Im not using the supercharger because its too big and i dont have the room. The 6.0 took up a lot of the room i did have. It wasnt going to be intercooled or methed. Now im trying to figure out what i want to do, nitrous or turbo. If i done a turbo it wouldnt be very cheap and i would most likely have to do a rear mount setup. Im not fond of a rear mount because my truck will see the street all the time and all kinds of weather. I could build a box around the sir filter to keep a lot of water and dirt out of it but not sure i want that headache. Nitrous is cheap, easy, and i know a little about it. Never messed with a turbo and not sure i want to.

Anybody need any exhaust pipe?? I have two 4 foot sections of 3 inch and one 4 foot section of four inch. I also have one full 180 degree mandrel bend in 3 inch. All brand new that is left over from my exhaust change.

A pretty good number of us as I understand so far, dude. When you get there, head to the right side of the stadium seats, and then further to the far right side of the "Beer Garden", right up against the fence. You'll find us lined up there.

As far as I know, everyone except me..

I don't have time to get my Z track-ready due to work schedule.

I've been designated to be the camera-man for this outing. If you run, your results will be plastered all over this thread, and in High-Def to boot.. fair warning.

It's all good man. Hey strap a little cooler to the bike with your personal goodies, no guarantee on the Beer Garden being open for business. I dunno what the new "management" has in store for the season opener. Just a heads up.

Just an FYI, and I'm a relative newbie for the track but I cant remember the beer garden ever being open since I have been going to the track. The "old timers" (sorry guys) commonly refer to it as the "old beer garden." Making me think it hasn't been open in a while. For the record, I hope there is a good turn-out, but, that waiting in the staging lane for 2 hours and then resorting to arm drop racing is

I had a great time tonight guys. Enjoyed hanging out, track was a little slippery, but it'll get better. Best part: nothing on my car broke. Sucks that the red Nova got crumpled up, but it could have been a lot worse.
I want to see all the videos. Post up Stevie!
