to far away to tell, wait till friday to start trying to make assumptions...better yet, wait till sunday morning :)
you got that right...cause if its like Macon, you WILL get the 10% chance lol
event wasnt all that great only a hand full of cars that was impressive, that galant from CFT that was running with clark and won the showdown class was sick!!!
unfortunitly i didnt make it but i heard that galant was badass! lol heard it gave clark a little suprise!:goodjob:
I thought it was a good event, i really didnt get to stop and watch to many good races though. I did see some people break though.
its time for you to get a better turbo setup and turn up the boost on that built motor :goodjob:
Nice meeting ya, kpf2007. When I found out I had the highest trap (115 mph) in FWD qualifying, that was a shocker. There usually are one or two cars that trap higher than me in that class. All motor class, there were just two cars. :???: Overall, I had a great time and I have another trophy to match my win from the Spring 2007 Import Showdown so I'm happy. :D

I pressed the transbrake after I staged and the car rolled forward and the transbrake never stopped it. I'd been having problems with the transbrake slipping when the nitrous comes on and almost didn't bring the car. Glad I did, b/c there were only 3-4 cars entered in showdown class.
After I got the transbrake to catch it felt like a decent run.
Clark mine does that sometimes. After my burnout i will usually activate the tbrake once to kind of "purge" it and then it always works right while staging. Hate it u redlit...that sux donkey ballz. When are you hitting the track again? Our weather is almost here!!
OUR weather....wtf?Quote:

Thats right, there are 0 teeth left on that gear. lol I believe this was around 20-24 psi or so but its probably the heat from the runs on the dyno that really killed it.

Mo Powa!:cheers:
so who had the fastest srt 4 out there, I heard there was one in the M/S class but got eliminated first round, does ne one know how fast it was?
its a trade off though...cooler air means less traction.
what???? a track temp of 100 degrees is gonna offer less traction than a track temp of 60 degrees. The weather we are in now is perfect for hp vs traction.
yes but if you drop below 60 then it starts getting just as bad as 100.Quote:

I haven't competed since last year's IS so I was still trying to get the feel of launching my car on DOT tires. Slicks are so much easier. LOL. A few weeks ago I was at Silver Dollar with Evolunchbox and btstone. They can verify that I was running up to 14 second passes and trapping under 110 on full power and DOT tires. Doh!
BTW i thought u couldnt run slicks in fwd class. I thought that stepped you up to the next class
300whp and slicks on your setup and you will be in the high 11's easy with good drivingQuote:
