You guys missed some fun tonight, Bayfront was a blast. I think I met some of the guys from GCFBA.org, one of their friends set-up a race with me and a GT, pretty fun, not much stupidity out there tonight. Sorry you couldn't make it Ben.

Guy out there with a H/C/Spray LS1 raced a Katana 600, and beat it. Crazy.

Hopefully we'll all actually meet sometime, instead of being internet buddies.

I've im Orlando for Spring Break, went to the track Wednesday, got some decent times, 13.6-13.7's, 60 footers sucked though. Couldn't hook up at all. Raced 2 SRT-4's, A black Sti twice, LS1 T/A, 2nd Gen Camaro, and a 67 Camaro SS, didn't lose once (lucky me). Shows ya how bad the track was hooking, I had an even hole shot with the Evo the second race. Got some sick videos though, I'll send em out if anyone wants some entertainment.

Thomas- my car was messing up too, my low coolant light came out so I got my radiator flushed only to find the coolant level switch was broken. What are you gonna get if you trade yours in?

Andrew- I don't know about any car shows on the beach, but its a shame you couldn't see it before Ivan, much nicer, I don't know how much of the beach is gonna be open this summer though, but the beach is a great place to go crusing.

Later guys.

I raced the STi at the 1/4 mile track, guy couldn't drive for anything, ran like a 14 flat with a 2.0 60 foot. 2.2 60 foot on the second race, if someone knows how to host videos I'll send all 7 of them. It's a blast down here. I'm suppose to be racing an MKiii Supra tomorrow so hopefully it'll be clear enough, should be a good match.

I'd like to know more about that shop you were talking about Andrew. Can a dependant use it or not? I'd love to find a place with a welder so I can do my exhaust myself instead of paying 45/hr to do it. Everyone enjoy their weekend.

Yea, that is most likely your problem. I have a 85 T/A that kept running hot. I replaced the radiator and added a 160 stat. It still ran around 230. Then I bought that $25 air dam and now I barely see 170.

Mine would overheat unless I was doing atleast 60. Then it was running around 190 with the 160 stat. I'm not saying that it is definately the problem but it worked for me.

wow you can get a stage II turbo kit for 3 grand (heres the link http://www.turbokits.com/talon_turbo_kits.html) then you know you could throw on a 50 shot and prolly be in the mid to low 11's im guessin' then again, you could buy the Z28 and be half way to the 11's already but you would be makeing paymentson it. that is one thing its alway nice to have a car thats paid for. i dunno man. i say we all sit down throw back a couple and talk about this big decision..........anyone....ok anyway. im out - Andrew
