We will be there. Dan will be bringing out his Mustang with a new set up...

This year the engine has different heads and was upgraded from twin 80 mm turbos to twin 88 mm turbos. Dan went to Byron on Saturday for some testing and managed a 1.06 60 foot time while carrying the front wheels (needs to put some weight up front now). He is planning on getting into the 6.30 range at 220 mph.

Old set up.






New set up pics will be taken this weekend.

I really want to race but not sure my tires are good enough. And I've never raced a bracket series before. I'll be there either way

We are leaving tomorrow at 3:30ish and plan on being there all day Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Come by and say hi if you are there. My car is nothing compared to most of what will be there, but we plan to have some fun.

Yes, I contacted sorce interlink and they said they wanted to do an article but said they were looking for a spot for it. Corvette Enthusiast is running it as a feature in thier September Issue and Columbus Magazine is doing a piece on it as well (local magazine).

You still shooting for GMHTP? I was talking to Celester, but haven't heard from him in a while.
