Nah he sold it to some yahoo on here lol.Im still very undecided on what I want to do with my car.One day I want to turbo it,then next day supercharge it,its just back and forth.Ill be NA for a while,but im still on my mission to hit 14's with stock internals no power adders.well see how that works haha.Ill prolly end up putting a 75 shot to her.

laamee! i say supercharge it because its pretty much a direct bolt on and cheaper, turbo that thing and youre gonna need internals because im sure you wont stay low on the boost and for 14s add DR's complete the boltons and wait for mid january haha

Ran my car last night at Speedworld. It was 84*. My best time was a 14.0 at 101 with a 2.3 60ft. This was my first time with this car at the track. I beat two srt4's and my friends turbo h22 j spec Prelude.

Hey Buzz,
Was that you at the autocross at firebird a couple weeks ago? If so, are you planning on going to the next event?

Hey Tyler, yes it was me at that event. I also plan on attending the next one. I just got home from the Tucson event. What a blast! Quite different running a parking lot/skid pad than the track. On the race track you basically keep it on the track and avoide the cones. Keeping track of where you are on the skidpad was quite a bit more challenging.

Hopefully I'll see ya at the October 11th event at Firebird.

Cheers,

John

I had tons of fun and can't wait till the 11th. I'm a little confused though because registration on azsolo.com doesn't seem to be up yet. Have you registered? If so, where?
I'm sure the course will be different this time, but I really think that with better driving I could have gotten a 73s last time. I managed a 75 but with 2 cones, and 77 with 1 cone, and then a 78. I can't wait to experience more!
Anyways, I'll see you (and anybody else who wants to come out) on the 11th!

Cool! My focus was on having clean runs. I didn't hit anything on any of my runs. I think my times were 80, 77, 75.6 75.3. That last one was with a totally blown corner. I'd say it would have been worth at least 1.5 seconds... Such is the 'game' of auto crossing though!

Last weekend at Tucson was a different story. The course was on a large parking lot and it was a lot more confusing as to where to go next. I did a 55 on my 1st run, a 52 on my second run...my 3rd run I DNF'd as I did a course deviation. (I got ballsy and started trying to carry more speed) 4th run would have been a which would have netted me 1st in novice instead of 2nd but I hit the 1st cone as I left the start-area! I left there thinking of all the places I could have made up time! Quite fun. The traction was very different as the texture of the asphalt was very course.

I look forward to the 11th as well. It looks like it's going to be on skid-pad 4. Which means it will be a very tight course... Not the best for our high horse power FWD's.

They're also saying the surface might not be fully 'cured' so it should be interesting.

SPECTATE? C'mon...it's only 40 bucks...35 if you pre register at azsolo.com For that you'll get a weekend scca membership, and at least 4 runs around the auto cross course. It's seriously the most fun you can have in your car with all of your clothing on. Oh and if you run in 2 events, you can use those weekend memberships to get $30 off of an actual SCCA membership if you're so inclined.

DO IT! Don't be a wall flower! It's easy and fun!!
