well, my plans of adding a ram air II hood and 4th gen look alike spoiler went down the frain when I didn't receive a respomse from the guy that sells them. And now, things are falling a little behind and I am hoping to get new rims and hood within the next month and a half and then paint. Still need to find my spoiler I want though.

 

See you there Diemos. That is 1bad3rdgen you have there!

 

My tires come on the 7th. I don't know what is up, but they are sending them. Can we say it is is almost go time. Fuel cell is done and will be here Monday. The throttle switch is in and the nitrous is almost all hooked up.

 

You got NAWS on there? Dang.

 

Damn, bbunting, that's one badasss ride ya got there, just got done going through your picture gallery. Is anybody gonna make it up to Cedar Falls for the track opening TT on April 19th? Gates open @ noon, plus they scehduled a gamblers race, so at least come up and enter, so I can start the season off right with all your donations

 

The NOS (Nitrous Oxide System) is in and armed, just need to make it look pretty and mount the solenoids. That and the issue of filling the tank (money).

 

IHI-thanks- I could use some of your paint expertise. Pretty sure everyone is going to Earlville.

Diemos-I hope that with all of your tires, etc that your NAWS will bite. I can't seem to find my drag radials-they seem to have walked off. I guess it will be the ET Drags for the 19th.

 

I say it will be a nice showdown between a badass IROC and a puny RS.

Is that better?

 

I've got my money on the Iroc jake.

I don't think I'll have my car up and running until about Aug. or so....but she'll be fun when i do

 

You fellas heading to Earlville on the 19th or 20th? and where ya'll gonna be pittin at if your goin on Sunday. I gotta hit my home track opening day (Sat. 19th) before I go down and take all the money in the gamblers in an out of town track. Let me know, otherwise I won't go if nobody will be there on Sun 20th.

 

I myself only got the 19th off to have un an represent for the RS's. But hey it will be fun. Haven't had much luck at CFR so yeah it will be fun at Earville.

 

It aint luck, it's just bad-assed guys like me, on top of their game, takin everybodies money It's a long summer and I plan on hitting as much as possible when time allows, so I'm sure I'll hook up with a few of you guys this year one place or another.

 

Once again talking ****...cant wait to get the 89 up and running..

 

I got alot of the Pro class racers on the CFRacing board goin this winter, they finally caught on to the smack talkin and joined in the ribbing, but there were a few guys that posted that sounded like they came from dirt trackin and were ready to fight-idiots. I've really been gettin in last years Pro class points winners ***, his response after we'd all been goin round and round was " I thought I was the guy goin out this year with a bullseye on my back, but I think you're takin that pressure off me now!"
It's definatly gonna be a change jumping up to Pro class with my car, and then running the S-10 in Super Pro, so hopefully I can adapt, we're setting up both vehicles with the same 3 step and button for a likeness so I don't have to change much from 1 vehicle to the other as far as launch equipment, but time will tell, heck in my bird, I might just go back to foot brakin since I had excellent results last year-the S-10 has a pro-tree trans brake so that'll be real interesting to say the least, once it's proven a straight line launcher. It's been a long winter as we all know and now they're talkin this crazy snow storm comin this weekend-wtf?!!! Can't wait to rip down the track again!!!

 

I hear Ya there...Smack talkin..all part of the game...I'm on a board local here where I get lots of practice!

Hey IHI...you running long tubes on your 3rd Gen?

 

Yeah, as soon as the new house thing is over, I need to get the exhaust redone, mine works great as it neither gained or lost when uncorked-it's just ugly as sin. I'm gonna get the Heddman S-pipes and the pipes down the tunnel like everybody does and see about mounting the muflers at an angle folowing the back seat contour, seen a couple guys do this, and there's a guy in Cedar Rapids running low 10's with his Bird and that's how he's got his exhaust routed, so I need to get down there and check it out when I get a chance.

 

i want to run long tubes...I was thinking of just dumping the exhaust out the sides..I saw one at the track last weekend sounded bad ...and looked ok too...I didnt get a chance to look under the car..Right now I have the shorty style headers running into 2.5 y pipe into 3" all the way back to a dynomax..good for the street...but I really want duals.....let me no what ya come up with ok..what brand of headers would you like to run ultimately?

 

Ultimately, I wish I would have bought the Hooker Super Comps, once I get a bigger engine built next winter, I'm gonna get them because 1. they're equal length and 2. the collectors hang lower so you don't have to worry about the S-pipe to clear the cross member. These Heddman full tubes I got are good, how much better if at all than the 3/4 length I don't know, I almost bought the 3/4 length so you'd be able to run true duals easier than with the Heddman full tubes, and after they were first installed I wish I would've went that route, but I've personally never had any luck at all having shops do anything to my vehicles, especially since I had seen pictures first hand and I knew what I wanted, then I picked my car up after they hung the "exhaust" system and I could've shot somebody. I paid for the material, but dropped them as a sponsor and told them to basically suck me for the labor since a pre-schooler could've done better-that's why I'm gonna do the rest myself. I know what I what, and it's hard getting people to understand or their lack of fabbing to make what I want a reality-even when I took them a TON of pictures to go off of-just plain idiots.
