So how does July 9th sound for our little race? ;)

Nice runs for just coming off the trailer. That's a decent trap, especially for pump piss, I bet she'd scream with some real gas and boost.

Yeah, last time I set my rear Koni's to stiff, I fishtailed and almost hit the wall. The AWD's seem to like some rear weight transfer.

Trailer? I drove there and back.

Yeah I nearly fucking bit it. The car hopped 3 times in the rear then I ground 2nd (woot!) and all was fine.
The 1.779 60' was nice, not to hard of a launch, but it spun flat and stayed straight, just what I want.

I don't think I will have everything sorted out for race gas then.
I need a t-case and driveshaft, and a new trans now :(.
It might work, I'll be at rock, but probably on pump still, until I hit a 10.

Very nice traps Josh. Like you said, get the launch and shifting down and you will put out some impressive numbers on pump. I wanna see the race gas already.

Where was this btw?

Runs were at BIR. We decided its race gas time next weekend.

Once it's tuned you gonna release dyno figures, that would be pimp. Glad to see it's running!

I really think we could have gotten some better runs in, but with having to wait for the car to cool down, so that we could replace the coolant that it keeps deciding it doesn't want, we were only able to get in 3 runs.

Looks like we're gonna go next weekend and put some times down on race gas. Once we're satisfied there, we'll be back to work on pump.

Need to get that suspension sorted out, and that takes a lot of launches and number crunching to get right. I'm sure we'll have plenty of opportunity to get that handled next weekend in Iowa ;)

What headgaskets are in it? Sounds like one might be partially blown.
