Default Announcing the 2011 LTX Shootout

Announcing the 2011 LTX Shootout
I think everyone agrees that the 2010 shootout was a lot of fun and the folks at Beech Bend were great as were the facilities and Bowling Green as well. So with that being said...

Tony and I are happy to announce the 2011 LTX Shootout!

Saturday September 3rd, 2011
Beech Bend Raceway
Bowling Green, KY
8AM - 5PM

tbss? the street stock / bolt on only class? if so we have A LOT of interest but we wont know really an idea until people pre register. but the minimum goal is 8 cars, but we are thinking we will get at least a 16 car field maybe more.

Mike's car has potential but, he needs to figure out how to hook it up before it becomes a class killer.

With less than 300hp I dont think hooking would be an issue.lol Actually it never was an issue until I put those junk comp 3ways on. Should not be an issue now with 700hp on the way and the current Madman suspension tuning. The car hooks awesome on the street now with a radial.

Thats good to hear Mike, IMO the lack of traction is what has always held you back the power was there. When I think about how Alan's car hooked with his 6 speed that is how your car would have ran with less cubes so I think you gave up on the manual to early.

To expensive to build one that will hold up reliably and as consistent as I want the car to be. Theres a lot more grudge action around here, so that is what im focusing on. Just racing the shootout because its a great time and get to hang with Ltx guys from all over the country. Im not really trying to build a class car for it anymore. Alans car sure did change my mind about radials and T56 cars though!

Your car should run good this year Mike.

Oh and I might come out to some RSD's this year it's been a long time since Ive made one and the competition has been really weak the last couple of years from what Ive read on Chitown but, I'm sure no one is afraid of an LT1 right ?

My new motor is running... and in the car. Superflow engine dyno results were very promising, but I need to get the car on the rollers now and have Moe finesse the PCM tune.
