This track outing was for tuning on high boost and race gas.
harlan doesnt want anything to do with street tires and the street with that much boost
At WOT on the 1-2 shift now she will break them loose like crazy....on pump gas.
He does almost all his tuning on the street/Track.
I know we wanted track testing before any dyno runs because to us the dyno isnt important.
We will see..... im being patient...... im just bumbed.....

Are you talking about the corvette rental tonight at Milan, Kyle?? I was going to go, but i'll really go if Harlan will possibly be there with your beast!!! I am dying to see it run!!(as I am sure everyobe else is!!)

The weather here is unreal. Rain on and off every two minutes. $35 down the drain, I guess.


I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Let me know if you guys need help delivering the car. My in-laws are in Centreville, VA so I could help drive the car out if you want to save on shipping. Would give my wife a weekend to visit with her family.

And good luck with the weather. I think there is rain for a while now with these low pressure systems circling the midwest. I hope it clears up so they can do some test-n-tune runs.

Kyle, is it the same GT42-76 that you started off with or did you get another turbo from Jose? And if you did can you please list the specs....there that'll take care of the tech content

Too bad it rained dude. I was hoping to see some wicked numbers today too

I can't even imagine waiting that long...hang in there.

Whats wrong with you?

You just got married....you're going to have a quick car pretty damn soon. Given how long you've waited it really isn't going to be much longer.

On the contrary, you're one lucky guy


Quick Reply: Why cant i have any Luck..... :(
