Going to be a good show.
Tune that biatch during the night, then you won't impose on business during the day... Just a thought... Unless of course you have noise restrictions to deal with...

Looks like its on for me 100% unless some work related issues arise.

Looking forward to seeing some animals on the dyno as well , are any of the pump gas beasts participating in the dyno shootout??
I know SPIN2GST and I will be there Saturday and Sunday. Not sure about VWJeff or any of the other guys.

9's on 93 isn't going to happen at this event. IF my RS even makes a pass it is going to be on race gas going for a new best.

Well I'm surprised no one else has done this already, but I'd like to thank the guys at Buschur for putting on a great event.. with a decent turn out of cars.. I've never been to the DSM shoot-out so I don't know what it would be in comparison, but great event none the less.
And while I was there I met my personal goal of the day.. And that was hit 12's in my bone stock Evo 8, my very first time ever to a track, and my first manual car to boot!!
Here's the slip, or at least what it looks like:

R/T: .199
60: 1.898
330: 5.395
1/8: 8.311 @ 82.63mph
1000: 10.831
1/4: 12.952 @ 106.32!!!!

I couldn't get my 60' down any lower than that, I had a total of 3, 12 sec. passes and the one that surprised me the most is the one with a 2.0 60" which was a 12.992.
Basically bone stock 05 Evo 8 base GSR.. Only "up-grades" are a Cerametallic Stg. II clutch and a K&N drop-in. I also took out my seats, and spare. So basically I was a touch above a stock RS in weight.. But for my first time out to hit 12's when so many people said to me it couldn't be done, I'm happy!

Great event, and great track prepping... Even though they had to re-prep the track quite a few times because on every launch we were just ripping up that area!!
