RF on the 27th

[EclipseGST]

Well I decided I probably wont be there considering I am highly intoxicated and my car is still blowing a little smoke and leaking oil, also is having a misfire problem, think its the plugs but dont know off hand. Maybe I'll be there, it will be last minute decision if I do. If I do go I will probably have to change out turbos and fix the oil leak and retune which would take all night so my reaction times will by shitty. Oh well, maybe I'll see you guys there, maybe not. Good luck if not.

So did anybody go today? I'm just wondering how many dsms showed up and what the general car count was.

[Goat Blower]

You guys missed out. There was not that many people there, it was sunny and hit a high of 81 degrees. Track prep was outstanding for RF, and things flowed smoothly since there wasn't a bunch of pimply faced Honda drivers there. Myself and CarlTalon were running, and there were three other DSM's I didn't recognize there as well. We made up the import group, all others were domestics, including a 280ZX with a V8.

So give us a time old man! :D

I ran a few mid 12's @ 119. I was hopeing for more but things just would't work out for me. A big thanks to Steve for the new spark plugs that finally made the car run desent.

How many cars would you say were there total? I'm just wondering if things are dying down there a little. For being a fun day, that place should have been packed end to end.

During time trials there were 3 full lanes, but that was closer to noon. Early on there were only 2 lanes. The majority of the cars there were trailered race cars.

Yeah, I woke up and decided that I wasnt gonna go and it was 8:30. So I went today (28th) for the Sport Compact day and man was I upset with my times. My best time was 14.9 :(. I had my logger and I had like 25+ counts of knock in third gear. I'm not sure if it was really knock, but that's what the logger said. So I went from last year's best of 13.9 to this years best of 14.9. BUT I won my 15.0 class.. hahaha..:D. I didnt even want the trophy because I was running so slow. Only upgrades from last year was a 2.5" dp and 2600 clutch. Oh yeah, that guy with the red 2G and 4G64 engine (from the cookout) was there. Ran something like 11.3.

Do you mean the 2g? The one w/o the front bumper?

[Goat Blower]

Nothing special. But I did manage to exactly match my previous best of 11.922, although I did it with pump gas and about 24psi. There's more left in the old dog.

I think this was the first time I've actually run with my Nitto drag radials. They hook like a mofo, although that 2.4 torque had 'em spinning hard on my last two runs.

So give us a time old man! :D
