There is a TnT on Friday, March 30th. I'll be there most likely with some friends seeing how much good tires a spool and an intercooler will knock off my time, wondering if there is anybody else up this way that might be going?

I will most likely be there with my car but not racing grrr! As I live only a short distance from it. Also I wanna check out your ride there Poik!

I won't be racing my Camaro, sorry. Can't afford to break the 10 bolt on it right now, and I know it wants to

oh i see.
Yah I wanna do some racing but I know my clutch is gone within a month of normal driving so I need enough time to order my LS7 clutch.

so poik, what is the swedish rice teams best time so far?

Poik

15.2. I'm hoping for 14.5-14.8 now. You know, like what a poorly maintained LT1 will do, or an M6 with a bad driver. Last time I was cutting consistent 2.2 60 foots with the open differential and bald 205/60R15 tires, I have some decent rubber I'll be putting on the back and a spool now, so hopefully I'll do consistent 2.1's or so.

So, decent rubber, a spool and an intercooler have been added since the 15.2 run? What's your boost level?

Poik

~13psi. I am thinking about bringing it up to around 15psi, but that's kind of at the far end of efficiency for this small turbo. Also, all the experts say I have already maxed out my stock 29lb/hr injectors, but the wideband says otherwise.. Yeah, a big ebay intercooler. I think it's the same one Ryan K is running, his might be an inch thicker core though. My butt-o-meter says 15hp+, and my ears say my engine no longer sounds like a marble polisher. Pulls a lot harder, especially on the top-end. Also took out all the air conditioning stuff that didn't work. Compared to stock:

But, alas I took off the flat black hood in exchange for a matching red hood I got at the junkyard, so that probably makes me lose about 15hp, so it's a wash

When I hook up then usually I pretty much stomp the person in the other lane out of the hole, because at Mission I run in "Sport Compact" lol. 3.73 rear end and 4.03 first gear will do that, ******* tractor gearing.

It's only $10 to run at this thing and you can pretty much hot lap. I was hoping to see some of the guys from the bike thread chime in. Mission is also one of the best tracks around, IMO.

How much hassle is it to trailer a car across the border?

NVME

Several of my buddies trailer cars across the Sumas crossing. They are quite used to having Americans bring their cars up to race at Mission and will usually give you little to no hassle. The other crossings look at you crazy when you say you are going to race at Mission and your car is shaking the glass customs building.

Poik

Yeah we will be heading across the Sumas crossing. More fun roads heading that way too. It's a great track with nice people.

I may head up just to see how the track is this year, its been awhile (2001). It would be baby runs since I don't want to call for a trailer back to Woodinville.
Great, just checked...need a new helmet because its now 'outdated'

EVENT CANCELLED

Pits are swamped and safety first on the track. Maybe next week.

Poik

Yeah I was just about to post that. Oh well.

Poik

I'll be there this Friday, 6th.

I'll keep my eyes open for you. Couple of us Impala guys are heading up around 1:00.

Weather is going to be great!
