May would be perfect
You don't want it to be too cold again Johnny.

Late August/ Early Sept is PERFECT, but good luck getting the track, I bet it is all booked up. Looking forward to this "season"
Anyone else sick of the snow yet???

I will be doing a second meet in August/ Early Sept. I will set it up for sometime in May, and this time I will set the track up for 50 people.

I am def sick of this snow!

Default Items that need to go.

Guys,
I have some things that I need to get rid of. Thought I would check here for any interest first before posting an ad in the marketplace.
(1) RC 440cc injectors already mounted on stock fuel rails = $200,
(2) RC 750cc injectors (about 1000 miles on them) = $350,
(3) Greddy emanage blue = $120,
(4) Greddy strut bar = $50,
(5) brand new crawford strut bar = $90,
(6) stock strut bar = $20,
(7) Greddy radiator breather tank (brand new in box) = $75,
(8) 2003 Touring rims and tires = $300,
(9) Seibon TS II carbon fiber hood (has small crack on inside of hood near latch area) = $300 (never on car because it will not fit over Crawford Plenum).
(10) two nitto nt extreme tires (245/35/19) with about 80% tread left = $100 for the pair.

Billy, my garage is always open for Z's!!! I have brake pads I need to put on, and I think I'm going to do something about the clutch fluid/lines before I drive my car too hard this spring.

Steve, now that we know how to do the springs, they're not that bad. A few bolts, Shifty twisting the assy, and it pops right out. The rears are a piece of cake. But no manual spring compressors!!!! PITA

Default Milan Rental Rates

I just finished talking to some of the people at Milan Dragway. They are sending me some info through e-mail about days availiable for rent. All I can say is WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They have increased the price by more than double. I am hoping I can talk with someone who knows a little bit more, the lady I talked with didnt seem to know to much about it. I am just hoping she is wrong.

The only good news I got was we can rent the track on a saturday morning, bad news for that is it is going to cost another 500.00 than if we do it on a week day.

Right now I am ******* POed!

If we fill all 50 spots it will be about:
- $65 per person on a week day Mon - Thurs. (No firday nights, only friday mornings)
- $75 per person for a saturday


Let me know what you guys think. At that price it would still be worth it to me, especially after they way last years meet went.

Also would you prefer to do it during the week or on a sat morning. I vote Saturday morning.

I'm still in. I think I'd prefer Saturday morning - daylight - better for pics and vids. I can do a weekday too if it comes to that. I'm flexible.

Thanks for the update.

I will be going to Autorama Billy,
I always go, I know a few guys showing there cars so I go support the event.
You shipping your car or driving it down there?

Dil-Lapeer you cannot hook to save your life.
The reason it is cheap is because it is a POS.
I'd rather go to Milan and NOT slam into a wall.
Especially you TT guys, I mean jeesh you have enough power you want good track prep

Autoramma for sure. I always go on sunday night when the show ends. This way I can watch all the cars drive out. They sound awsome.


Billy - Now your back to the Fcon? Cant make up your mind?
