Need recommendations for hard-core drag forums: - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Can you think of any hard-core drag forums?

Yellow bullet has closed their registration(?) Can't figure out why?

ClassRacer has rejected my application---because it doesn't meet their "requirements?" (again---???)

If you can figure out how to contact Yellow Bullet without using e-mail to figure out why they aren't accepting new registration, that would be helpful.

Don't know about classracer but Monte had to close the YB because the place was growing expotentially and it was costing him a fortune in bandwidth. Not to mention the problems allowing the riff-raff in unchecked. A site that size takes on a mind of it's own and is almost uncontrolable. After it became nothing but a porn-fest I only go there for the articles <grins>

Nastyz28 has a lot of heavy hitters, and lots of serious racers in the Comp section.

Super73 hangs with some heavy hitters. Know he has some ideas also.

What about SpeedTalk? I found a few threads worth checking out on that site too.

*C-10 simplex* · 01-19-2011, 06:47 PM

Thanks to all for the suggestions and the heads-up concerning YB.

i just got rejected by CompetitionPlus. i've sent them an email asking why. i'm thinking maybe the reason i got rejected by both sites is due to my yahoo email---too generic?

i've never had this much difficulty trying to register for any webforums.

i'll try the other suggestions. The reason why i want/need to go hard-core is because i've basically decided that my next car will be tube-frame in lieu of the previous plan of taking a stock chassis car/truck and running as fast as possible with it and then moving to a tube-frame racer.

Bizzare i tell you.

Chevelles.com has a bunch of heavy hitters. Nastyz28 is a good one and speed talk is another. Theturboforums is a good one. Stevesnovasite.

There are a few drag racers here and a thread for talking drag racing and nothing specific may net you some good info. I have been doing it over 35 years and have built lots of cars over the years from all round tube door cars to street cars. I have a dragster now that runs 7.40's. I will be happy to help any way I can with info.
