Sorry man I just spent $1700 on a tvs and 2.9" pulley. I still have a 30 psi gauge, flywheel and fix my exhaust to buy. If I could get them for the right price I would but I really shouldn't even buy them in the first place haha.

Ah I think I'll pass. More due to the fact that I forgot about my drag radials. 255/60-16 + lowering probably won't equal good news. And my car blows at gimli with street tires

I may change my mind by then. On the other hand for $80 it's a cheap experiment to try. Nick at work with the Audi is being the devil on my shoulder lol

so you guys wanna know something (which I find) funny?

I'm now having another tie to winnipeg;

Last friday I met up with a guy who was looking for a place to rent (I had a listing on kijiji for a room mate);
well he's living in winnipeg, but a little while ago applied for a job at kindersly transport ~ and the calgary office called him about a job...
other than thinking "WTF" ~ he arranged to come down for an interview (they offered to fly him in);
Just got an email last night asking if it would be ok to move here mid (this) month;
apparently he's currently thinking of retiring his car - flying down, and buying something here...

if I end up doing the odd weekend commute so he can grab stuff, maybe I can make it to a "wing meet"?

Theres 2 lanes for grudge racing so you can race friends or call someone out to race. Or go into another set of lanes and race whatever is beside you. It's a blast. Especially when we get a bunch of us Balt guys out to play around.
Those friday night fun races sound perfect.
Ill talk to you guys in a couple months about it to get a bit more info.
Would be optimal to trailer the car down there but i think i might have to suck it up and drive it 4 hours to gimli... AND hope that I can still drive it back after a night of drag racing lol
Have you ever see a TC break down during the races? That would be bad.... huge tow bill to get back home (dryden, ont). Would still be a blast!

All of us SC's and TC's are modded and we have had zero issues except for a couple of us cooking clutches from lots of passes or in my case launching on drag radials haha. But still able to drive home. You can always stay out here for a night at my place before going home so you aren't driving back to Dryden at 12am. Have any mod's done to your car?
