Looking into setting this up Justin, but looking into renting Jackson out for a few hours for our selves. It will be a saturday so traveling shouldn't be a problem for most. We will see what we can do and I will keep yall up to date on the renting of Jackson.Looking at some time in June though.

Is this going to be a friendly grudge thing where you set up your own race or it going to have a bracket and whatever happens happens? I would be interested in doing some friendly grudge stuff. Maybe the turbo coupe and Diggler or something real close in times like that. I don't think it would be fair for us to run some of the more street friendly cars.

Not me. Went to the dyno last night and still seeing the same issues. Tried several different things while on the dyno but still had the same end result. Loosing boost when blower speed reaches 55K rpm. Might be looking at a rebuild from procharger soon.

Ford vs. Chevy would be cool. As long as it's fun and nobody gets ill about it. I don't know about you guys, but I like to race and I don't need money on the line to do it or talk trash about somebody else's ride to get them pissed off enough to race. I've lost as many races as I've won so who cares.

Yea, it was used. Found out today its 9 years old! Called Procharger and Bob @ Exotic Performance Plus and explained they symptoms. I consider him to be one of the Procharger subject matter experts. Both said from they symptoms they think its belt slip up top and that I should be running 100% meth instead of 50/50.

I'm going to take their advice and swap belts for one that is 1" shorter and run 100% meth next time. It would be great if that fixed it seeing as how that will only cost about $30 as opposed to $700+ for a rebuild. Could "possibly" be on the dyno again Monday.

Not going to get my hopes up this time.

mike: you going to invite more than the CHO crowd right b/c to rent the track is $3k or more the last time we checked and that was if the track would eve talk to us.
You will want to get alot of cars there or tag along with an existing group already renting.
back in the hayday GAFBA got invited to run at Carolina for SVT day, that was fun, that group has now moved their track day to the Rock since Carolina did not want to work with them any more.

I dont want to be a party pooper on a track day but been involved with them for a LONG time and unless you get LOTS of people to prepay it never works, someone is left with the debt.

I enjoy the track days, even if it is a 3hr+ drive but I am a bit wierd when it comes to racing....we used to drive to SDR for 2 track days a year. Russ has towed to SDR on a TH night with the Rattletrap just to make some new records (LOL). Just have to want to support the group.

BTW-I will be out of town June 12-19th HA!

This has been looked into; price is going to be much cheaper for a established car club. I think around $500 bucks.

Mine is Faster............................................ ...........PERIOD................LOL .. now if you wanna hide at the track then do that... (please read below my AVATAR)

Top speed faster yeah you are right, but seriously racing is done on the track not street, I have a family to look after and take care of. No need to go to jail or die even, a hell of a lot greater chance doing that on the street. But when ever you want to race at the track and not hide behind some lame ass excuse I will come up one day.

I think the mecham still gets at least 20 too with casual driving. Whenever the bugs get worked out (or IF EVER) it should be in the 6's with a half decent 60' on the stock gear if the that rear holds out. Thats a big IF too.

The clutch is only a problem if the car is hotlapped. For a single pass when its not extremely hot, it does fine. Casual driving, it does fine also. When the car is making 700+ all the time, I will need a twin disc though.

No me and David run close to the same times. We ran at union at the last trck day but my clutch slipped and I didn't run balls out past 60'! I think it b good run. I think it b good between foxrod and yours too even though u consitant in 6's now. It still b good. It's not about racing to win for me. I don't like beating the car to death for a time slip.

Nemesis claims 7.5 on motor last year. Might be enough to knock out the KFC mobile on motor.....
Never backed that run up.. I think I staged the back tires on that one.. Average was a 7.9 witha 2.0 60ft consistently. Nothing to write home about. Weak at every level.

Gary's gonna get nervous winding out 2nd gear and still being behind the BlackBoard. 3rd gear is definately a miss. Lt1 is victorious.

Dont flatter yourself Mikey.. youve shown nobody anything to be worried about.. Me Butthurt? Pshhhh. This would be your only chance at beating my bucket.. We all know you would get a Wal-Mart parking lot put on you in Mexico.

A 680hp cobra (Butch) thought he was going to put bus lengths on me in Mexico a year or two ago and he was the one that got it, but I never said I would beat you in Mexico or the track. But Gary we will see you Friday man for a good race. Later

Well someone is definitely going home disappointed. Who's gonna be leaving doorless? I think a thread needs to be created with a poll to keep the traffic up this week.

x2!! I had to sift through this whopper of a thread to find the goodies, when caught wind of Union meet
