Rockman, I provided the link to the thread for you here is the actual sentence out of the ESA rules, "Good example of a legal appearing car is a Buschur Racing Stage 4 EVO"

Stage 4 has upper and lower i/c pipes in it.

wow, rockman is going to make the haul to ohio? sweet! we're going to have to get your car set on kill mode for the event glad to see the ESA rules are being slightly relaxed to accommodate more racers David

I'm way excited about the race this year, we're going to have one hell of a great time. If anyone is on the fence about going, let me tell you...this is THE event of the year. All of the major players will be there and some ridiculously fast EVO/DSM's.

here's the video I shot last year http://www.racevideoforums.com/forum...-coverage.html

I'll be racing in the event this year and not shooting video so you better get your *** up to Ohio if you want to see what all the buzz is about

As always, I will make the trek from Chitown to Norwalk. Last week I was going to sell my Talon - this week I've decided to keep and may try to race it again this year (last time was at the 2007 DSM Shootout).

FINALLY A STRAIGHT ANSWER thanks MIKE. i swear out of all the venders mike is one of the greatest NEXT TO MELLON lol i hope you still have that br stage 3 head that we talked about when it was either red or that. Well mellon dont really need to many more parts for our special build . Ill call you once i get off work today. Once i get this custom carbon Fiber wind splitter/underbody for my ait front bumper made its off for the head build then all parts shipped to ppi to work there magic. I just need that magical Tune to dial in. Besides before we even head that way you promised me some drag time no sense in having all his power if i cant use it

p.s. david thanks for talking to me directly and i dont know whats on a stage 4 car as i dont own any br products

Stages 1-4 are listed on our site too and have become somewhat of a "standard" as to what people call Staged upgrades.

when you come up to be tuned we need to get started early and knock the tune out, then we can put the g-tech on it and do some practice launches/pulls to get a feel for the ideal launch RPM and shift points. The g-tech will give us a very good idea of where we are. We'll log the runs to make sure the AFR/Knock is in check too.

at the track we may have to adjust the launch RPM based on conditions. I'll bring my laptop for minor adjustments like that.
