Monkey, in order for me to finish the optimum shift point calculation, I'm going to need to see one of your dyno charts. Depending on what software was used on your car, I'm sure they can send one via email. In the meantime, here are two sites we spoke about earlier.

So they werent parking their bikes seperate from everyone that didnt have the new ****. I am shocked!!

 

I disappear from the board for a few days and I spend an hour reading all the new pages! WTH

So we're looking at leaving around 1430 to HIN? Are we going to convoy down from Target or will this be individual?

Sabot: What color is the wifeys 8?

Pure: No one cares about your coffee or what book you're reading...NERD!!! haha

8/9 vs X: Smash them Honduhs, Slowbarus and Doughbalts! My car is a frequent target for their revving and general dumbassery ( I think they like the bright color). Hell...going to PT yesterday morning I almost had an SRT4 wreck in the lane next to me cuz he saw me and pulled away. I guess he forgot about the car in front of him cuz his brakes went on REAL quick!

I don't hate the X it's just the fact that it's new and noticeable and I rarely see a wave from the drivers. Maybe they're fiddling with all the knobs in cabin or trying to figure out how to properly work the double clutch. I've seen 8 & 9 drivers, that I don't know, give me a dumbface when I pull up next to them and say "hi" as well.

I will be unavailable for most of the weekend. Pure knows why...haha. So I won't see any of you on Friday but I will be convoying to HIN on Saturday (if that is what we end up doing)

 

You mean the calipers? I can do that on my own with a wire brush, Red Duplicolor Spray paint and some High Temp Clear coat. I just need the Brembo Stickers, that's all...

 

I say we meet up at 1300 and that gives us 30 minutes to BS and head out at 1330. Traffic is going to be a b!tch and so is parking when we get there. That is the time that I will be showing up at Target and I will be leaving at 1330. Sabot and I were planning on leaving at that time.

 

Wife's Evo is Apex Silver. 1300 Saturday FTW

 

Monkey, I went "practicing" last night. I couldn't wait until my coffee buzz died down. I guess you can say I did a "semi" 1-2 power shift as I can't really remember if I kept my foot all the way on the gas. When I didn't hear any grinding and found out that I was actually in 2nd gear I started smiling and then nearly ran up to 9K as I forgot I still had my foot on the gas. I completely murdered the 2-3 as I was on brain overload. Keep foot down...shift really quick...watch the rev limiter...keep foot down... Oh well, I'll just have to try again later. Oh yeah, I'm waiting on a response about if BR offers a military discount.

 

I just put my baby to sleep, she'll be hibernating for about 12 months. But when I return she'll be reborn into something new!!! I can't wait!

 

I'm wondering if I have different gear ratios in my car since I actually never really have to panic between shifts. I remember when I was on the stock tranny I had some problems. Now when I shift, I shift very relaxed and take my time, even when I am messing around. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gb4XDQfFbZs

 

Pix?

1pm Saturday should work fine.

Who else will be rolling at that time?

1. Sabot
2. monkey_187
3. gravvyboy
4.
5.

 

I feel you on that man. The "mamba" has about another week and into the den she goes. Once the metamorphosis is complete after the long winter, she will be a different animal. Stay tuned...

By the way, what unit are you in?

 

Just a stock 03 Evo I'll get some day pics later.

 

I'll try to make it by that time. I am going to MSR to pick up some wheels.
