Default LS1Tech Forced Induction Shootout

We should get a 2016 list going.. and then have a few meet ups and shootouts. Be fun to run each other and check out each others set ups I think.

Mine should be ready by the end of March. I'd go if it's not too much of a hike.

I am in for the upstate NY area also. Either Lebenon Valley or Empire would work for me. I'm expecting to be done for April/May.

Going to be hard with no turbo. haha

Buffalo/WNY is going to have a lot of stout LSX cars this season for sure. I built two other s480 kits staying local that will move out, I know Bill is working away at his car with the GT-55, and JT76 will be quick on an auto(once tuned )

One of us needs to get into the 7s this season and bring some heat to these mustang guys.

great idea and alot of fun too.

for east coasters, MIR at Budds Creek offers a great track often with "mine shaft" air density and I've seen some very good times there

let me know if come spring we can setup a track day there

that would be a hoot!
