It's supposed to be the only nice day of the week. No rain, lows in the mid-60's at night, good air.
I hope to be there and see what I can muster w/ the new combo!
It's gonna take a few runs just to learn how to launch w/ the new power, but only one way to find out!

test and tune gates open @ 8 am. there are other events, (jr. dragster, etc.), so you don't run all day. How long, I'm not sure...

Steve, 75 is a bit large for an N/A engine.
Was weerie about the 70 for my car.

But anyways, had planned on making it up there. But couldn't for fun reasons.
Caster/Camber plate install went, lets say Very Friggin Well.
Started at like 1-1:30 ish
Finished around...6-7?
Those rubber bushings are so very very bad... Strut kept compressing and blah.
So anyhoo got my polyurethane spring isolators in, and cc plates.
Had some rubbing issues(main reason i couldnt make it) and somewhat got them resolved.
Hope to make it up maybe Friday, if not next wednesday then.

A repspectable engine builder actually recommended it to me. I was weary too about it. I ran 13.4 @ 104.6. I was having serious heat issues with the car. Running at 210. The car wouldn't idle right. I think it's finally time for a tune.

AFPR and tune. Go to Performance Dyno and see if you can score those MT DR's while you're at it.
Instant low 12's!!!

What size? And for that price... new?
Unless theyre massive 17+
Because the ones for the 15" rims are about that price or cheaper.

I e-mailed them this is what I got back


"The test and tune continues all day in and around the other stuff. It's $25 on Test session days to race ($10 to just watch)"
