Here are some photos and a video of the z from today. The wife and I had a good time and there was a good turnout. Thanks to Pat for rolling with me.

Joe, did you happen to run into a couple of guys, Drew and Mike? Mike had a red GTO, Drew would have been in either a blue WS6 or an orange TBSS. They're buddies of mine who went up. Awesome numbers btw man

Wish I could have gone. Worked till 7 am this morning and I"m about to go back in.... bleh.

Joebot8484 · 05-25-2013, 05:50 PM

I did meet a guy with a red GTO that had a blower on it from a ZL1! Not sure if that's your buddies car.

And SSmike is getting his wish, car is going back in the shop this week. Ugh, but I had known this would probably would happen anyways.

ssmike · 05-26-2013, 03:16 PM

Yay! The weather is getting better already!

Seriously though it sucks that it has to go back in! Is there a problem?

Ron_Robinson1 · 05-26-2013, 04:43 PM

Not really a problem, it's just running a little too rich for me, Mike even said it probably would... on the dyno it's fine, but it needs a street tune.

I'm sure you know this, but street tunes are different, the car is never under load on the dyno, they can simulate weight for dyno numbers and close A/F but that's about it. Street tunes are more precise but also more time consuming. Not to mention they have to do 2-3rd gear pulls to redline (maybe even 4th, not sure). I know 3rd gear in my car is over 117-120. And not to mention smashing it in 3rd gear as soon as it hits boost it gets swirly. So they will have fun doing that.

Good luck with it! How long is it gonna take Mike to do the street tune?

He says I can schedule a appointment and wait for a afternoon. Or just drop it off. The within a couple days pic it up, If I do that option it's a little cheaper

Couple days ain't too bad! Maybe he'll find a few more HP to put a smile on your face!
