I definitely want to hit it sometime this year, but July is shot - maybe August? Also, Fontana is opening in September right? We could all meet there on opening day.

You come all the way from Arizona to race at Carlsbad? That's gung-ho! I won't be able to make it this time, but don't give up on me. I will go!

Yeah, I drive from Yuma. It's about 2 1/2 hours to get there. The only other tracks around me are in Phoenix (too hot, same distance) and in Mexico (nope, not racing there)

smokedchevy · 07-10-2001, 04:31 PM

Where exactly is Carlsbad in relation to Ventura? Ventura is about one hour north of L.A.

Skyman · 07-10-2001, 04:50 PM

Right around a 3 hour drive from ventura.
Its near san diego, its not that bad though.

Thought I would have my car ready but I still have some work/tuning to do. Can't make it on the 14th, going to have to push it back a weekend to the 21st.

Remounted my nitrous bottle yesterday though, let that *&8!#^#^!% at the track try to pull on it now! It's now mounted properly (bottle running paralell with the car and on a 30* tilt)
Still have some re-wiring to do though and its going to take a while

Sounds good, I should have some heads and intake by then.

I still need to go soon, I HAVE to get a good baseline to see what it can run.

then its gonna BONEOUT! You and Sky will be dueling it up and comparing slips

ed1371 · 07-13-2001, 03:49 PM

I don't see me running what sky runs! My car is just way to heavy to see the times he is without juice!

fastang · 07-13-2001, 06:58 PM

Are you going to ditch the bottle? Why wouldnt you squeeze as well like he is? I just ordered the same heads he uses except I will be using a slightly larger Bcam and a TFSR intake with 30lb injectors. By september I should be able to get a bottle too

No, I am not ditching the bottle. What I was trying to say is that he runs faster than I do off of it (hell, he is faster off the bottle than when I am on it!) Even with the engine mods I am going to be doing, I will still be about a second slower than him.
