I plan on going that day. It's from 6pm-10pm and it's only 35 bucks for car and driver. This should give us enough time to tinker with our toys and iron all the bugs. Okay, now who want's to go?

****, I'm in. if my car runs..

Im in, for some

was already planing on that day im there

doubnt ill have my tranny done and in by then. I hope so. i was out a few weeks ago and it was just slippin too much 2-3 shift.

Its April 28?? COOL!! Im for sure down! Ive been wanting to see what my car can do after that tune i did! Count me in for sure!!

Grudge fest?? Whats does this mean anyway's

count me in if i could replace my clutch master in time and score a set or drag radials

It's pretty much like a test-n-tune but you can pick who you want to run against with. So, let say if someone form TGO claims their car is faster than yours but you totally disagree then there's a grudge match.

OKAY, now who thinks their car is faster/quicker than Ramair? Speak Up...

I think my car is faster than that 14 second 406 sittin' under your hood

hey isnt it the 26th on sat bennie?

28th isnt on the schedule

on their Grudge Fest page it list April 28th but on their calendar its the 26th. I just check a calendar and the 28th is a monday

I've been dying to run my car but I've never even been to the strip before. Somebody want to help the rookie out if I go? Would be great to tune my WOT.

do it.

I just noticed that too. I was telling Marc about it and was telling him the 28th but when we looked at the calendar, that's monday. So I said 26th then.

Okay so I guess I will be lining up with Kairless. Better boost it up because I finally learn how to shift my auto trans. 1-pull-2-pull-3 there you go I just need to keep that in mind

I'll challenge Bennie, because I think he will probably just red light under pressure.
Rocklin Automotive will give away a case of Castrol motor oil to the first 2 cars that beat Bennie in a grudge match. (after i do)

I will take that offer!! What time are you guys going out there?

I'm gunna have to go to this one too. I won't run the Audi but I will take pics and video. Joey, I still wanna take a ride in that thing for a little more motivation.

I'd run the convertible, but not sure the thing would stay together. How fast should a 305 TPI with a T-5 run? No subframe connectors, stock tires and inexperience at the wheel.

16's

You got to race the Audi Steve! LOL... No problem. You can come with me on a run. I know for sure once your done taking a ride with me your going to want to buy an LS1 right then an there LOL

I ran the audi twice last time I went to the track with Del. I think I ran a 16.8 or something at 92. With these stock Audi clutches you can't launch above 3,000 rpm without it slipping.

heheh.

I will do my best to make it out there, to race.

I might go too. I just just ordered a headlight repair kit from http://www.top-downsolutions.com/ to fix my headlights. I'd like to test them out. It was'nt to fun last year on Excelsior Rd when my headlights kept falling down every time I hit a bump

Does anyone has any real times (E.T.'s) for their 3rdGen. What is the field going to look like? (even expected E.T.'s) Post em!
Mine?? should be mid to low 12's!

I ran a 13.9 @ 102mph last year If could learn how to drive I'm sure I can knock that down a little

10's..


lol..

Marc, I cant tow my car over as soon as I thought. I need to buy a new ecm now

Im thinking mid 13's

Low 13's for me most likely.

ahh another 14 sec run for me. we'll see.

Perfect cuz if i win, more oil for me ehh. Synthetic please! But can I have mobil 1 10w-30? 2 cases will do and also M1 1324 oil filter. I need it for the ZR-1. Will race for oil.

Note: Don't bring a knife at the gun fight. Run what you brung, no excuses. Keep the baby bottles filled and warm and those blower lubed

Benny, I am so angry with myself that my ecm is gone!! I wanted to show you old folks how us young guns run the show nowadays.

I think i will be able to make it there... Rockin the 15's anyone got a helmet i can borrow? Hey OUTATIME GTA can i follow you over? never ben.

I can bring an extra helmet, its a motorcycle helmet size Large.

You won't need a helmet - Unless you are expecting 13.9 or better.

Yeah, we'll touch base before then to confirm.

Hey thanks. I always wanted to go... I don't think I will break into the 13's, will be real happy with 14's with my stock motor and shitty tires. What time does this thing start?

Low 13's for me. I have a dirt bike helmet. will that work?

Dirt bike helmet is perfect and that's what I have I believe they only check for DOT/SN2000 cert sticker.

See you there

what is the DOT/SN2000?? is that the date that the helmet needs to be?

I think all helmets need to have a sticker on the back saying they are approved by "DOT" (Dept of Transportation).

Snell (named after Pete Snell, race driver who died) is a slightly higher certification that exceeds the DOT specs of which the current standard is SN2000.

Sac Raceway requires at least SFI approved, which I believe most current ones are.

Note: Don't bring a knife at the gun fight.

Wow, now its getting down & dirty. Note to Bennie, be careful when racing your boss, if you win you might lose!

I hope to be there on Saturday, but we need helmets Anyone have suggestions as to where to get an approved helmet?

i really hope i can go to this

if i can get out of work

I miss my GTO... was just knocking off tenths every pass...... Bennie - I need to come over to the garage more and start planning the next project!

Who are you?

and you need a helmet only if you plan to break into 13's

Hey Travis I'm James, the guy with the 92 white car/black stripes. I came to the GTG with my neighbor who has the 91 black vert. I know you are a funny guy, but you don't think my all stock car can break into the 13's? The car's in Marc's shop right now. Him and Bennie are giving a little something special to it, but not too special to beat them

i had a factory freak for an iroc, i dont know if ken told you that or not

but ive had the fastest stock iroc ive known of. when i used to run it i would snag a 14.2 at 98.9mph with a 1.960ft theres just not the horse power to support it

and btw ill be there supporting you guys in the cavy

Thanks for the support. Your time info is appreciated. I guess I'll be lucky if I can get into the 15's.

My stock l98 did a 14.5 with the previous owner.

stock? no.

special goodies?
please share a PM would be fine

James...we wont let your new secrets out. Lets make sure what ever we do works for your application.
Travis, how do you need a new ECM? There has to be a 100 of them sitting in the wrecking yard. If you tow your car to the GRUDGEFEST, & I'll put my ECM in your car so you can run.
I'm looking at buying a new trans & re-gearing my rear diff by the Grudge Match. Maybe thats the diff between Men & boys!!!
