No way, even Todd on a Sunday stroll will get that ol' horse and carriage into the 12's! Orrrrr you pass the keys to salvage Timmy and watch him "whip that bitch into the 9's" 😂😂😂😂 "I'll show you little bitches how to drive" - salvage Timmy

And some minor tweaks for the Nova.

Tim could take a junkyard KIA and put it in the 10's. He's that good. Possibly the best.

So far the plan is to get the car back together and actually make it to the track.

Got lots of suspension goodies in the mail (thanks WS6 store for freakin amazing pricing). Maybe after tax season I'll be looking into a HCI setup. But priority is to get the car ready for autocross season.

Anyone here chasing cones? I never see any F-Bodies at autox events

Ive done it twice and plan to do it at least two more times this summer. I was shocked how addicting it was.

Had a good 30 min conversation with Carl at CRP last night. Ordered up a complete strange S60, and driveshaft for the Camaro! That should fix the noisy 3.90 10 bolt lol 😂😂

I want to put my 370 in the trailblazer with a 4l80e, maybe a new oil pickup for the trailblazer also.

I wish my LS project was done too! I'm glad to see there is still a lot of action in the NW sometimes it seems kinda dead.

I race with a few westside guys on a regular basis in the Streetcar Syndicate group that was mentioned some post's ago . You or any of you guys who are curious should drop by. No pressure to race , just hang out and enjoy the banter with fellow car nuts!

Got the S60 all painted up with gloss black POR-15 topcoat single stage, trimmed up the E brake cable / hardline mounts, bead blasted, and pained them up as well as a quick jetwash on all the other parts. Having the rotors ground tomorrow morning, then throw some quick paint on a few pieces and hopefully take it for a cruise tomorrow night and start the heat cycles on the gears!

What's the project? A bunch of the guys went to pir last night for some early season test and tune. Let everyone know when you decide it's ready to hit the track

We had the Wagon out last night. It's now on E85, bigger injectors, S485 billet turbo, plus updated rear suspension and weight reduction.

Also has an EBoost2 controller that is a pain to operate.
At 15 psi it went mid nines @ 143. At 17 psi it launched the tires.

The goal is 25 psi

I missed a good test day. I was getting some good points with the family since I've been working on car stuff pretty heavy for the last few weeks
