Speak for yourself ;) I just gotta figure out how to keep up with you auto guys...

I don't think you are technically in stock appearing any more are you? I thought tubular manis are out? If you are in then I would be too but I wasn't planning to make it into that, I just want to get times don't care about winning.

at 99mph!!

That car is pretty stripped down, but I know you know how to setup a car and with A billet 16G its totally doable.

Sadly munchgsx is going to a EF3 so he will be able to outpower us all, I think it will be him then the rest of us fighting for 2nd place.

I'm waiting to see the rules though, if its like shootout rules we might have a chance.

I am starting to sense it might be easier to slap on a Holset and run in the TS class...

lol, sorry dude I forgot about the X's and their insane power on stock appearing turbos.

This car belonged to a guy nammed Larry on the link forums. You know more about the car? I didn't go poking around too much just saw that one post in the fastest times thread and got pumped it could be possible. Are yout hinking of the English Racing 1g? I thought that thing was pretty stripped but I thought that went low 10's on the 68hta.

Yea I probably don't have a chance in the stock appearing class, I just think it'll be fun if I can go race and try and make other people work for the win.


Just sell that nice evo and get a crappy auto dsm ;)

I talked with him via PMs and the car has nothing in it at all, its a true track car. I think the only diff. between him and english is that he hasn't taken a drill or sawzall to the car.

TS class? you are gonna run low 10s with a holset? I think this is why we need a middle class.

On subject, it sounds like you are going to continue with the mods since the car hasn't sold yet? Do u drive it during the winter?

Ohhh, I didn't know he was that stripped :( Oh well, maybe I'll take a few things out it and put in the Kirkey I have laying around. Probably could get close to 100lbs out of it pretty easy as it still has EVERYTHING in it.

I priced it high so I didn't think it'd actually sell. I think I'll just keep it as I know if I actually sell it I'll be looking at dsm's again a few weeks after it sells. I'll try and do little things here and there but there isn't anything major I want to do to it until it either a) blows up or b) I hit my goal of 10.99. Whichever comes first :rollinglaugh:

Kind of want to get it in the garage this weekend to tinker with it so I can get some more pictures in this crappy thread instead of all this text.



I plan on getting a shift box that shifts for me at designated shift points. I think I'll have to figure out a ricer excuse if I can't blame my slow times on shifting/clutch/trans issues. Any ideas? haha

That forced four guys will have his fully programmable shift boxes out next month, so you could probably pick that up with the display box too.

I think a 10.99 is doable but it will take slicks and maybe suspension if not a good amount of weight pulled out of it.

All you are waiting for now in the switch to E85 and slicks right? Does your car have suspension mods?

I shouldn't have to; Last year, TS class was won by a fastest time of 11.187 @ 127.32.

Yea I've emailed him asking when he think it'll be done. Sounds like a way better unit than the Roadsurge one.

I was just waiting for the shift box before going to get tuned on e85. I have everything else I SHOULD need to go e85.

No suspension mods as of yet. The coil overs I had for the black car didn't seem to make much of a difference that I noticed, but I'm sure it'll help with getting consistent launches with the auto. Also waiting for the rules from MAP before buying any tire/wheel combo.

Sounds like you plan on running a lot quicker than last year as well! :drive:

That rule is grey and from the looks of it is dropped this year...I hope it is or I will go back to sleeper mode for this race! If you keep yammering on about it I'm sure someone will raise a flag sooner or later, so shhhhh!

LOL the insane weight makes up for it...
