Probably only thing is luna performance and thats only if you have ray luna do the work personally, I have had one of his mechanics build my 4g63 bottom end back when inforce performance was around, they had my car for over a year and the one of the rod bearings slipped and the engine crapped out while I was still breaking it in. every shop has they horror stories around here.

as far as pricing with JL motorsports, I've used them before... they do very good quality work... I know we're in negotiations as far as labor... so you'd have to ask 86 about that as of now.

So we have all discussed many times through these past years the idea of Thunder Alley re-opening. That idea has never completely died and as said before anything is possible. You all have given your input on this issue here on EPR and other forums, with everything said your input on re-opening the track can now be sent straight to TA and they would like to hear it straight from you. The TA website has been set up with a simple form asking the question "Should TA re-open?" visit www.thunderalley.com and send your feedback. Everybody's input is wanted, the racer, the fan, everyone. Everything will be taken into consideration and with enough support hopefully this could become a reality.

Visit http://www.thunderalley.com to send your comments and keep checking El Paso Racing (http://www.elpasoracing.com) for updated info as well.


Copy and Paste this and post around the web; Myspace, Facebook, Twitter, help spread the word!

Is there really a need for TA anymore now that there is the track in clint?? And is there really enough support for both TA and the Track in clint?
