Well, maybe not... I tried 3 places to order a new tire overnight and no one could get it here by Friday.

...and I don't think I can do it on a donut! LOL.

What crappy timing....

Was nice to meet you Marc.

Was fun but cold... too windy and 1/4 mile was cancelled..

Had fun tho, the 7 brought waaay more attention than I would have thought. My wife, while cold got a kick out of everyone checking out our car.

Dynoed FINALLY @ 308.3 hp , torque number was skewed though in the 270 range. (because of something when they were setting up) Now I just need some tuning!

Wanted to stay to have car judged in show but was cold and wife was hungry. If the amount of attention was any clue we would have placed in something.

Missed most of the drifting while in line for dyno but was a good trip...

Marc, shoot me a pm and I'll send you that part.

Any chance of you posting the dyno video? Just curious of what pull it was? The 2nd 2 were good but the first pull, the guy was too easy on the throttle and the secondary turbo didn't spool up. Was kinda hoping my car dynoing was in your video.. lol.



Nice captions of the event!

Yeah, I spoke to your friend, was a good time.

I'm a moron, I just realized that it was 2 different people that posted. 1 has a video of my car dynoing and another person posted a video of the event.
