Pete, how can you tell a well prepped track from one that is not from the sidelines?

 

anyone want to buy a fender roller?

colonel you should get it and rent it out

 

can't tell if thats a serious question or a jab at him not being at the track lately.

I'll assume it was serious. I'm not Pete, but you can tell by how well the cars are hooking or how much they are blowing the tires off. Also, if its prepped well, the guys who are walking around the lanes will have their shoes sticking to the ground from the VHT.

 

Not too much actually. I have the ETS uicp and Aem wideband sitting in my room waiting to get put on. Still need to order a boost and fuel pressure gauge. Im going to try and make a triple a-pillar pod.

Im going through inspection on Thursday so after that i should be good to go. Just need to talk to Pete and see what we can work out.

 

it was a serious question.

thanks for answering it.

cool. i'll be interested to see your results.

 

Back from Nats, still recovering from the long ride. It was quite exciting toward the end, weather screwed everyone who ran early in the heat or cars with single drivers, me and me.. So I ended up with all wet or wet but drying line runs. I am not good in the rain nor have I really figured out my wet suspension settings, bad move at Nationals. I finished 10th out of 23, better compared to last years 20th out of 26. At this rate of improvement I will be National Champion in 2 years!
I thought I drove better this year, but on my fast run second day I lost control of car almost spinning twice on the run, left tons of time on course because of that. Wish I would have ran last like the National Champ, this year, would have at least trophy high up I think.

Anyways the drag racing sounds interesting, I have never taken my car to the strip. I am curious what it can do, figure I can get 4 launches out of it without total disaster.

 

Nah Chu is the fender monster. I just make cars fast and pretty.

 

wheres the best spot to tap into for a wideband? Downpipe or test pipe? or does it not matter?

 

pretty?

 

Chu makes it pretty by carefully adding speed dents to cars.
same with front lips on bumpers

 

I powdercoat and add things like street outlawz stickers and stick on fender vents.
In all seriousness the Chuster did a great job rolling my fenders.

 

Here's the video showing how the wheels I posted a few weeks ago were destroyed. This guy is incredible.

Downpipe, between 9 and 3 o'clock, 6-16 inches from the turbo is good

 

I'll go to the track if pete goes to the track, mabye even make it a 3 peat? I need to get the subaru running in case I break my car though..

 

Thanks man, appreciate it.

Im going to be sending you a PM soon, would like to talk to you about getting my car tuned.
