i believe its over.

 

bump. info???

 

As I was told, I think they are traveling up to willow springs-streets of willow today.

Tite Lips signing of from Cali..

 

Robi, were you representing BR in the shootout?

I am sure people can be level headed in these threads...people just want information

 

Sorry to hear you had those troubles. I had many similar problems with my head gaskets lately also.

It can be rather annoying - thats for sure.

 

He was using a BR stage 4 car with dyno flash - but it seems his machanic screwed him over as it took him like two days to replace the clutch

I think there is a lesson to be learned in all of this by the members and evo owners

If you keep your car riaght at 350 whp or less - it gives you useability and relaibaility just like a stock evo

Once you start to approach 400 whp plus - the evo looses dependability and reliability to the extent that event "expert tuners" have a hard time getting an evo to the show on a date certain

Personally, I will be keeping my car in present tune for a few more weeks to brek into the 10's - - - then i will be going back more towards stock and a basic reflash to provide stock like opertaion and reliability - something about 360 whp on pump gas for dialy use

 

Al, Thanks for starting the thread and your input. I guess we will all have to wait for the magazine to hit the stands for the full story.

I sure hope that at least a few off the tuners put down some crazy numbers and times. I don't want to see another article like the C&D article where most of the cars (I know, not all. I think the Visnu and RMR cars were relatively inexpensive except for the high dollars wheels) had big dollars spent for not much performance increase. Then when it was all over, a stock Z06 blew them all away.

 

Wow... No Automotosports, Buschur racing, Extrememotorsports or Pruven. That sucks.

It sucks they are so dranonian that no one is willing to talk - I acually know the whole story but had to promise to keep my mouth shut

They are like a bunch of high school gosip queens

All I can say is that the results are not that impressive to me as they are all what I was doing like 6 months ago

Of course they wouldn't dare let me go to one of these events

I am in the process or organizing an OPEN evo tuner shottout with another major magazine - no games - who ever shows up can participate - no politics - just time slips and dyno sheets

I believe that evo owners would be interested to see what ALL the "tuners" are doing - not just the same ones agains and again

 

thats what im talking about right there ^^^^^^

 

Al, why were you not able to participate or even attend the event?

 

he previously stated he was not invited

 

does anyone have any idea how long it will take the shootout to show up in SCC?? like which month's issue?

 

So shiv you were able to change the head and gasket and continue or were you DNF'D???


Also I know that a clutch is alittle more time involved than a head but why couldn't the bushur car get a new clutch installed and back up and running???

I really wanted to see what the top tuners on this site were compared to each other...That is a bummer...

 

they were scurred of al
