    Mopars at the Strip 2014?

    Anyone going to MATS this year? I'll be there, although I hope the weather cooperates better than last year.

    Really tempting and I've always wanted to check this out. Less than a month away though. Hrm...G.Love and Special Sauce in Boulder or MATS?

    Only car I could drive is my only running 16v though; a Caliber SRT-4.

    I had a good time this year, which is mostly because the weather cooperated. I totally blew it in the picture taking department, but I did take this grainy video of Alan's 12.57 pass vs. Boyd's 12.11. Next year i'm definitely bringing something to race, either the R/T or the Cuda.

    Ha, hardly Bill, I'm nowhere near 11.70's. Mine is a Roadrace truck, likely I will not be 1320'ing it again for a loooong time.


    BTW, can you post up your avatar pic full size?? I want it!

    I had what turned out to be a good weekend this year. I had a heating problem on the way up but it never bothered me during the event. It was rather warm this year but the car was pretty consistent and never gave me a problem. I red lit in the first round against the black CSX but I bought back in ($40 buys a second chance for first round losers) and went on to win. My best time was 11.99 at 115 mph.That was good enough to be fast qualifier but they stopped paying a prize for that so it was worth nothing.

    Re: Mopars at the Strip 2014?

    I found a few other pics I took of the event. Hard to believe (or maybe not) that the 'other' Rampage there is almost 700 lbs lighter than mine

    Interesting thing about this Rampage that the builder (old guy in the pic) told me. It's a famous truck, anyone of us that's paged thru old DC catalogues has seen it before. nay guesses who the PO was??
