I think the million dollar quetion is when is that bucket of bolts your calling a street car going to come out and play with us.

He needs to sell the hauler first to pay the local crack dealers then he can pay the sonoma guys to finish it....wait, i'm thinking of someone else lol...

Gae, what times are you turning at t-hill on the Hoosier's?
You going with Gregs group in May? i'm 90% sure i'll be there.....

Do yourself a HUGE favor and don't get caught up in what times someone else is running.... These cars are ALL different -- different power - different weight - different gearing - different size and compounds of tires (for instance I run a Hoosier A7 - whereas Gae runs the R6).... Different suspensions - Different SKILL levels.

Figure if you can run Thunderhill EAST (the original) with the Cyclone at 2:10 you'll be running with the bulk of the "group"... Without the Cyclone (known as the Bypass) that's a 2:06.

The Lotus is going to run that sub 2's --- and there's no way our old crap is going to get there without MAJOR suspension changes - and weight loss - and horsepower increases. Or MAJOR skill improvements. Best and cheapest fix for the car, is the nut behind the wheel.

No times with the Hoosiers yet Mike. As soon as I get the opportunity I'm going to run an NCRC or NASA event and see how it goes. Goal is 1:59's.

T-Hill with Greg and the boys is a no brainer.

Reminds me of the old saying... 'People who live in a glass(man) house shouldn't throw stones... unless they're absolutely sure they can get away with it.'

Yeah. I don't post in this thread much I but I read it. I'm looking forward to what you learn with your traqmate data and how the car is doing these days.
