If this happens, I think we will all be set on kill. I stopped trying to go faster a long time ago N/A. I switched to nitrous and was just getting ready to go heads,cam, nitrous and a coan 3sp. I'm sure I left 2 tenths on the table easy. New mods will be 100 less lbs, slightly more converter, bigger tires, more gear and get rid of that damned TM. I never even ran open exhaust so I guess that might help also. I'm sure that a few surprises will happen <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> End of May is a long way off and anyone could put something together in that time. This will be ALOT of fun!

Lynda - it might make Jason mad, but I'll email you some pics of the ram-air we have. But, sshhhhhhhh... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

And - you need a true dual system. It'll put you in your peak power-band much longer, and depending on your TC's shift extension - maybe the whole way down the track. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

You have MAC's right? I've got one I'll sell you. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Bob, I read the thread you started in the events section for this shootout, and you mentioned "if we run in one of the classes...?" Do we have to run in a class at the event to be able to compete for this?

Im not even gonna bother listing all my mods. www.arlingtonmotorsports.com has em all under the customer section. Although the times are a little old. I did run a 10.76@125.2 on a 90 shot dry nitrous kit. Car didnt 60 foot like i had wanted it too but i still got a 1.49. I went to a sticky 1/8 track and managed a 1.45 with a good amount of tire shake.

So far my plans are not gogin to add and cam and heads anytime soon. But if i can find a job by the event time you can count me in for ***** and grins.

Lynda....unless someone with the event decides to add this as a seperate class, then yes, you'll need to run one of their regular classes. Look at it this way...ya'll have a choice....I gotta run the brackets. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Default Re: Attn: Potential "Bolt-on" Shootout Participants...

i won't be running, but will be attending if this happens. and here's my suggestion, if it's worth anything, since i won't be running...

Engine: Stock internals, are aftermarket pushrods and roller rockers legal?

transmission: anything goes.

weight: minimum weight 3300 lbs. doesn't matter what you take off, as long as you meet the minimum weight requirement.

suspension, rearend, etc, is all up to you. i don't think this would be a test of best driver, because if it was, you'd need one car, each driver gets 2 passes, who's gonna volunteer their car <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> hehe. I think this would be more of a quickest stock internal shootout, with everyone facing the same conditions, and the same track. The ultimate winner will go to the one with the best setup suspension, best gearing, and strongest "freak" of a motor...

anyway, let me know if this goes down and i'm there with the camcorder in hand, and hopefully i can get my ATI All in wonder pro 9700 by then so i can put all the videos online <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> hehe. To the rest of y'all, hehe, don't you know our Texas boys will be bringing it home <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> hehe, just messin with y'all

Just bringing this back to the top for the New Year.

Also, to goad my LS1 bretheren on....my long tube headers and front-end pieces will be ordered today or tomorrow. Intake coming soon. Perhaps a few other neat tricks.

Get to work Rageman and Larry and 01-Z! Oh, and all you stab-n-steer folks better get hot too. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
