Funny you say that, Cy broke (split the case) the front diff last Friday, they finished installing the new Quaife Friday night and then proceeded to whoop my *** yesterday and today, impressive really. So breaking stuff probably won't help, diff's are a hard install.

Corey will be driving Cy's car the entire year, Cy's car is obviously BSP trim. Corey's car is untouched from STU. He is not running it this year. I hope them being in the class will improve my driving. I am signing up for Evo school 2, need to up my game man................ or I could throw more $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ at the car...yea!

after talking with the two of them (Corey & Cy) I am half tempted to pull the IX turbo and drop back to BSP for the same reason you stated Mike. descisions, descisions...

nice video, you were flying as usual. I can't wait till I'm cofortable enough to go WOT that much. I now wish I would have recorded my runs. I know some people are against them, but I would suggest the go pro HD. video quality is really surperb.

Pete, I'm going to borrow adams roller and git-r-done before our next event.

I got my first videos today with the GoPro HD. The quality is awesome. I will ask Chau to edit the video and post it up. As for the run, I didn't fair as well as you folks with the bigger tires. Car blew an i/c pipe in the first run, so I was alittle uncomfortable running out the second. Third run was best, and messed up the forth going too hot. Traction traction traction!!!!

Marc, I'd say you pay Chuck Norris to sidekick those fenders like he did on Cy's car! I would pay for that type of cleanliness!

Man a weekend of sleeping on floors/couches has taken its toll on me. Its good to be back home.

Took a tour of the Sam Adams place while i was up there. It was a really good tour. They let us taste three different kinds of malts and they also handed out some hops and let us smell them and check them out. They also gave us free beer tasting glasses and even some beer to fill them up with.

Chu, which IC pipe did you blow. I'll bet it was a non-OEM one, or one with a non-oem clamp. I've only ever blown aftermarket pipes, never blown an OEM pipe unless it had an aftermarket clamp on it... having pipes blow off doesn NOT inspire confidence on the track.

Its the oem pipes, with oem clamp, right off the throttle-body! Sucks for sure! I turned the boost down two full turns. I've never blown a pipe before, but one time is enough to do t-bolts. I have t-bolts on all the lower ones. 28psi doesn't help I guess!

T-bolt clamps are great. Fixed my problem when I was using the stock UICP.

Is anyone running the Carbotech AX6 pads? I wanted to give them a shot for the front of my car to replace the Ferrodo's. I assume the Carbotechs will work better since the AX6 is an Autox compund.

I know Marc uses the XP10's on the Vette, don't know about the AX6's though.
