Default Missed 7's by .08........

Missed it by Just that little bit....

If only the track would have taken 28 psi in one second instead of only 24 psi and ramp it to 28 a little ways out....

would have been a better first half if I could have poured on the boost a little sooner...
but he track wouldnt take 28 psi in 1 second....
had to ramp it to 24, and then stretch it a bit to 28

That is a good bit of timing. What heads?

This is an inspiring thread. I've bounced the idea of an LS Fox in my head for years but always thought it was impractical. It's great to see someone brave this adventure. In my case, I would be looking for a streetable car that can roadtrack and Auto-X on the weekends. Figure a PHB (symmetrical), some suspension/brake revisions, a T5WC tranny to a T2-R diff and 8lbs/whp in a car that won't disturb your neighbors and is otherwise stock. No fender flaring and minimal dashboard mods. I've started a thread about it here.

Well, since this thread was brought back after all this time is there any updates? Did that 7 second pass ever happen?
