I don't think the stang will be ready for this. However Gross will be in town, so maybe I can talk him into bringing the porche up.
awd4kicks
Darryl & Gross! I haven't seen those two in for ever....

Darryl, we would have it any other way. Bring that bad boy up.

Jason...make sure Kris comes weather he brings the Porsce or not!
awdnot2
The plan is to bring it up, although it is short one key component. Anyone have a 23 spline transfer case they need destroyed?
dualdj1
Brent may have one, he has all kinds of spare parts laying around.
bluzvr4
mistu90 had a few too
mitsu90
I have a couple let me count the splines and make sure they are 23
treydawgs4g63T

You better find him two so he can make two passes! 8)
dualdj1
Me and Gross will be there for sure. Possibly with a real loud porche, pulled the mufflers off yesterday cause he got a wild hair on improving performance or some shit.

Excellent news.... Why am I not really surprised that Kris would pull the mufflers off of his Porsche?

I'm going early to open the gates and get things ready. I think we are going to run Evan's freshly re-powered BMW 325 for fun.

Will any of you be setting a up a caravan to the track? Those trips are always filled with some fun jackassery.

I've got some great news of additional entertainment for our Sunday event!

You can now expect to see a Jet car make a couple hits durring our track rental!
We will also have a number of 10.5" tire race cars and a Nostalgia drag car making Test and Tune runs throughout the day.
This is a nice bonus for us all to check out.

See you there!

Haven't finished cleaning it yet.......

I think I let it hibernate too long, just working out some bugs.
bluzvr4
bummer i was hoping to see it in action

Alright everybody...Today is the day!

I just talked to Cordova at 7:50am this morning and they plan to have clear skys by race time at noon. It's dry there now with overcast skies. All the rain is headed to Peoria. Perservier for great racing weather because we will have to probably drive through the rain to get to sunny skies.

See you there!
bluzvr4

wish we could've made it, too late of a saturday for both me and gross. How many cars were there? Hope you had a good turnout.

On a side note, maybe we can hit BWW sometime before the end of the month. Gross in town till start of july.
black92_tsi_awd

Good to see you again Hult... That is one of the sweetest looking 1G DSM's I've seen in a long time. Good to hear your numbers have improved. If you don't me asking, what was your personal best with the manual trans?

BTW - When I left peoria Sunday morning it was like driving in a hurricane. I assume that's why most from our area didn't make it. laugh.gif
