your sig is too big.

But to answer your question, me and my buddy don are gonna be there.

and thirdly, when u gonna start modding that damn car of yours?

 

I'm going along with several of my buddies.

 

a female friend of mine wants me to go to sears point with her tommorow, she's gonna let me borrow her slicks.

so to answer your question, not me

 

I will be there but i wont be racing.

 

sucks wish I could go

 

i hope we get to line up

 

well after my tuneup, im going to gut my cats but i need to get a pair of o2 sims by today. If i can't get them then i wont be going.

 

Travis are you running for sure tommorow???????

 

did you call force fed? i know they have them cause thats were i bought my set for the trans am when i had it before it got jacked!!!!!!

 

i got mine 60 bucks shipped off of some dude on ls1tech brand new

 

well i needed them locally cuz i had my car up on jackstands since 12pm. THe car still on jackstands. Done with the tune up. Right now i have the passenger side cat off. gonna proceed to take out the driver side cat tomorrow morning and gut them out tomorrow. My friend has a pair of o2 sims that he would let me borrow so im set. If everything goes well, i'll be heading up there. like around 5ish. what time u guys are heading out?

 

im leaving placerville around 4pm. come on up to say hi, red iroc, cant miss it. looks stock, has a pee on honda sticker on the hatch. also a gunmetal nova should be around me with a small cowl.

im the tall skinny kid.

ill look for your black TA. anything on it that stands out?

 

An Indian (from india) that drives it. Very rare to see that. other then that nothing stands out on it. I'll keep an eye out for ur ride

 

ok american-indian see ya there

 

didnt get the time to put the column in damn work damn 6am shift ill beat on the pile of turd next week


ill still be there but gonna cut out early i have to finish my truck tommorrow night too....

who is gonna go next week

 

just to answer a few questions about the car from the other thread. It was owned by the guy's mom for a long time and the guy just bought it from her and sold it a few months later I guess he ended up buying a motorcycle or something . Anyways, the mods were brand new to it so I don't think it lived a life of racing. It was owned by the state if I recall. Be cool to race Harjeet, that would probably be close? I'll be leaving work at 4:30.

 

well bolted up everything up, but i didn't gut my cats. SO i'll be running with the clog cats still

 

I'll be going up there.

 

i went up there last week, was only 2 third gens, they were not real nice cars and one was a big POS the week i decide NOT to go with my roommates (who are up there now) you guys go!

 

hey harjeet i went to sears point after all, left early though because i got knocked out of the brackets. how did u do man?

 

Traviz, what did you run. I went up there but i didnt see you run and i went to your car but you wernt there. I saw a ws6 run, it looked like phat89's but im not sure. There were too many imports and most of the V-8s were slow so i left. First time going to sac but i like sears point better.

 

I talked to travis and here what everyone ran

TraviZ-13.4@105
CaliZ-13.2@???
Phat89-13.4@???
porkyzilla-14.7-15.1@???


Im sure they'll post up when they get home

 

Dang Robby, looks like that LS1's mods have you close to 12's.
All 3 of you high rollers edged me out of the top 5, doh!

Sorry I missed your calls Travis/Eric, I was swamped with stuff to do and couldn't make it.
If all goes well in the next week, I could be a homeowner!
It takes a lot of work and time though to get things done.

 

I am dissapointed with my times, but not very dissapointed, at least im not running 14's.. but i am not running 12's. Few things I want to take care of before I go again which includes finishing the exhaust and getting an actual wideband tune.

-time to go update the nor cal fastest.

hey del what mph were you running? i have 105 on avg.

 

Congratulations Del, that is a big step and I wish you the best bro

 

hey eric i was glad u were able to show up. better luck next time. you think fuel injectors will fix all your issue?

 

ya, partial driver partial car but who knows the car started missin a little bit and boggin out lost alot of power the injectors arent doin so hot....oh well

ill put an afpr on there and change to the 24's now that its not gonna be sold for a while or maybe not at all i just dont know

even launching at 3 grand and slippin the clutch it still bogged out... oh well ill go in the next couple of weeks

 

hows your timing? by 2k, im pulling all 35 degrees.

 

I had a good time, it was fun to get out there and race. Travis' car sounded awesome, I love the idle on it. Even getting there a bit late, I was able to get 5 runs in! My first run was about 30 seconds after teching in lol, and ran a 13.3 @ 106. My other runs were also pretty consistant low 13's, my best that night being a 13.1 @ 108 mph! I think this car has potential to be in the 12's with some traction! Hopefully I'll install my Ls6 intake, March balancer, get it tuned, and trap 110! Much more fun to drive than the 305, that's for damn sure.

 

ill update the other thread robby

u think u will ever miss thirdgens?

whats your brother think?

 

I still really like thirdgens, just not the 305 TPI ones lol. I just like both I guess, the focus is just going to be this car for a while until I feel like getting back into the thirdgen world. Think about all the work you've done to your car and all that knowledge you've had to pick up and all the trial and error you've done to have done what you've done with your car. I don't have all that time to do that with college right around the corner. As for my brother, he doesn't really care about it lol, he just thinks of it as another car.

 

My best time was a 13.43 @107.93mph. G-ride my car looks totally stock. Only thing that stands out are my sequential taillights. Robby ur car is a definatly a beast. It definatly needs a dyno tune, after that, hello mid 12's. Travis ur car is fast no question about that. need some fine tuning, that car will desimate all. Me on the other hand need to get my long tubes any y-pipe so i can get my damn ses light turned off. Eric, nice meeting you, ur car is quick. All ya car sounds wicked. dammit i need my cutout. Hey robby, welcome to the world of ls1

 

my slip

RT: .090
60': 1.977
330: 5.685
1/8: 8.65 @ 83.16
1000': *Didn't record for some reason*
1/4: 13.42 @ 103.79

Told ya she just needed a little traction Still not powershifting with that horrible headwind and the subs in the back. Didn't launch very hard at all, i fear the 10 bolt rear

Harjeet, we ended up going because the movie theater's air conditioning was busted Where was the fire on 80?

 

Barely 102. That's TPI for ya b1tches!
Nice times for you too Tony.
Another 13.4 to edge out my 13.5, doh!
All of you with your 105+mph's should be high 12's!
What were your 60's??

 

my 13.1 was a 2.1 or 2.2

 

That 108 of yours Robby is good for 12.5's!
Strap on some slicks bud and you're set.
How'd it feel to pick up 2+ full seconds and 20mphs? haha.

 

You all SUCK with your ls1's and 13.*'s!I guess I would have lower times if I didn't have kids, maybe I'll make'em pay me rent.

 

haha steve, i know the feeling.

I'm sure if i get this house, mortgage > GTA
thanks Vin! btw.

 

It sucks how much all these bills take away from the cars.I remember before I got married I pretty much had rent, insurance, and mod money.
It's taking all my extra cash just to keep this clunker on the road.Seems like once I fix one thing something else goes out.I still have to spend 300 bucks to replace the axles, it's all going to repairs rather than mods.

 

That's a 3rd gen for ya man.
What can ya expect from a 17+ y/o car.

Hey Robby, time to change that avatar.
I'm one of the last few with "TPI Inside"

 

my 60 foot was 2.0's

but once it got colder then i was getting 2.1's

-gotta go update for tony now.

 

Damn great time tony. The fire was in dixon south west from 80, when i got there they were no fire so i dunno.

 

It was hot out there too, im sure if it was coolder your guys times would have been better

 

Hey guys Forgot to mention, but thought its pretty cool (del:READ) my buddy Don, with his old nova, stock corvette TPI engine with blockhugger headers and a T5 tranny was grabbing 13.8's 13.9's all night.

its cool what a weight savings will do to a car huh?

 

I saw that, first time i've seen an old school nova with tpi. What those things weigh 2700,2800lbs?

 

How much does that Nova weigh?

Can only imagine where I'd be if I lost some weight.
I'm probably tipping the scales at close to 3700 with me in it.
I bet if I knocked out 200lbs I'd have a shot at a low 13.

 

I'd rather have some luxaries (sp?) and some more wieght and a slower time.

 

Oh yeah, most definitely.
I've always held that I'd keep all options (luxuries) and run it at the street like I do at the track.
I'm not going to remove a/c, smog, etc, but there's ways to remove some more weight I'm sure.
I should get one of those mini-starters to save some, any recommendations?
Already got a lighter Edel. water pump.
Possibly the back seats out for the track, who knows.
I've got my 1 10" sub too, but will leave that in.

 

my 60' was 2.23
