Default Anyone going to the LVD rental 5/28?

Just wondering if anyone is heading up to Lebanon Valley for the track rental Friday the 28th, there's always been a good crowd from here in the past. Here's the info:

Very tempting Chef. To be honest I don't even have the scratch to for the ticket cost.

If something changes, I will let you know, for now I am going to decline. But very much appreciate the offer.

My brother Craig (blue LT1 Z28) and some of his friends will be there. He's shooting to match his previous best since he did a few minor mods and the temp will be a bit warmer than last time. He previously ran a 13.5 at 100, I believe, so if he hits that in the warmer weather (assuming it's warmer than the 55-60 he had with last time), it will definitely mean the car picked up a bit.

I think since last time, he's done a 160* stat, pulley, and a tune (handheld tuner). He's already got 3.42s, Mangaflow catback, CAI, and the airfoil with Nittos.

If I had the day off, I'd ride up just to watch, but I really need to make the money since I'm not racing. If I had full leathers right now, I'd probably take the day off and race the bike, but I probably won't have a suit until later in the summer.

You takin the LT1?

Nah, I usually just go to watch and hang out, if I want to run the car I go to street night. It will pretty much run the same time whether I run it once or twenty times.

I'll probably hold off until later in the year for the rentals. I want to save the money for a few upcoming tweaks to the car and I'll try to get to a rental in the Fall. Until then I'll get up there for a few Wednesday nights test and tunes.

If anyone wants a ticket I know of someone looking to sell his, so it might be worth it to make an offer and save a little money.

Is this the "660 rwhp" Mustang?

It's getting mods, just not mods to make it faster. Not in a straight line anyway...

LOL ScreaminRedZ!!!! and yes! it is the 660rwhp notch! i put a hurtin on him the last time we were up at the pike!!! but his rwhp numbers change every time someone else asks him how much hp he puts down! lol... he bought the car a year ago off ebay and the guy he bought it off said it was 550 to the wheels, but no dyno sheet... over the winter he had the heads ported and polished, so now he thinks he picked up another 100hp!
hes still having problems with the car blowing oil... i told him id give him $3k for it! lol... then id stuff a ls1 in it! the way it should have been! hahaha!
