Default Anybody want a trailer ride to Byron and back sunday??

we are thinking of joining a few of the speed inc guys at Byron with my car on sunday for one last outing.

just like we did for the MFBA rental in cordova last weekend we'd be willing to put two other cars on our big trailer with mine and offer those spots at our dead cost per mile.

from my house in rolling meadows to Byron dragway, $75 round trip for anyone who wants to go. first come first serve. that's 150 miles round trip.

sean@lsxtransport.com is the best way to hit me up about it.

lets go racing!!

**** a nugget...I wish I was back in town this weekend. Any chance you guys are gonna go again any time over break? I don't gamble taking my car to the track without a way to get back in case I break my wet noodle of an *** end.

neal what do i look like your personal calendar i haven't been in school for 5 years, like i know when your break is you *****.

byron is the best on tech they dont' give a **** WHAT you bring there it seems lol.

Larry I emailed Carlos earlier today, got no reply yet. he told me last week he wanted a lift if we went again this year.
Dean, the guy we pulled to cordova wants a spot. so one spot left, if you talk to Carlos tell him to email me back asap if he wants his spot again. and to bring more beer this time!! that guy was hilarious.

he responded to me just now. he wants in.

Trailer is full folks!

ok now who has some good tires i can rent/borrow for a few passes so i don't put on an ice skating show at the starting line again like at cordova. 28's please. still trying to figure out how to calculate what Alex's 27's will do to my trap.

Larry do you know..I trapped 6600-6700 rpm on sat with 28's and 3.73 gears and 4500 power adder 'verter. what would a 27" do to that if i traded tires with sprayed01

more RPM = more boost

more boost = more power

more power = more MPH

get it to hook and it will be a good day assuming you have usuable power upwards of 6800 rpm

hell if i know the car has never been on a dyno at all. i just go out on the street with the wideband logging away and try not to get arrested. very scientific method i assure you.

well i can't use my damn two step as you know since its fubar so i'm footbraking. i could probably hook a fresh set of 27's if I traded with Alex. my rev limiter is 7400, think i'd be ok?
