From tmccc.org;

The TMCCC is the largest club against club racing series in the country and possibly the world. It was founded by a group of muscle car owners that liked to race their cars but didn't want to race in a weekly bracket series. Soon after the first few events, more clubs in the area started showing interest and before you knew it, the series had grown into 9 events covering most of north Texas and Oklahoma. With car counts exceeding 200 at many of the races, we have proven that muscle cars are here to stay.

Every club races for points to see who are the true champions in the muscle car world and a driver reward program tracks individual drivers points to see who is the best in each class. Each year there is a rewards banquet where the top clubs and drivers are honored and presented with very nice trophies and prizes. The overall points champion also receives free entry to all of the next years races.

Barring any last minute changes this will be this years race dates.

March 10 Kennedale

March 24 Ennis

April 7 Denton

April 21 Crandall

May 5 Denton

June 2 Kennedale

Sept 8 Ennis

Sept 29 Ardmore

Oct 13 Redline

Oct 27 Kennedale

Anyone and everyone welcome to watch and/or race! More details to follow!

DFWDakotas races under the Cowtown Mopar banner and I am planning on racing each of these days. Last year I placed 1st once and 2nd twice out of 8 races I competed in.

Post up if you are interested in racing this season!

Awesome!! Glad to see ya'll getting in on the action.

That's is one of my most favorite clubs/ events. I went to a few of them back in the early 2000's. Hanging out with the Dallas Mopar club via Wayne and Rodney Taylor.

Sure wish I could make a few events this year. But not likely!!

They used to race at our track here in Temple. But looks like they have much better venues now.

I hope so cause that's where I came in first place last year and made the 2 hour drive so much better!

This was posted as a heads up and when the official schedule gets posted I will update. TMCCC.org usually has one lang haul race in a season or has had the last three years I have been racing in it.

Plan on taking the truck down to the paint shop tomorrow, if all goes well. I'm gonna pull the trigger and leave it there. Then after that install the caltracs, and new tranny and done! Get some seat time before Nats so I can waste Brad!

Might have to put the 360 back in blue to make the first one but sure sounds like fun. Good way to knock the cobwebs off. Looks like I would be in the super muscle or king muscle class.

If I get my supercharger installed (and tuned) I would probably be in that class as well, been running Street Muscle last three years.

bob97sst
05-07-2013, 03:42 AM
Next race is not till June 2!

Most Daks (no Durangos) at any TMCCC racing events so far have been 4 racing and 1 spectating.

They have classes for all kinds including stock which last week had 4 stock Hondas laying down a blistering 13 seconds down the 1/8 mile track.

Look forward to seeing more of you out here, even if to watch!

I'll be there Bob! Got to adjust the TV cable on the new tranny. I'm getting the WOT issue from 1st to 2nd (high rev). Going to play with the cable a little and get it figured out. When it does shift into 2nd it hits it HARD, chirping the 390s out back.

Do you want to meet up before we head out? Is Randy and Mike (iirc) going to be heading out also?

steelhorse5778
05-24-2013, 01:34 PM
Me and Randy are always there and besides I will have my trailer by then so I gotta go just to make sure she pulls ok before Nats. :)

nothing personal but if we are still a go on Saturday at 5:00 I'm headed to Ardmore and spending the night. So I won't be rolling out with anybody unless you wanna spend the night to.

User
09-25-2013, 11:06 PM
Saturday at 5? I thought it was Sunday? I have to work Saturday night so I won't be heading to Ardmore until Sunday morning, what time do the gates open?

steelhorse5778
09-26-2013, 12:14 AM
8 or 9 but with me dragging a trailer i don't wanna drive in the morning for 2 hours then race and then drive for 2 hours. I'd rather wake up at 7 take a shower go have a complimentary breakfast and then head to the track.

Got it! So 7am sharp. I'll be there, do they sale fuel at the track? I don't want to overfill at the station and run on 1/2 tank of gas..

09-26-2013, 06:06 PM
Yes but it's all 100 octane and higher. there is a shell station just around the corner from the track.

09-28-2013, 10:47 PM
Haven't left yet trying to decide if it's worth spending the night just in case it is cancelled. Mark the TMCCC president said we are a go but to check back on the forum in the morning before leaving just in case so i'm debating what to do.

User
