Kenny, we need to sit down with either an MBC, or ECU controlled boost and nail out a solid 25-ish psi tune on pump gas. I think your race gas wasn't so racy, and the tune obviously needed a lot more work if timing only had to drop a couple of degrees when switching back to pump fuel. Car did feel good this weekend though. Much smoother than it normally is. We'll get it there, just will take time, a better tune, and better weather. Seeing the traps of the other cars similarly modded makes me feel a little bit better. I also think that MMS's trap speeds might be artificially low since they replaced the lights. Who knows, but the car runs well, better than it ever has before and that certainly counts for something.

 

Q, cant wait to start our project.... i think this is going to turn out SICCCKKK... i cant wait to get it going!!!!

 

Anyone want to lend me a hand or two ona timing belt job soon?? C

 

I'll help a brother out as long as I'm not busy. I need to familiarize myself with doing it on an Evo since mine is due as well.

 

no problem! i ALWAYS get burned if i don't put sunsreen on. I'm glad both of you had a good time. you were driving really well so keep it up. hopefully you guys can make the next one which is our big event for the year, MILE LONG COURSE. gets interesting trying to remember the whole track but its so much fun to be out there for that long of a course.

 

what about a lancer bumper... i could rock on of them!!! sleeper style!!!

 

Where's the new place going to be?

 

oh ya hey sara, were gunna go up to the tac event in huntsville on june 21st.. is it worth the drive? ive never been there.. i was told the surface is 10x better then the brc.. thats about all i know.. figured it could be some good practice..

 

Huntsville? That's where I live!!

 

The HUntsville AX track is nice, but I think a lot of people will be at the BRC for the shoot out. C

 

ya.. ill be at both. the shootout should be alot of fun

 

whats the shootout!???

 

its the SSSS Speedsouth Super Summer Shootout. Its July 12th. its an ALSCCA autocrossing event being held at the BRC(birmingham race course)(aka. Derby to some).. its basically the biggest event of the year.. 2 minute long course to race, and thats alot larger then the normal autox events..

everyone runs.. then they calculate pax times and get the 10 fastest, and they eliminate each car untill there is a defined winner for the whole day.. should be alot of people at the event..


the autox on the 21st in huntsville is a TAC event at john hunt parks or something like that, i have a few people going with me, if it doesnt rain i will be at both events, really excited about the Shootout on July12th.. should be tons of fun.. i wish my turbo was small enough to autox in.. but o well. i still have alot of fun fighting to stay in boost on course.. lol

 

Lol, i was talking to Q about the turbo thats on ur car....U should do much better on AX with just an Evo 8 turbo, but it sure hard to beat on the street ( where you want). C
Hope to have my timing belt doen before the shoot out so I can run my car. C

 

what size turbo is it?
