Anyone up for heading down to Tri State on the 17th? I'm no hooked again on the 1320 and really want to go racing again. It says on their web site that the dates are tentative. It dosen't say what time the gates open or what time racing is, but I'm going to give them a call tomorrow and see if I can find out. Post up if you are interested.

I'd like to go racing somewhere as soon as I have the kinks worked out. Is Tri State much farther than Cedar Falls?

If I can get my boost creep taken care of I will. I will stop by work and put in for it off tomorrow. :toast: Maybe I will be faster than stock...

CVD - Tri-State is about another hour father then Cedar Falls.


good luck to everyone. If you go. If my car was running I'd be heading down with you but it's to far for me to drive.


If anyone wants to stop by and pick up the camcorder feel free to shoot me a PM or something.


Andy ever think about having a camera mount welded to your cage?

I'm going to try change the fluid, since I have the some shitty ass Valvoline in there right now, adjust my clutch so it engages a little sooner then the floor, and try adjusting my shift cables. Hopefully that's all it needs.

Yeah you should do that, its not that easy holding a fucking camera on a 3rd gear highway pull with 500+hp. The god damn camera hit the ceiling when we were coming home from Rock Falls and he did that.

I haven't seen that video, but I know Brian has. Brian good camera work huh? :headache:

If I get my limited slip, and have it in by that Friday, then I might head down. One wheel burnouts are cool. :blah:

Ya your camera work was impressive.

Here's how it went:
looking out the windsheild at the road (then comes the gas), oh look at the nice roof liner man that's in great shape.... (then comes the shift)... oh look at the dash it's so pretty....(on comes the gas) Oh look there's that roof liner again. :headache: heheheh J/K


It's ok I completely understand G-forces are your friend.

If you wanted to watch my digital camera video of that run it's the very last video at the site in my video section at the link I posted.

If anyone's going for sure can you Please PM me.


I found a Rear diff for my car it's in IA and Jackey said he'd be willing to pick it up for me. And if we can arrange a time to meet. Would anyone be willing to bring it back to MN for me? (I'd help with Gas $$$)

I might not go. I still have boost creep (a lot better but still there, creeps to like 17psi). If I can get a good tune on race gas I will go.

As Brian said, I am going to take care of picking up the differential so all I'll need will be for someone coming back from Tri-State to meet me. I was thinking the Flying J truck stop at the intersection of I-35 & Hwy. 20 since those of you traveling will pass directly by it on your way home. Hopefully this'll work out so Brian can get his car back on the road...
