't drive it too far cause it's not all legal yet. But we plan on taking it out to a cruise in on Saturday. Well, here are the pics from the Texas Tops Cruise In from the 10th. Stay tuned because I am going to try and get caught up tonight.

Hate to do it but it's gotta go. The trailer has everything you need. Built in cabinets, black and white checkered floor, lighting (inside and outside), and even A/C. It can handle up to 10,000 lbs. Asking $12,500 O.B.O. if anyone is interested just call to the shop at 956-384-9200 or 956-578-5433. I got the title in hand.

Want to let everyone know that the track WILL NOT BE CLOSING!!!....I have seen posts on boards including this one that the track was going to close for the Summer. This is not the case. The race track will remain open all Summer long. The track was going to close for repaving. But conflicting schedules with the paving company prevented this from happening. Hope this clears everything up! See you all out there!!!.....

Congratulation's to Fred and his wicked LSx powered S10. Fred went head to head with Tony Torres and his boosted Stang for the Real Street spot this past Friday. It was a slip and slide pedal fest till the end, with Fred coming out on top. Good job dudes. You all put on an awesome race for the fans. Now lets see who has the guts to take on Fred.

Finally fired up the engine in the Wagabu today. And I got to say, it sounds a lot better sitting in the car..LOL! Not bad for a small cam, pump gas 408 cube small block. I just can't thank Deleon Racing Engines enough for all of the hard work they put into this engine. This is not at all the same engine I brought them. It is a totally new animal that idles great, fires up easily and will make people do a double take when they hear it coming down the road. Here is a little video we put together on initial start up, open headers...heh. Stay tuned for more updates.

A drag racing driver ran through a containment area at the end of a track and died of head injuries after crashing his alcohol-fueled funny car at a “high rate of speed” during a qualifying round at the NHRA SuperNationals at a New Jersey raceway Friday, state police said.

Neal Parker, 58, of Millville, N.J., crashed at Raceway Park in Old Bridge, state police Sgt. Stephen Jones said. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

Parker was entered in the Top Alcohol Funny Car competition. The crash occurred shortly before noon.

I think he crashed at the same track as Scott Kalitta. Folks, it can happen at any track to anyone at anytime.
Prayers to his family.

WOW I just read this too;
Mark Niver, 60, died at Pacific Raceways on Sunday after his Top Alcohol dragster ran off the end of the racetrack and crashed into netting. Niver, who owned a machine shop in Phoenix and had been racing more than 40 years, won his semifinal race and then died after his parachutes did not deploy at the finish line while he was traveling at 271 mph. His race car skidded through the gravel at the end of the track and then buckled when it hurtled into netting.
We hope his last memory was seeing his win light, Demke said.
