Of course those are they take 15 seconds each and isn't much to watch.. But that blows. (pun possibly? heh.) Well will anything be going on then? I'll be out there and might just make a cruise by to see if anything might be worth taking a few pics of.

Anyone, Anyone out there. Do you know anything? (heh)

You Evo Owners SUCK.. (kidding kidding) Last year there was an S4 shootout being held out in Cali by European car.. Well.. Long story short.. There were minute by minute postings of the dyno results..

Those S4 owners were doing one hella job keeping the boards up to date..

With that being said.. My moneys on Buschur..

I do look forward to seeing if the rumor that a few tuners actually blew an engine..

Actually - this has nothing to do with the Evo owners

We are dealing here with the tunning and vending cartel of big business

They have some rules to keep the results secret until the date the mag is published

Al-- Our motor did not "blow". The aftermarket headgasket that was used with the new built head did not seal right from the first time we even started the engine a few days ago. All we did to get the car up and running was to install the orginal head and a factory head gasket. Not as dramatic as I'm sure you were hoping

cheers,
shiv

I own the Buschur stage IV and my Mech screwed up last night and didn't get the new clutch installed in time (21K on the stocker and could still spin the tires through 1st into 2nd) So I misted the Dyno and the rules are DNS/DNF any event=can't continue.... (Dave you don't know hoe sorry I am ;-(. ) The RRE car Blew but got a time I heard so they're putting in a new motor and will be ready in the AM...least that's what I heard... BTW if you live in SOCAL you should visit them and see how a real race shop runs...They completely setup and reworked the JIC coil-overs and settings for my car UNBEF'NLievable differance My JIC's now CONTROL the mass of the car...I thought the BuschurFlash was the best money spent(and for making power it was)...Now when the car comes off a corner it just sqats and jumps in the new direction...John you are a MAGICIAN...and guys this took over 12 hours to get every thing right...cost $1200.00 (much cheaper if I had purchased the JIC's from them)...live and learn... AND WORTH TWICE what they charged me...PM me for a ride.....I promise to scare you into next week.... all while in close to perfect control . See you @ Willow.

Well Is there anything going on today? My flight takes off in 6 or so hours and I'm wondering if I should stop anyplace before heading down to San Diego, or if there is any reason to come back towards the California Speedway on Saturday.
