Sharif's photographer took over 400 pics. He was taking so many pictures I put my camera back in the car 
I'm sure they will post them up early next week. There is very limited if any bandwidth/connectivity up here in Fontana.
Hopefully there are no pics of me pouring my 6 foot frame into and out of the GTR, lol. I know why Sharif only eats fish and drinks diet cokes,... that race seat is SMALL !!!!

Well, even if we did get rained out it was great to see everyone. Sitting in the airport garage with everone was actually kinda fun I really wish we IP and Joe would have been able to get some runs in but oh well, maybe next year.

That thought already went through my mind when xkr let me know about the turbo.....it should be under warranty so it will be all good.....other than car being down longer. I really wanted to see some vids of xkrs monster on the strip
Next year it will be a real monster.Pics videos??? Post em up please.

Due to air-filter location my guess is the jwt 850 setup.
Supra guys are notorious for running dual BOV's when at high boost.
I just went with a large one at a different location and haven't had problems at 30psi

assuming you build your fuel system for e85 (its corosive and I hear absorbs moisture pretty quick)
I'll be switching over to it this year too (hence triple fuel pumps, and 1000cc in). Need to run about 1/3 again more fuel on e85 than gas......but basically 105octane for $2.50 a gallon....holla

THANK YOU SHARIF FOR PUTTING ON A GREAT EVENT. Great hospitality from the Forged Performance crew all weekend long. What a treat. Just got back. We got rained out at the start of our "real" runs, so I never turned the camera on. 
No vids from the airstrip event for me. I should have at least gotten my first run against Sharif on tape because it was the only one I edged him out. Of course, he pushed a few buttons in the GTR (VDC and boost control I believe!) and the 2nd and 3rd time we ran he was walking away. Great fun though. More details to follow...

Seems like this year, luck wasn't on our side, weather wise. It was nice and clear at Fontana Village, but weather was very dicey in Hendersonville. Glad to see everyone come out, including the guys from Injected Performance with their green machine monster. 3/4 of the fun is just hanging out and shooting the shiznit with everyone. So hope we delivered on that count. Forged will hold onto the Top Dawg trophy until next year.
See you all next year! ZDAYZ will be May 20th 2010, so the airstrip is on for May 19. Clear your calendars..>NOW....no more excuses.
