I would not mind the high rise if it was cheap enough (sub 100)

well that car that team auto has, has the high rise - is Sport Red Tintcoat is ok with you - then give them a call... they were very reasonable on the seats.

but even with them being reasonable with me on the seats, I'd wager they would want at least $100 for the high rise - I've heard it's a royal PITA to remove...

I didn't really look at the trunk lid for any kind of secondary damage, but I'm pretty sure it was a-ok...

can't be too many SRTC high rise cars out there...




btw... it was nice meeting the couple of you this evening!
(sorry I had to duck out so quick - I have an early morning tomorrow, and a long day of driving at that.)

Tires are like a babys Ass lol. PlUs I didn't think I'd get off work early enough. I Also thought you had to have a helmet to race.. I'm thinking next time as I really regretted it once I was there. Is there another track day planned? Any more Friday under the lights type deals?

What was the best pass from a Balt you seen or did bluelighning?

I saw a blue one run a 14:24 Hower being dark I couldn't tell if it was you or the other blue ss sc that was there.


The track seemed to be better prepped after the rain lol.

Just went to team.. They want 350 for the hi rise and 750 with the trunk.. No taillights at that price. They have a USB headunit but won't sell for less than 200 "because it's so rare"
there prices are all based off autopac. What autopac pays we pay. Auto PAC over pays....

Yup the next is September 17th. We will all be going out again. And that was me you saw haha. I was the fastest there even though my times sucked. I just cant hook. My car spins like mad. I even have my boost restricted in 1st gear lauching it at 1500rpm and it still spins like crazy haha. I just starting to get the hang of it right at the end. My best pass was 14.0@103mph. 60ft was 2.3. I think next time i'm going to bring kennyspecs drag radials and have that a go

Definitely a good plan.

I found allot of people on sport tires were "heating up there tires" which isn't really beneficial on sport tires to begin with but weren't spinning them enough to even dry them off let alone heat them up. Then spinning like mad off the line.

Ya i know Andy was doing a burnout and he said he found his times to be better. But i would just go around the water box and give em a spin. The track was definatly better prepped after the rain lol. Wierd

Best idea on street tires is doing a pass to warm them up. not a wanna-be burn out

Like i said bluelighting you need rotated mounts.

I just wanted to do a burnout to see if it made any difference at all. Actually the one burnout I did I made my best pass lol. 15.1@94 haha. Besides , who doesn't enjoy a fwd burnout from time to time?

It was a sweet night tho. Nice to finally meet some of yous. Sept 3 is the next one I believe.

I cleaned my air filter, throttle body, changed my plugs, fuel filter, maf sensor, Sunday. The car may run a 15.0 I hope lol.

Oh ya for sure, i know. Kevin is selling me his upper mount because the F23 tranny he bolted in doesnt fit it. I emailed Sean at OTTP to get the spacer for the rear mount to make their Stage 1 kit.
