Re: Car goals 2013
Start working on the Talon again. This will include too much to list.
A turbo swap on the GS-T for sure. Maybe an engine rebuild; who knows. I know I sure as hell do not want another T-Toosmall, low RPM spooling turbo on this thing. More traction on the low end and more power up top? Sounds good to me.

11.5 or faster in the 1/4, and to make it through the summer without popping the stock block.

Yep, for sure, the DD challenge accepted!
Scheduling wise thinking one of the corvette club auto-x events would be the ticket. |

Nice! Glad you completed a successful year. I don't even want to look at what I posted, I am guessing I did not complete it. |

Re: Car goals 2013
Since I start a new job beginning of February...
Timeframe is moved up, I want the remainder of the engine stuff done, and hopefully the t-case before B4B. Everything will be done by PG2013.1

Re: Car goals 2013
My Talon should be buck wild this year! If I get it together in time, and all goes well 8's? The Evo's will remain the same, take the grey one to the strip and the other to the track.

That is sick. I say take that grey one on the track, that powerband has got to be perfect for everything. |
