Directions
http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&c...a=X&oi=local_result&resnum=1&ct=directions-to


here is their website. Its 10 bucks to race

i think its actually 15 bucks to race, 10 just to watch. but who cares, its just 5 dollars more. they will even charge you 10 dollars for each passenger just to come and watch so if you wanna save some dough, hide your friend in the trunk

 

[JCell]

ah, hiding in the trunk, reminds me of the days in HS lol

 

[mx-p5]

I'd love to go and run some mean 17-18 second runs, but, too far up

 

[laracroft]

I'd go, but I already have plans.

Plus my clutch disc needs replacing. All that hp & tq is finally catching up. lol

 

[JCell]

you know, a smaller turbo will help with the extra hp problem....maybe a gt25, id gladly trade with ya if itll help ur issues

(lol) Yous a funny guy!

If I traded on ANYTHING, it'd be my setup for someone with a Hiboost kit with a T-3/4. Bigger turbo, more hp - less tread on my tires ftw tho. lol

 

[TWISFM]

tomorrow people. anyone else? professor?

 

[JCell]

should be fun, specially if the weather stay nice and cold like this

 

[TWISFM]

tminus 6 hours

 

[TWISFM]

its so close i can smell the rubber

 

[JCell]

cool meet, the track was packed but i managed to get 2 runs in

14.8 and 14.7 the first one i feathered the clutch too much for fear of breaking something(prep tracked), the second i hopped for a lil bit

cant wait to try again with a 626 manifold and motor mounts

 

[MSP4G63]

nice numbers! i spun some of first even though i feathered the gas and then spun second for a couple seconds with the no-lift shift damn traction problems, but i'd rather spin then break... like last time i went.

 

[JCell]

no-lift shift? on a protege?

props! i know the ms3 can do it, but ive never seen it in a protege

 

[MSP4G63]

yea i got it forgot to mention that when i told you the mods i always forget i have it till i drive the car and i see the controller box light up the inside of the car, and i gots 2-step but it aint workin need to fix wiring.

 

[MSP4G63]

oh and i forgot to ask but wheres the vids!!!

 

[JCell]

i believe there is an issue with the videos.... something about the camera man thinking he was recording when he wasnt, hopefully im wrong

 

[TWISFM]
