I'm not a big fan of spectators...it just increases your chances of getting in trouble. I usually just set something up with someone I know and go have fun on a back road somewhere.
Hell yeah... that would be fun. We don't have to go more than like a mile to get it done too.
Actually, I have quite a few friendly runs lined up with people in Mackinaw. The GTO is supposed to run another GTO and an SRT8 300C. A guy I know has a Supra that he wants to run against the camaro off the spray. I just need to work on getting things buttoned up on the camaro over the winter and getting a 12 bolt or 9 inch under it.
Are you gonna do the tranny rebuild yourself?

Yeah, I'm rebuilding the trans myself. I just swapped a 4L80E into my buddy's truck (the Silverado with the 22s that was parked in my yard for about 2 months). He came over to show me his "built" 4L60E and we broke something right away. It's definitely a hard part, and I think it's the input shaft, though I haven't tore into it yet.
So anyways, I'm going to start with that core, since it's got the 5 pinion planetaries, billet servo, shift kit, converter.
Let me know if you want a hand turning wrenches on the Camaro. I'm aways up for that.
Ok, so let's see:
CWW17 vs. Compressor Surge
Bird vs. Dmax (from a dig)
Bird vs. GN
HD88 vs. Surge
Dmax vs. Goat
Camaro on motor vs. GN
Goat vs. C-10
ICRAZY6 vs. HD88
bird vs. camaro (motor, juice, or both)
any others?

Verdad Gallardo If you guys are ever hanging around the garage doing stuff, let me know (you got my number). I doubt I could be of much help, but I'm pretty good at sitting on my ***...drinking beer...and bullshitting about cars.
Hell, if the weather clears up some night... I'm sure we could probably get the GTO and the Dmax race out of the way. I don't think the roads will make too much of a difference on the GTO's traction and I have a feeling the Dmax won't have any traction issues.

Ya i will want a rematch with Icrazy6 and maybe a run with HD88. All motor or bottle to bottle after i get my car tuned this spring. That is if i still have it. Im pretty sure my car will run a high 11 all motor after a tune.
Ken are you going back to Straightline any time soon?
Pddye what is your new ta like. Anything special?
Damn im ready for the spring already!
2fast - I'm still trying to figure all this computer stuff out but other than that the t/a's running really good. I can't wait to give it a shot of some gas and take it up to the track.
