Default Going to the track tomorrow :)

Going to Cayuga tomorrow for a few passes. Up 35RWHP and 30 RWTQ from last time (Ran 118.98mph on street tires not hooking till third)

Also going to run the 28x10 inch Hoosier slicks.

ET isnt going to be stellar (on stock clutch) but I am hoping to get traction through all gears and a decent mph out of the car (~123mph)

Macleod rev lok 2 and Macleod adj master along with HD Driveshaft and DS loop are going to be in the car within the next two weeks <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
Then I can launch this pig at 6000rpm <img border="0" alt="[devil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />
Cheers,
Chris

Good luck Chris!

How's the weather up there? Is it starting to cool off and get "fall-like" yet? Still hot & muggy down here, and it won't stop raining every weekend I want to race!

hehe <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> I love having the six speed back again.

Now that I have decided to keep the car I am going to set it up right drivetrain wise...

After clutch, DS mods etc if I can hook to a 1.5 sixty sub 11.3@~123mph should be no problem in good air. That will be perfect for me and remain streetable.

That is the final goal when all is said and done <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Cheers,
Chris

George, our weather isn't that great for racing today. Right now it's 81F, 57% humidity and only 29.9" of barometric pressure. Not quite racing weather yet, but give it a week and we'll probably be looking at mid to high 60s and drier air.
