Haven't registered yet for Sunday, will do so tomorrow.
Who's even left in attendance!?/In need of a car!? Feel like I may be standing alone in this ordeal. Just hope I can get moved out of my house completely both Friday and Saturday to actually make it, that would be quite the bummer otherwise.

Pistol check pm buddy, little late to send a text/call at the moment

I just got the special tool for installing upgraded Valve springs and retainers with the head still on the car so I figure might as well do kelfords, upgraded lifters, springs, retainers, tensioner, waterpump, timing belt and idler pulley as well as serpintine belt while I am at it.. LMK if any of you guys want them, they will be coming off in the next 2 mos. or so

BTW valve spring replacement is good times!!
Nice choice. I thought about doing springs and retainers while the head is off my car but couldn't justify it with cams I have in there now. Where are you getting your parts from for the 60k? I highly recommend RussellM and its free shipping on those timing kits.

I would take you up on this but it looks like I'm not going to go after all. Good luck on the move.

I should be there this Sunday. Looks like rain again... nothing like last time though.

I've been thinking about sending this IX turbo I have sitting around to CBRD for a BBK full upgrade. what are cars with the full trapping???? I don't keep up with all the dyno wars and whos reads low/high, trap speeds are a much better indicator of power IMO.

shows how much I visit the drag racing forum, just found this thread:

https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/dr...rag-times.html

only two people so far with trap speeds and neither of them are steller. I was hoping it would trap low 120s under good conditions...

good to know someone is doing an all out run with it, that should give an 'absolute best case'.

boostedtres there will be plenty of EVO's there on Sunday. Most of the guys who run don't post in this thread. Like I said, I'll be there and it looks like Doug will too. You should try to make it if you can its a good time.
