Default ATCO in the Air?

April 18th, yes Friday 3 weeks from now I'm coming with my fresh new 2000 z28.
Will you be there? I hope so, lets see how many local cars we can get out and have a fun night of racing and meet some people from the area with there beautiful lsx's.

Anyone coming leave a post, or just leave a comment or idea.

Also this is all depending on the weather, it is spring in NJ and anyone from the area knows it raaaaaaaaaaaaains.

Oh man, if you can go on any other day besides friday I suggest you do it. Every friday I go it ends up being a ricer breakdown fest that just pisses everyone off.

Hey Red sometimes thurs.are better but i will try to make it down that week when you go, I just went down there this past friday and it wasnt crowded but that was rare. The air wasnt great either but the car ran good, a couple of 12.40s and 12.30s and a nice 12.26 at 109 dead hooking. Looking for teens maybe if the air is cooler but that might be pushing it a little. The ls6 intake did pick me up a little car felt stronger mid and up top. Looking forward to seing your car,sounds nice.

Ya I was looking into maybe Thursday but it might be easier for people to get out on Friday. Lets do this...

If you do want to go vote for Thursday or Friday, the most of either one in 1 week thats when we'll go.

It's nice to hear that your car feels stronger If we have air like this past sunday morning, you will easily be in the teens Greg. upper 30s and barometer 30.60+ = nice DA

Greg, that's almost exactly what I ran at E-town the very next day (12.23@109+) except that I have headers with ORY pipe, a higher stall and even though I was basically full weight my actual raceweight was likely still lighter than yours...your car's freakishness frightens me.

Phil I know yesterdays air was unbelievable but I couldn't go plus I heard it was crowded with all the 8.50 10.0 and 12.0 guys. Man if we get another cold one like that I know I can see teens, that would be cool. If not 30s will be okay in the warmer air coming up. Wanna see how much further I can go before I finally do headers.

Thanx Marc, wish I could have joined you guys Sat. but had something else going on. I know even after 2.5 years with the car if still surprises me how well it responds to the little things. Man I luv my car. Gonna see how close I can get but I think I,m hitting the wall soon without having to spring for some more serious mods!

Yeah we've all hit that wall at some point or another but I think it's a pretty safe bet that your car could have a 12.1 (even if only a 12.1999 LOL) in it on one of those killer good air days/nights as it sits.
