I know how she is on the street, and she is a ton of fun and pretty quick! That's all I need.

OSW has been crazy crowded since West Palm closed, but they are having Funday Sunday on the 24th. I'm hoping the ricers can't get out of bed.

I would think more than that. I watched a video from one of the converter manufacturers where the took a stock Camaro SS and installed a 3200 and picked up 1/2 second on street tires. And with the power I have at the wheels now, should be a nice run. Just gotta go do it.

I haven't been over there since I ran the 12.68. Went to watch some stuff but it always seemed to be full of foreign stuff. And didn't they used to have the Funday's on the first Sunday of the Month? Or do they have too much stuff going on now. Thanks for the update.

You need to do it Wayne!!!!

Even the wife took her Mini Clubman John Cooper Works down the track on our last track day. She did a 13.2 & 103 which equals the best I’ve found from the car magazines. That little 4 cylinder turbo AWD makes 306hp & 323tq.

Holy crap Batman!! That's pretty cool!! I never knew that. Yeah, I might just have to do it this fall when the weather cools down. Just too friggin hot now.

Ya know - I wondered if that was for me.

I haven't been back since October. It pains me that the Max package has made 4 whole passes in two years. It's been a best of 11.3@123.5, with a good chunk left on the table. That was at 3,960lbs race weight.

It really deserves a 10 second slip. This fall is threatening to ruin me again on getting much of any drag racing in. I've got a little more weight out of the car, and got a few other things dialed in, so I think the 10s are right there in reach, just need a few passes to nail them down. Maybe next month...

They are no longer a regular thing. The have not had them for a while but are having two back to back at the end of the month.
