Irwindale This Thurs?

Anyone going?

I think I'll watch for a bit then make a pass later on in the evening when it gets cooler, then get kicked out again.

See you out there with the TT V/8 car hope to run some mid 5's this time if all goes well. I will be driveing it this time. Just a little concerned about the short shut down area. Expect to go about 130 mph.

130mph? Pick the left lane. Better shut down.

Oops, can't make it this afternoon/evening. Our overtime was cancelled today, so I had to leave work early, and the 605 was blocked up on the 91 about 2 miles. Hope that everybody has fun & gets good time slips.

On my way. Brent SORRY i didn't get the video in time to bring to the track. I'll have it for you as soon as I can get my computer friend to put IT on my computer, then we'll figure out a way to send it too ya. Ill probably just burn it on both a DVD-R ready for movie play, and a CD-R so you can have to hard copied file in mpeg format to play with on your computer.

Come on prius, show me that 45mpg @ 80mph lets roll!

Lou did OK for maiden voyage on new engine combination. 7.45 @ 96 mph got some work to do on the tuning & 60 ft. times were bad. But right now it's probably running good enough to deal with any pesky 300 ZX'S. I didn't want to become involved with this foolishness.But certain disrespectful rouge infidels bent on age discrimination & profiling have driven me to this.I'm slow to anger but justice will be served to these heretics.

HAHAHA.. like i stated, it's the wife's toy, i can PM you her e-mail if you want to call her out for a race.. i want your T when mine arrives out..

just talked to them and they are doing to install a anti roll piece (not a roll bar) to help keep the car straight on 15pound launch. the upper control arms are not handling it alone because the car is to heavy.. the car wil be finished next week, then all i have to do is set up the moving company.. the count down starts ..
