I'll be their on the 27th to race. If anyone has an extra set of DR's that I could use please let me know, I'm willing to rent them for the day and I'll bring my own jack and stands.

I wont be able to get my 18" wheel/DR setup done in time for the event and it's going to be brutal trying to run a decent time with 618lbs of torque on heavy PIAA Super Rozza's and Falken street tires.

Ok people.... I've been cool with people promoting the other event. But please, I think it's been more than enough. Feel free to start your own thread so we can KEEP THIS ONE ON TOPIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks!

See you all on the 27th!

If I can make it to watch I'll bring my DR's with me. I have BFG DRs' 265/40 on the stock 18's. I have a G also.

Granted they are not wide enough for your power level, but is better than stock.

Damn the track was prepped that good to break your tranny? Did any FI Gs or Zs run?

Hmm... I don't know if it was all because of the track. I have an original infamous 2003 tranny on my car. So far I was lucky of not having any grinding of third or fifth gear. However it seems my luck ran out yesterday.

Also, I tried slicks for the very first time being I got new, stronger dyno numbers. I figured I was going to need all the help I could get in order to get the power to the ground. Lastly, right before I was up, they cleaned the track one more time. They added that VHT (basically tire glue), so when I spun off the water box, my car just hooked. I literally snapped my neck!

So, long story short, I think it was a combination of things just adding up at the same time. I was hoping of getting atleast a low 12 or even possibly joining the 11sec club. Last time I ran my car I was on some cheaters and pulled a 12.6 @ 116mph with 60+ less ponies.

As far as any FI Z's or G's, I don't think so, or atleast I didn't see any. I think the fastest trap was mine, unfortunately with the 14.1 .

Are you N/A or F/I? Running 12's at CS is hard to do N/A in our cars.
