Chu, you don't remember Jeff showing up at the Eagles charity event claiming to have left his car on all night while he was passed out drunk. Its OK Jeff, at least you were home and not trying to drive anywhere.
I remember him being there, but dont recall talking about his car.

I'm really excited for this weekend...and next year for that matter. Seems like the region is working very hard to get us into some bigger lots. I would love to have an event at the Willow Airbase if it works out. This weekend is a nice end to the year.

isn't this weekend dyno day at krazyhouse? or is that the next weekend?

jeff got drunk and let him car running all night? is that an old story? because i remember jeff telling me that he doesn't drink because he does stupid stuff when he's wasted like locking his keys in the car or leaving it running (something like that) and trying to break the window to get in.

jeff care to clarify?

I wasn't drunk and I just left my key on and woke up to a dead battery, and it happened about a month ago

But I may have told you this story
Buddy started his van and locked it outside the bar, I grabbed a rock to break his window and he said let me do it its my van, so I gave him the rock and he backed up and threw it into the side of his van missing the window. There is still a huge dent in his van and I cant remember laughing that hard ever.

Marc, if you do make it, I'd like to see the Vette on this thing. I'd like to try and bring that 7 up for a run. It has only been on Dynojets.

its not a definate, but I will try my best to swing by. I don't know if I'll be able to get a dyno run in though, isn't it first come first serve? I'm curous what that FD will run? I say 260whp, then it blows an apex seal.

LOL, you're low-balling the car. It made 390 on a dynojet a year ago. I dont think anything below 300hp, but thats still alot for a car that weights 2500lbs.

Thats a funny story. Never had that happen to me. Leaving sun roof open FTW.

I don't have alot of faith in dyno numbers, but I thought their mustang dyno reads low, so I was under estimating. That and I didn't know what all you had done to it, other then the obvious FMIC. I wouldnt be surprised if my z06 only does in the 500whp range (only, like thats not alot )

Just talked to the wife about this and amazingly she said we don't have anything going on so I 'think' I have a green light the whole weekend. Hopefully it stays that way!

I understand the whole numbers thing is all a game. But its nice to know nonetheless. I dont know all the mods either, only that it has a Borg Warner turbo on it, and a damn restrictive Apexi World Series exhaust. Anyways, I'm not sure if I'll be able to get it up there so we'll see!
