i dont think baglock will mind at all, we've all ridden with him, i dont think he'll care! and he is the best driver out of all of us!

im running, baglock is running, and a few others, but you wont be able to ride with me unless i get out of novice! novice drivers arent allowed to have passengers unless they are an instructor, or someone from a higher class! i havent decided yet if im gonna go to my class or not, but im leaning towards staying in novice for at least this race!

Yeah, you don't have much to look forward to by moving into your own class. I mean, what chance does anyone stand against jerry? :shrug: :(

nope no hay bails, just open field on one side, a big wooden structure on one side, and woods on the other! and its pretty hard to go that far off course, ive only seen one such occasion, and it was a miata that forgot to brake! just make sure if you want to do ride alongs, to get there about 9 or so!

Yeah, the big wooden climbing wall is the most dangerous thing. I've only seen one car go completely off the blacktop, and nearly slam into that thing. But everyone else has at least stayed on the paved part, so you don't have much to worry about. :cool: :D

i had a honda run nose to nose with me the other night at the street races. damn t-88 turbo's :(

Ouch. That sucks. Stupid Honda's. But remember, you're not going to run into one of those too often. Mostly just stickahz, wings and fart cannons. :D :cool:

yah...got tore apart by a TT supra also. but i was expecting that one, so it wasnt that bad. so you goin to leave that svo you get stock...or give it hell?

Was the Supra bright blue?

Yeah, I'm going to give the SVO hell. My goal is to maintain good autoXing ability and hang with LS-1's in a drag. Should be fun.
:D

i plan on having one no later then September 5th!!!!:D :cool: :D

I hope that one in Tampa is still available by then. It is an '84, so it is 25 HP less, but I'm sure that's just a diff in the heads or something, like on '98s to '99s. Shouldn't be too hard to fix...but I'm sure mfpmax can elaborate more.

ok i found it! that didnt take long! here is what i found by year!!

84 SVO
2.3L 140 EFI T 8.0:1 175 hp @ 4400 155 ft/lb @ 3600

85 SVO
2.3L 140 EFI T 8.0:1 200 hp @ 5000 240 ft/lb @ 3200

86 SVO
2.3L 140 EFI T 8.0:1 205 hp @ 5000 245 ft/lb @ 3200

so its official, im looking for either and 85 or 86!!!:D

I thought the 85 had 205 and the 86 had 200? Oh well, i'm sure in reality they have the same amount anyway. Shouldn't take too much work to bump that up from 205 at the crank to 300 at the wheels. :eek: :D :D

you realize to do that the car would have to make more then 350 at the crank! thats one major kick in HP, but it can and will be done!!!:D :cool: :D

i know thats the only reason holding me back, but another way to look at it is that instead of being last out of 25, i would only be getting beat by like 3 or 4 people!:D :p :D 5th sounds alot better the 25th!!:D :cool:
